That’s the question Christopher Hitchens and Douglas Wilson debated recently at Christianity Today. I expected Hitchens to win the debate while disagreeing with his position. I was wrong on both counts. By the end of the debate, the question had narrowed down to: Can any moral propositions be affirmed without affirming theism? I think Hitchens is correct in answering yes, but he is so inept at arguing for his position that Wilson wins the day.
