Thanks for sharing the video. I'm now watching it and find it very interesting.
I may comment on it later.

Although the question "Does God Exists?" was not answered in the debate, I must admit that it was interesting to see both debaters in action. Frank Turek presented his case very well, even though there were serious flaws in his reasoning. He answered questions politely and to the point. Christopher Hitchens however came across as a arrogant snob, who dodged many questions to get his own message across (why religion is evil, etc.). What I would have expected from him is 1. to explain why (he thinks) that there is no God; 2 to point out the flaws in Turek's arguments and 3. properly answer Turek's and the audience's questions. Hitchens scored some points, but most what he said was not related to the scope of the "Does God Exists?" debate . Frank Turek was therefore IMHO the clear winner of the debate, even though he couldn't prove that God really exists.
