So, where is that evidence for an invisible magic man again? We’ve been waiting for 5,000 years for supernaturalists to deliver the goods on this one, and all we’ve heard so far is yet more blind assertions (on top of the blind assertions contained in their favourite mythologies) and apologetic hot air. When are we going to see some substance for a change? A trite “read my book” will be counted as an evasion. Here’s a clue for our good rabbi: if he genuinely had real evidence for his magic man, he’d be joining those other Jews who possess shiny gold medals featuring an embossed relief of a certain former dynamite manufacturer, and the world’s scientific journals would be queueing up to print his findings. That this isn’t happening tells those of us who paid attention in science classes something important.

Oh, and our good rabbi might want to learn what atheism actually IS, before erecting the tired old “atheism is a belief” trope that we’ve all been bored out of our skulls with by supernaturalists.

Finally, if our good rabbi wants to accuse Hitchens of fabrication, all well and good. It’ll be fun watching the resulting defamation suit play out in court. It’ll be even more fun when Hitchens, upon seeing this, delivers his usual excoriating demolition of the canards erected above.
