Peter Hitchens is an author, broadcaster, journalist, and commentator. He writes for The Mail on Sunday. He has published numerous books, including The Abolition of Britain, The Rage Against God, The War We Never Fought and The Phoney Victory.


While this isn't technically about atheism, I think it's on topic given Hitchens' widely publicised views on religion. With that in mind, the post-interview section gives a unique insight into how Peter acts when he feels he has been wronged, and how his approach to reason and justification changes in that light.

Further, the interview was supposed to go on to the topic of God but Peter had already decided to storm out prior to reaching the topic (though he doesn't actually storm out for another 15 or so minutes)

You can also follow his ongoing reaction to the interview, and its subsequent release, on his X (formerly known as Twitter) feed: https://twitter.com/ClarkeMicah

I wish he were a little bit more like his brother...
