[[Christopher Hitchens]] is one of the principal leaders of the [[New Atheism]] movement. At the end of the [[Christian apologetics|Christian apologist]] [[William Lane Craig]] vs. atheist Christopher Hitchens debate there was an audience question and answer period.[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FofDChlSILU VIDEO]  The first audience member to ask a question twice asked [[Christopher Hitchens]] to label bestiality as an immoral act, but he refused to do so.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FofDChlSILU Christopher Hitchens vs William Lane Craig - Does God Exist Debate]</ref> Dr. Craig said the question posed to Hitchens was a good one and it helped illustrate 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] </ref>

=== UK TV regulators and bestiality ===

 +

On  May 26, 2005, [[LifeSiteNews]] reported:
 +
{{cquote|Richard Hooper, deputy chairman of Ofcom (the UK’s TV and radio regulating body), has indicated that the long-anticipated new broadcasting code makes no definite provisions against the broadcasting of so-called ‘challenging material’ on public air-waves, including shows which deal with sex with animals, so long as it is in the proper ‘context’.
 +
 +
“A programme about sex with animals? Yes, it’s potentially possible,” said Ofcom deputy chairman, Richard Hooper. “It all comes down to context.” Mr. Hooper may have been thinking of a channel 4 documentary on bestiality, Animal Passions, which was aired last year. According to a Media Guardian article that particular documentary received seventy-five complaints at the time, from viewers who were concerned that it “normalized bestiality”.
 +
 +
Mr. Hooper’s statement serves to confirm what pro-family activists have long prophesied. That is, this new age of sexual libertarianism, which, amongst other things, allows for and normalizes homosexuality, will quickly become an age of ‘no-holds-barred’ in regards to sexual deviation unless a return to a proper understanding of sexuality is initiated.<ref>[http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/uk-tv-regulators-ok-bestiality UK TV Regulators OK Bestiality - LifeSiteNews - May 26, 2005]</ref>}}

=== The Guardian and bestiality ===
 +
 +
On September 19, 2011, the British newspaper ''The [[Guardian]]'' published a favorable article on bestiality entitled ''Improbable research: bestiality saddled with the wrong image'' which mentioned a man's "long courtship" with a horse and also his two "mare-wives".<ref>[http://www.theguardian.com/education/2011/sep/19/improbable-research-bestiality-horses-intelligence ''Improbable research: bestiality saddled with the wrong image'']</ref>

{{cquote|Rodgers, whose Twitter feed uses the name "shebarodgers," told the Metro she got down on one knee to propose and ascertained from Sheba's wagging tail that she said yes.

She said the ceremony, which ended with a kiss, was the perfect way to mark what Sheba means to her. She told the Metro her new life partner was never unkind to her and the dog is always happy.<ref>[http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/woman-marries-dog-totally-b-h-article-1.1717772 British woman marries her dog]</ref>}}

{{cquote|An exclusive art gallery has been criticised for displaying a highly offensive painting just yards from The Ritz hotel and where it could be seen by children.
 +
 +
Hotel guests were said to have been disgusted after seeing the image by the late British artist Robert Lenkiewicz – which depicts bestiality with a goat.
 +
 +
It was displayed on a revolving plinth in the front window of the Clarendon Fine Art gallery, around the corner from the five-star hotel in Piccadilly.
 +
 +
The picture – which is owned by a private collector and is expected to sell for around £30,000 – was still on display yesterday, although last night the gallery said it had been removed.
