Hitchens is a drunkard but I agree with his standpoint towards religion. Nothing else though because he does have an extremist point of view. How is Dawkins perverting Darwin's theory? "But the simple fact is there are serious problems in some of the claims he makes" Yes, there are a lot of criticisms. But I like how he, and no one else, brings issues forward that are very important. Like the health insurance crisis in his latest movie. Now don't get me wrong, I don't hold any of these people in absolute terms as I accept their faults, no one is perfect and they are all human. But at the basis of their character I can see their intent which I agree with. Because in some of his essays he talks about the need to evolved beyond religion as if religion is somehow linked to genetics.

The second assainsation attempts occured on April 10, 1957. Pavelic survived, but had a bullet lodged in his spine. April 24, 1957 the Argentine government agrees to extradite PAvelic to SFRY. Pavelic believing this will happen refuses to go to the hospital and instead goes into hiding. It is believed that he went to paraguay where Alfredo Stroessner was president and Pavelic was given asylum as Stroessner was helping Nazi's evade justice. He was in Paraguay briefly and fled to Spain. 1959 on December 28 he dies in Madird due to complications from the bullet.

Hm, I haven't seen this, and if it's not too much to ask, I would like to see an example. Indoctornation doesn't have anything to do with genetics. It's a forceful act of brainwashing that children undergo without choice or personal opinion. I do believe however that the naiveness the majority of people posses is somehow related to genetics. The willfulness of listening to other people rather than making a choice by yourself seems to be a common characteristic.

I have no heroes that I look up to since I am the hero and everyone else is under myself.
P.S. Christopher Hitchens is the prophet of Atheism! Thank god i am a atheist!
