Hitchens’ razor

Hitchens’ razor encapsulates that incisive, no-nonsense, almost scholastic dialectic

Christopher Hitchens had an incisive mind and a reputation for the unceremonial dismissal of foolish opponents. If you were planning to take on Hitch you definitely would have needed to bring your best arguments. Hitchens’ razor encapsulates that incisive, no-nonsense, almost scholastic dialectic in a critical thinking principle that could hardly have been named after anyone else.
