Bibles in Hotel Rooms

[Gilligan]

So the YouTube videos in post #41 were strictly for political reasons ?

Wow. Gilligan, you seem to have actually stumbled upon an argument that's actually slightly cogent, as opposed to just face-palmingly stupid.
Let me clear it up for you: Of course, all the brutal leaders of the Communist movements were atheists (like Stalin or Chairman Mao), but It would be an oversimplification to claim that their brutality is due to atheism. In essence, when there were persecutions, almost never were they solely against those who follow religion, but religious followers are usually seen as one of a long list of "enemies of the state." Simply put, the communist regime of Rumania did not torture the priest just because they were atheists; they persecuted them because they were a threat to their total control over the people.

So even an atheist could be in danger in that regime?
