It's sad that his theory is heavily misinformed, especially since Stalin took over and made it a Totalitarian regime state... Sad

His views on religion were certainly controversial Smile

Still, that does not mean that there may not be an occasional good idea which can be extracted and used.

Exactly! Most political ideologies do tend to fail, sadly. Non-critical thinkers lack beliefs they were not taught, or merely think it is wrong, as well as being indoctrinated.
I may be lying in the gutter, but I'm staring at the stars.
