jesus of revelations is wack. That's quite the reward/revenge death cult. You should be proud.
Atheist communist regimes are responsible for more deaths this world has ever seen.
Firstly no that would be Christian regimes Hitler was a catholic for example and the holy wars in Europe went on for centuries killing millions.
Secondly any deaths by regimes that happen to be atheist are not done in the name of no god.
Stalin was a tyrant and killed to maintain power, this is different from killing in the name of nuggan.

Quote:Due to complicated mechanisms in belief, it seems to the Nugganites that Nuggan sets a new Abomination every few days. And so therefore he does. The Book of Nuggan (holy text of the Nugganites) is published in a large ring-binder, so that new Abominations can be appended as they are set forth by Nuggan. The Nugganites call it a living testament, a holy book that truly grows.
It has now been proven that Nuggan is effectively insane. By the end of Monstrous Regiment, he has declared babies and the color blue to be Abominations. In the climactic scene of the same book, the Grand Duchess Annagovia, manifesting through Wazzer Goom, declares that Nuggan is effectively dead (which suggests that he may now have faded to small god status - the mere possibility of a god). This explains why she has been reluctantly called back to life of a sort, to fill the void left by Nuggan's passing, and to answer the prayers of a people who have been conditioned for fifty-odd years to see her as their saviour. Vimes the Butcher has backed this up, stating that Ankh-Morporkian priests have confirmed that Nuggan has dwindled to nothing but a voice.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
