Anti-Theism
Question
Hello and blessings to the Rabbi 🙂
Two questions:
1. Is the Rabbi familiar with Christopher Hitchens's books? I didn't find any specific reference to him.
2. What is your opinion regarding the attitude toward the anti-theist movement that he belongs to? In their broad view, religion is the source of all problems and must be fought against (in their eyes, religion itself is a pernicious evil, containing nothing good, only harm—to theists themselves and to humanity in general).
Answer
- I've heard the name, but no.
- Come on—what do you think I think about those ideas? What kind of question is that?
