The guy is an idiot, I reckon he had a dysfunctional mixed-up upbringing.
Sad because he has so much potential.

If he has a drinking problem, it maybe be because he gets death threats for criticizing religion

aya: Have you ever seen Christopher Hitchens interviewed? He's a sad individual. His drinking, anger, intolerance, etc. problems did not start when that book on religion was published. He is very intelligent, but has some really out-there views. For example, that the war in Iraq is totally righteous, and that Dubya is a hero. And he gets belligerent with anyone who doesn't share his opinions.

^ In addition to being unable to look at things from different perspectives than his own.
As an atheist, I've read his latest book, hoping to maybe see something a little different than what's already been written by others. And it really wasn't much different than any of the other dogmatic, "believe as I do or your stupid" stuff that others have dished out.
