Christopher Hitchens was a powerful writer, speaker, and communicator. This quote really sums up how we need to beware of those who are "offended" (good to put it in quotes!) when we say or do something that doesn't physically harm them, but they just don't like it and don't have the intellectual arguments to debunk it. I respect this guy's work. You'll want to check out some of his work for yourself. Enjoy! - Terry Brock

Great mind indeed and he is right on point.

P.S. I'm really offended by today's weather ;)

Great reply, @tmayd! You made me laugh!

He was a magnificent thinker and speaker, sadly missed.

Yes indeed. I remember I had the chance to meet him in person once. What a brilliant, outstanding man. He is sorely missed. Thank you, @gmuxx for your comment.

Wow, what an incredible honor!
