Christopher Hitchens dies after battle with cancer

I knew it was going to happen, but im still gutted and upset. Such a great man.

Im not sure if RIP is appropriate so I will just say thanks Chris
 
So long Hitch. And thanks.

“Looking up at the stars, I know quite well
That, for all they care, I can go to hell,
But on earth indifference is the least
We have to dread from man or beast.

How should we like it were stars to burn
With a passion for us we could not return?
If equal affection cannot be,
Let the more loving one be me.

Admirer as I think I am
Of stars that do not give a damn,
I cannot, now I see them, say
I missed one terribly all day.

Were all stars to disappear or die,
I should learn to look at an empty sky
And feel its total dark sublime,
Though this might take me a little time.”
― W.H. Auden
 
What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof.
Christopher Hitchens.

What a loss. RIP a great man.
