Hitchens vs. Hitchens

Christopher (atheist/neocon/liberal) and Peter (Christian/paleocon) Hitchens have an interesting family dynamic: from the Guardian.

Audience member: You've been casting furtive glances at each other throughout the whole event but you've never yet made eye contact. Would you for this final moment, look each other in the eye?

CH: You don't know what we've just been through. We were asked by James Naughtie to do an on-radio handshake, [and] I thought it was a handshake made for radio.

Audience member: So will you do it?

[CH and PH look briefly at each other]

PH: They want everything to be all right.

CH: They want a happy ending - that's their problem.
