Daily Hitchens and YouTube.
I've created another YT channel. When I posted my thoughts on not starting a new Hitchens YT channel, I was thinking of the massive work it would take to upload all the old videos to new one. I'm not going to do that. For the time being I'm leaving the DHYT channel as it is and use this new one.

The Vatican is planning a new initiative to reach out to atheists and agnostics in an attempt to improve the church's relationship with non-believers. Pope Benedict XVI has ordered officials to create a new foundation where atheists will be encouraged to meet and debate with some of the Catholic Church's top theologians. Read the article here.
