WELCOME TO THE NEW WORLD ORDER...

And here you come..

I'm trying to see where parkers tan is coming from, what I said was that communism was secularism taken to an extreme.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Orthodox_Church

The year 1917 was a major turning point in Russian history, and also the Russian Orthodox Church. The Russian empire was dissolved and the Tsarist government - which had granted the Church numerous privileges - was overthrown. After a few months of political turmoil, the Bolsheviks took power in October 1917 and declared a separation of church and state. Thus the Russian Orthodox Church found itself without official state backing for the first time in its history. One of the first decrees of the new Communist government (issued in January 1918) declared freedom from "religious and anti-religious propaganda". This led to a marked decline in the power and influence of the Church.

But as I said, all of that is irrelevant seeing how there is not one communist country that placed in the top 30 of this list, making the point moot.

However FIDEL clearly stated that the top 10 countries of that list were secular, which is false.


But keep trying to make the debate about "secularism" vs "athiesm"..

SMH

So, communism is "secularism taken to an extreme," because it contains individual elements of secularism, surrounded by large additions that aren't germane to secularism at all, yet are more core to the definition of communism than the parts you're trying to pretend are.

By that logic, pizza is just milk taken to the extreme, because there's dairy in the cheese. Never mind all the other things that go into a pizza, never mind that the definition of one concerns those extra things but never milk, never mind all that. Pizza is just extreme milk, because it shares slight similarities with it.

See, this is why nobody takes you fucking seriously.
