In a story that has headlined as "
Hitchens Unhinged" and "
Hitchens Bullies Priest," the best-writing and least tactful of the modern atheists has played the role of the "angry atheist" as well as any.
According to the sources,
Hicthens appeared inebriated and especially raunchy while speaking at an expensive dinner club in New York. A local 9-11 hero priest - who also happened to be a member of the dinner club board - used the comment and question session to confront
Hitchens on his extreme vulgarity, and then embarrassed the atheist by focusing on his apparent drunkenness. After a short exchange in which Hitchens tried to villify the Priest for having stood up, the event was abruptly ended.
Then the anger mounted. After a respite to the men's room, a red-faced Hitchens emerged and charged the Priest literally in his face, to the extent that witnesses say a body guard had to restrain the atheist. Hitchens yelled and blistered all ears with shouts of "child-molester" and such aimed at the respected Priest.
The irony about this is that it took place on May 1, 2007 -- six months ago, with hardly a peep from the press. Had it been Rick Warren, the now late D. James Kennedy, or some other high-profile Christian, you can bet every tv, radio, mag, paper, and coffee shop window would be announcing the horrors.
But stay tuned, because these brawling atheists like Hitchens, and the press that loves to hide their evils so well, are the same people who want to eradicate God from our country, so they themselves can rewrite our moral code, and your child's curriculum. . . .
Except, that is, for public school curricula. They wrote those a long time ago. Now not even the dinner clubs are safe.
