I wouldn't copy and paste this as a reply but you could always ask the author to kindly show some respect for a dead man and not essentially ban him to Hell in the newspaper right after his death.
This crap gets old when people say things like "bet he is surprised" sure many people say they aren't happy that they believe Hitchens is in Hell but they don't need to vocalize it all the time. We get it, we know that they think Hitchens is going to Hell the sensitive thing to do for Hitchens, his friends, and those who cared about him is simply to leave it alone.
According to Christian theology they are not going to gain anything by telling people that those who are already gone are going to Hell. They simply need to leave it alone and worry about those who are alive and be sensitive to the livings needs. There are a decent number of Christians who wouldn't say something like this not because they don't believe it because they know all it will do is cause pain and hostility.
Someone saying "Well this is what we believe is true!" is fine and all but whatever happened to loving sensitivity. The problem with a decent number, but certainly not all, of Christians is they follow the rules but lack the idea of actual love. This is a stupid, useless, and hurtful thing to publish especially right after his death.
