If you think this is controversial see his catholic church speech.
Would love him as a dinner guest.

Christopher Hitchens was a great writer, he wrote a couple of books about Cyprus and one called "The trial of Henry Kissinger" At one time he was married to a Cypriot.

Hitches hated Kissinger with a passion .And, quite rightly so, in my opinion, said of Mother Teresa. This woman who said to the people of Africa " aids is bad but not as bad as condoms" To the people of Haiti after suffering a dreadful earthquake this is God's punishment ". Religion, in the words of Mark Twain, " the Bible is a mass of fables and traditions, mere mythology but we all know it's a lot worse than that, look no further than what's happening with I.s.I.s.

"And in the beginning God created etc." Or, "And in the beginning there was a Big Bang etc."
One is a belief the other a fact. Good ol' Stephen.

Re: A Question that was put to Stephen Fry
And to think he could have been prosecuted under Ireland's Blasphemy laws,introduced in 2009/10.
It beggars belief that in the 21st century such laws still exist.
It won't be long before laws are brought in for disrespecting Father Christmas..

Re: A Question that was put to Stephen Fry
Hence the reason there shouldn't be any Blasphemy laws.
