That there is a difference between application and what's on paper, that communism by Marx's position wouldn't call on the slaughter of theists while communism by Stalin would. The second thing that I said above was that Stalin slew not just theists but atheists as well, the numbers for the atheists can't seem as large as the christian numbers only because there were less of them and they were harder to pick out. You can't exactly figure out what a person is if they have no belief - it was only by the fact that these atheists were in political or social opposition to Stalin that they were bought to death. It isn't such a complicated fact to grab, Stalin killed anyone who was against him or held opposing ideologies. It can only be hard to understand by a theist in denial of the fact that religion is policy making and thus Stalin sought to be rid of that as well. That by doing this all Stalin was doing was exercising his powers as a despot. |
But that doesnt disprove my points. Communism IS agaisnt organised religion adn Stalin DID persecute theists.An atheist Stalin with communist regime,(which is atheism supported ideology) persecuted, enslaved and killed theists, because they were religios people. He also did persecute atheists but not because they were atheists, because he was an atheist himself
