Im not exactly sure what exactly you are arguing with here. I never said marxism-leninism is "equivalent to atheism". (Though it does promote atheism as a fundamental tenant). Anyway, that's the second time now you've accused me of saying something I didn't say.
Stalin was an atheist man who persecuted and killed non atheist people so that his country would be atheist. This is no different from a religious leader who killed those who were not of his religion so that his country would be of that religion. Of course, they are both seeking power and those killings are a means to gain power.
Chad tried to differentiate the 2, and that doesn't fly.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
