Christopher Hitchens vs Dinesh D'Souza

Christopher Hitchens vs Dinesh D'Souza | God on Trial Debate

6 років тому

God on Trial pits two of the most eloquent and influential spokesmen for atheism and Christianity against one another in what is surely one of the most spirited discussions of its kind. Celebrated atheist Christopher Hitchens matches wits with bestselling author Dinesh D'Souza before a packed house of over 2,000 people in St. Louis' elegant Powell Symphony Hall. No matter what you believe, God on Trial will challenge your prejudices and opinions on issues that are relevant to us all: faith, eternity, purpose, justice, and morality.

I'm addicted to these debates.

Dinesh consistently spoke about his admiration of Hitchens especially after his death. They were admirable friends who appreciated each other. Dinesh once said that after debates with Christopher, they would get a pizza and drink wine while discussing literature, politics, etc., and I think it is important to understand that - while watching them attack each other's core belief system - they were cordial and respectable friends who spoke very highly of one another behind closed doors.

I am glad Dinesh explained to me why lions don't donate blood. They have no sense of morals! Who have thought that. I thought it has something to do with lions having no needles. But well...

Whether or not you agree with Hitchens, you have to at least admit that he's damned good at speaking.

I'd have to say that the loser in this debate was the moderator.

I love how he always called out the audience for applauding everything

I wish they would have let that dialogue go along instead of cutting Christopher when he asked how he side-stepped the question!

@tyleranyways 3 роки тому

I LOVE that Christopher stopped and asked what he side stepped.

The shortest road to atheism lies in listening to a defense of deism.

"The truth of Darwinism, or Einstein, or Christianity has nothing to do with where we were born." That is a false argument by Dinesh. People can be born on opposite sides of the planet and develop completely different theological beliefs worshiping mountains and oceans. However, they will both build a nuclear reactor on the fact that E=MC^2.

Dinesh frequently answers the questions he would have liked to have been asked, rather than the questions he was asked.

Completely dispassionate observer here. Christopher Hitchens wiped the floor with his opponent, very eloquently, very effectively.

This is actually a "new" Hitch debate for me. Great find and thanks!

D'Souza is a weak debater - his arguments are absurdly simple. This was very disappointing.

@Jayakiran525 5 років тому

Dinesh opens with sarcastic comments and ignore the questions he cant answer ...He should not be even allowed to talk to a genius like Mr Hitchens.If you look at his closing statements,they are mostly nonsensical ,we can think of many reasons why the hell was invented or religion in that matter as an effective way of population control using fear.
