Might want to google "the 4 horsemen" of atheism..... might be some other things you've missed.

^This. This should be a requirement of all atheists, plus a good reading of Peter Boghassian and his famous manual.

Sam is great. Very intelligent and I do enjoy watching his debates.

I do prefer Hitchens however. I prefer his style.

Sam Harris, masturbator.

Of course I feel rather drunk. Too bad I an not drinking.

Old age is the biggest killer of humans.

Lol I thought of that when making it.

It's a shame he had to pass away.

I miss Hitch, the original master debater in my humble opinion...I own all of his books, and have watched most of his debates, the man was brilliant. sam isn't bad, and I hope he continues his good work for many, many years.

I agree Hitch was amazing and yeah me too, I hope we learn of and get new people too. Not to replace the old one's but to continue and grow the cause.

You know, I wish the word "debator" was replaced with "bator."
