Christopher Hitchens makes a powerful case for the "most important minority in the world": non-believers. He argues that atheists and humanists, who live ethical lives without religion and are constantly "insulted" by religious violence and superstition, choose not to "reply in kind." In a compelling challenge, he asks why this civilized restraint is so rarely acknowledged, and why all religions are treated as "equivalent glimpses of the untrue." #ChristopherHitchens #Atheism #Humanism #Secular #Ethics #Minority #Religion #Freethinker #ReasonRevolution
