Hitchens, Dawkins, and eradicating religion

In one of the more gripping scenes from the documentary Collision, Christopher Hitchens said that if he had the ability to eradicate religion by de-converting the last religious person in existence he wouldn’t do it. This statement was nothing surprising to me, but to Professor Dawkins it was a bombshell of a saying.

Given that, firstly, was anyone here as shocked as Professor Dawkins? Secondly, if given the opportunity, would you allow religion to remain in existence if you had the opportunity to?

TAGGED: ATHEISM, CHRISTOPHER HITCHENS, RICHARD DAWKINS
