Christopher Hitchens, Surrender of Reason

I made this image, using the Hitch with a quote of his. :) Faith is the surrender of the mind; it’s the surrender of reason, it’s the surrender of the only thing that makes us different from other mammals. It’s our need to believe, and to surrender our skepticism and our reason, our yearning to discard that and put all our trust or faith in someone or something, that is the sinister thing to me.

This image reminds me of this post by the Friendly Atheist last week. How can an animal have faith or even be aware that such a concept exists? Can they? I doubt it, but its hard to ever know. More importantly, would an animal ever need faith. I can’t see why. Perhaps that’s why they’re being blessed? Also, is this exclusively for pets but not all animals? I wonder why they’d be so exclusive. You can also see his follow-up post concluding that dogs can be atheists...
