Congratulations. You have made a post unrelated to literature, writing or philosophy on /lit/.

Judging by the quality and content of your post, it probably belongs in: >>>/b/

The article is about him writing is last thoughts and final book, how is it not about literature?

>> No.2913258

From the article:

>The author of 17 books, including God is Not Great, The Trial of Henry Kissinger, How Religion Poisons Everything, and a memoir, Hitch-22, still wrestled with the questions of faith and death."

Whoever wrote this needs to get into the habit of actually researching their topic.

Yeah I noticed this too. It's writen by DAILY MAIL REPORTER and they usually get away with shit like this.

Also, I didn't realize God Is Not Great had an alternative subtitle of The Case Against Religion.

I wonder why he allowed that, since he was so strongly against censorship

A Daily Mail writer not doing proper research? Why I never!
