With all this Islamophobia spreading and calls to abolish it in the "west".

My response is abolish all religion. Its a regressive concept that has no basis in the present

You mean you want to abolish the religion of Marxism? It is the deadliest religion in the history of mankind.

@Guitarman123 Communism is a religion. You pseudo intellectuals just aren't bright enough to understand what religion means and it doesn't mean just a church or mosque or synagogue or temple. It means a faith held firmly. You are unshakeable in your religion and even deny any evidence of its evils.

@hippyjoe1955 down with Christianity especially
hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M
@Guitarman123 Of course the humanist religion wants nothing to do with the Truth. Too Funny. You didn't answer my question though. Why did Russia the birthplace of Marxism reject Marxism and turn to Christianity? One further question. Marxism is a Utopian Religion. One that plans on transforming mankind into perfect socialism. So what gain is it for the individual to become part of the Borg? To just be a drone working your life away and in 70 years when you are no longer of value to be euthanized like a tired old horse? What allure does that hold for you?

@hippyjoe1955 nothing humanist about Christianity. Just spouts nationalism and bigotry
hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M
@Guitarman123 Christianity does not support nationalism. Never has. So what part of there is no longer Jew nor Gentile Free nor Slave Male nor Female for all are one in Christ Jesus our Lord is bigoted?
Guitarman123 · 36-40, M
@hippyjoe1955 and supported slavery and oppression.
hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M
@Guitarman123 Marxism is slavery. Only the oblivious are not aware of that. Too Funny. My uncle went behind the Iron Curtain. His most poignant memory was that when they entered East Berlin the smiles all stopped. My neighbour went to Russia while it was still communist and still dependant on Canada's wheat to visit family. He was shocked at how poor the farms were. The workers had no incentive to work hard or bring a better crop. If it was a bumper crop they received no reward. It the crop failed entirely there was no consequence. They put in their 8 hours and went home. My neighbour was a very successful farmer and through hard work he made his family wealthy. Not that he kept it. He sponsored people to come to Canada from war torn areas of the world. He gave generously to all kinds of charities helping the poor and hopeless around the world. His family in Russia did none of those things. They just did their job and went home. So you still haven't answered any of my questions? Because you can't answer them and be honest?

@hippyjoe1955 Marxism isn't a a religion and is against religion. Marx called religion the opium of the people. Socialism is responsible for the 8 hour work day
hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M
@Guitarman123 Yeah its a utopian Religion. Its salvation is extremely thin as you simply get to spend your few years of life as just a part of the Borg. No humanity allowed. No music or poetry. No lofty thoughts not great ideals. No love no loyalty. Just a drone in the Borg. How sad is that and silly you want that for yourself and everyone around you.

@Guitarman123 Speaking of religious phobias I am reminded of the Christophobial displayed by the USSR. I have a very good friend from Russia. He was a medical emissary for the Soviet Union and sent to Africa to convince everyone that communism was the way of humanity. While there he met a fellow who spoke German. My Russian friend also spoke German and they soon struck up a friendship. The other fellow was from Canada and had grown up on a Mennonite farm. He and his wife went Africa as Christian missionaries helping build houses for the natives. After a few months my Russian friend was asked to join a Bible study with the two Mennonites. He agreed. Christianity was banned in the Soviet Union and he had learned all the arguments against it from his classes in school and university. He had seen the great pendulum swinging in the doorway of the cathedral and laughed at how backward Christianity was. However the Mennonites chose not to argue or fight with him. They simply explained the Bible. After about 6 months of Bible study my medical Doctor friend from the USSR became a Christian. He laughs at it now but he said his first thought after becoming a Christian is that he could never go home again. He came to Canada and attends the same church as I do.

@hippyjoe1955 funny that you reference a star trek alien species. That franchise represents a utopian future
Guitarman123 · 36-40, M

@Guitarman123 communism feeds in extremism, anti establishment , disorder, chaos, it will not work. It works like parasites. It doesn’t support creationism. But I don’t like hypercapitalism too where it creates trap for middle class.
Guitarman123 · 36-40, M
@OriginalDumbMan darwin proved creationism has no merit
hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M
@Guitarman123 Which is a religion. It has a Genesis Story. Evolution. It believes that mankind was once in a primitive paradise. It recognises mankind fall and blames capitalism for it. It has its prophets, Engels, Marx and the many who preceded them an those who follow. It has a solution to mankind's fall and it has a future paradise to which it has bent its back to implement. Why do you promote it? Because it is your religion and you are extremely evangelical about your religion. The only problem is no one has ever reached Marxism's paradise but hundreds of millions have been killed trying to do so. Not that the paradise is all that great. You live in a Borg for your seventy years and then you die. Your thoughts your efforts your dreams your ideals all come to naughty as you simply cease to exist.

@hippyjoe1955 just to let you know star trek is a utopian sci fi show that celebritates diversity and science and not religion. Darwin used to be religious till he started his natural studies
hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M
@Guitarman123 And who follows star trek and tries to make everyone carry phasers? No one that I know. Yes Star Trek has a lot of Marxism in it but that is just part of their religion. Marxism is a religion and you are not willing to be honest with yourself. Not that I am at all surprised. Marx was a very devious fellow. So devious his called him "My dear devil". Watch the videos that I gave you and you might begin to realise just how you have been conned into thinking marxism is a good thing. It is purely satanic.
Guitarman123 · 36-40, M
@hippyjoe1955 religion believes in the supernatural. Darwin believed in natural evolution. Marx believed in materialism and dialectical thinking
hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M
@Guitarman123 Religion is simply a belief system held with ardour and tenacity. It has nothing to do with the supernatural although it might. Merriam Webster 3rd definition of religion is, "an interest, cause, belief, or activity that is intensely or passionately held to". Marxism is a religion. Again your mental capacity is severely lacking on such things.
