Line 17: − + − [[File:Sheep public domain picture.jpg|thumbnail|250px|right]] − On August 12, 2012, an anonymous blog-post entitled ''Atheism: A religion of degenerates'' declared: − {{cquote|Christopher Hitchens, who was an atheist and a drunkard, was arguably the most popular atheists [sic] in the 20th century and at the beginning of the 21st century as well. At the end of his debate with Christian apologists [sic] William Lance [sic] Craig, there was an audience question and answer period. During this question and answer period, twice Hitchens was asked to condemn bestiality, but he refused to do it each time he was asked. − − The Bible teaches that bestiality is a perversion and, under the Old Testament Jewish Law, punishable by death (Exodus 22:19, Leviticus 18:23, Leviticus 20:15 and Deuteronomy 27:21). I feel sorry for all the sheep, little dogs and horses who have been raped by depraved atheists because prominent atheists have refused to condemn bestiality. Atheism has no basis for objective morality so it is not surprising that atheist degenerates refuse to condemn bestiality.<ref>[http://conservativetriumphs.blogspot.com/2012/08/atheism-religion-of-degenerates.html ''Atheism: A religion of degenerates'']</ref>}}

, 17:40, December 11, 2012Deleted quote from an anonymous blog, which added nothing to the entry and was, in all probability, written by the same person who added it to the article.
[[Bestiality]] is the act of engaging in sexual relations with an animal.
[[Bestiality]] is the act of engaging in sexual relations with an animal.
At the end of a debate with [[Christian apologetics|Christian apologist]] [[William Lane Craig]], Hitchens was asked by an audience member whether it was "good that the Bible prohibits humans from having sex with animals." Hitchens answered that moral codes of this kind do not need a supernatural author, and that Biblical proscriptions of practices such as homosexuality and bestiality were indicative of the Bible's male authorship. Humans are genetically programmed against such practices as cannibalism and incest, and any society that did engage in such behavior would tend to die out.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FofDChlSILU Christopher Hitchens vs William Lane Craig - Does God Exist Debate]</ref> Dr. Craig responded that the question illustrated that atheism cannot offer objective moral standards (see: [[Atheism and morality]]).<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FofDChlSILU Christopher Hitchens vs William Lane Craig - Does God Exist Debate]. The question and answer cited occur about one hour and 50 minutes in. </ref>
