stalin was a greek orthodox priest student ..
the orthodox church fared well under his regime..there where just 2500 of them when stalin came into power..more as 25,000 when he died..
mao, a taoist , never washed becouse of buddist symbolism ...washing is what u do in buddism to wash off all ur mistakes and sins ..
mao of course was faultless........so never washed !!
pol pot (Saloth Sar).... was raised a Buddhist and Catholic.
Dr. Ian Harris, a Reader in Religious Studies at the University College of St. Martin, relates: "In one of his early writings Pol Pot wrote approvingly that the 'democratic regime will bring back the Buddhist moralism because our great leader Buddha was the first to have taught [democracy].'"
