1a2bcio8 Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 That's some sad news. I saw a video of him talking about his cancer at the start of the year. He mentioned that his chances were quite low. There was something about him that made me think he would survive though. I didn't really appreciate the type of person he became to be honest. I much preferred his politics prior to his embedding in the US mainstream media. I think the motives behind his political positions were questionable. His arguments against religion, as with Dawkins, usually involved straw men. Within debates about religion he could be quite specious with rhetoric and unkind to those whom he debated with. None the less, he was clearly an astute man whom gets my respect in many senses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
