The inevitable outcome of arguing against renowned author, journalist and anti-theist Christopher Hitchens
The Hitchslap is dispensed usually to morons such as Sean Hannity and Bill OReilly. His
2007 Hitchslap against Sean Hannity on "Hotseat" was made even more entertaining due to the fact that Hitchens was quite obviously
drunk at the time, and still made Hannity look
like a tool.
Hannity -
"To be an
atheist, you have to believe that it is possible, which I think is a far greater leap of faith, that
something can be created out of nothing. When you look at the majesty and sophistication, and the intricacy of the universe that we do know and comprehend. You have to believe that somehow this energy could have existed on its own, and i do not believe that, that to me is a leap of faith "
Hitchens-
"You give me the awful impression, i hate to have to say it, of someone who hasn't read any of the arguments against your position ever. You want your god to take personal responsibility for the huge number of collapsing stars and imploding galaxies and destroyed universes and failed solar systems that have
left us in this
tiny corner, on the one planet on this petty solar
system that can support life on some of its surface for some of the time. You want a creator who filled this
earth with species,
99% of which are now extinct already"
Everyone else -
"oh my god what a fucking Hitchslap!"
