Christopher Hitchens on Karl Rove and George Bush

Fabulous, fabulously funny, interview with Christopher Hitchens in New York Magazine on religion, including this on Karl Rove:

I know something which is known to few but is not a secret. Karl Rove is not a believer, and he doesn’t shout it from the rooftops, but when asked, he answers quite honestly. I think the way he puts it is, “I’m not fortunate enough to be a person of faith.”

And this on George Bush:

He claims that Jesus got him off the demon drink. He doesn’t believe it. His wife said, “If you don’t stop, I’m leaving and I’m taking the kids.” You can say that you got help from Jesus if you want, but that’s just a polite way of putting it in Texas.

Lots more. But there's one question he doesn't answer. If there isn't a God, how come Christopher Hitchens was created?

He might well say that he was not created rather he was procreated
