Hitch was a fucking legend. Man, I miss that guy.
Me too. Along with Sagan. I'd love to hear what they both think of the shit that's going on today.

Hitch was heading down the right wing path when he died. I wouldn't have been surprised if he had ended up on that side of politics today. Sagan on the other hand was dyed-in-the-wool leftie.

Okay so I may have been mistaken about his politics. Thanks for making me actually go look. I still don't agree with the idolisation that he gets from some in the antitheist crowd - his book was one of the reasons why I left that particular cause. Not the only reason, but one of them.
