Christopher Hitchens had waited his whole life, to answer, this question, and no one, could ever had answered as superbly as hm. He perfectly sums up his whole attitude to religion.

I hesitate to defend Billy Graham because he served the global elite and was artificially propped up for that role, as well as being too ecumenical, but I think that his remarks about Jews are very misunderstood. He identified the Khazarian Jews who weren't Jews by blood but converted to Babylonian Talmudic Judaism which has nothing to do with the Judaism of the majority of Jews who follow the Torah, the first five books of the Bible. It was Jesus in Revelation 3:9 who first identified a group of Jews who weren't Jews by blood but who coopted Judaism in a sense so as to legitimize Zionism, a political ideology that accuses anyone who questions its nefarious purposes anti-Semitic. Graham was referring to Jews such as the far right religious people who have infiltrated the Knesset, people like Ben G'Vir and Bezalel Smotrich.

Please watch and share with others my four brief videos in which I present examples of scientific facts contained in the Bible, facts that the writers thousands of years ago could not have been aware of without divine knowledge given to them by Jesus Christ / The God of the Bible. And today's scientists agree with those facts!

3:25 Hitch says "I don't particularly like people from Yorkshire" - I'm pissing my pants! Hitch - I can certainly also agree with you on that point. I know many people who dislike Yorkshire folk, their dreadful accent, they're very backward, real simpletons. I know I'm not alone on this point. Hitchens, I sure as hell wish you'd been around for a lot longer.

People need to accept the fact that the late Christopher Hitchens was a ridged materialist/reductionist in his world view. He was an atheist zealot, for whom non material reality was an impossiblity. Such a person consciously truncates their perceptions to preclude any paranormal experience. Freud's most famous pupil, Carl Jung, when asked if he believed in God replied, "No" ! Jung then said that he didn't believe, but that he "Knew" God. He was trying to explain that the linguistic paradigm or human language cannot lead one to cosmic consciousness or what is euphemistically called "God". One must experience God DIRECTLY. An individual has either experienced God or has not. This is where many people erroneously equate spirituality with the mythology in the world's faiths. Mythology and spirituality are two different realities. Before the European Enlightenment, and before the axioms of the scientific method were established, mythology served to explain experience and natural phenomena through the literary paradigm (human language). Symbolic communication is a very crude and inadequate system of attempting to describe that which is transcendent. For example, I subscribe to Western medicine for my personal health care. My primary care physician is a medical doctor. I accept the precepts of that system. However, I reject its mythologies, such as Autism (mercury poisoning) and ADHD ( little boys' lack of harried working mothers' attention). Don't make the mistake of reducing one phenomenon to one phenomenon ! 🖤

What he says is very well known amongst intelligent people. What is rarely, if ever talked about is the result of the Christian, genuine Christian Reformation, how it saved us from the demonic Popery of the Middle Ages, the latter causing wars in order to try and regain its vicious hold upon the world.
