Hitchens was wrong about a lot in my view, but for many atheists he was an important figure.
He eloquently made the case for our faith in empirical evidence and the scientific knowing of reality, and he didn't pussy out at the end. Knowing he was dying, and soon on his way into that void, still looked that motherfucker in the face, and stayed frosty.
Wish he could have died from old age, though.
