Christopher will be missed. When I think of the many years I have lived on this earth, his contributions to my life are equaled only by a few individuals. What Christopher has said and written has helped me and can help all of us to more fully comprehend our world, and – I write as a theologian – theology. I am thankful for the life of Christopher Hitchens.
