Christopher Hitchens writes in his essay: "As I never tire of saying, heat is not the antithesis of light but rather the source of it."
Whoa... he never tires of saying that. Couldn't you just see that phrase written on a Judas Priest poster? Or what if it had been written on the steps leading up to the temple on the "Powerslave" album cover (IRON MAIDEN)? Then you could imagine yourself slowly ascending the steps, and with each step, reading another of the words: "Heat... is... not... the... antithesis... of... light... but... rather..." Dude I would totally just fall to my knees and be like, "Eddie (IRON MAIDEN MONSTER MASCOT), rise up out of your sarcophogus and come down here and read the immortal words of Christopher Hitchens!" But actually, then Eddie would be walking DOWN the steps, so he would read it as: "It... of... source... the... rather..." Maybe it would be best if Eddie just stayed at the top of the temple.
