Im not very well educated in Christianity, but as far as i know Jesus was aligned with communist ideals, he was extremely egalitarian.

Do you think we should think of the catholic church as a possible ally or would that be counterproductive?

Do you think anti-religion is fundamental to Marxism?

Do you think the anti-religious stance of the Soviets was a mistake?

I personally think trying to work with them instead of against them in places were they are deeply integrated with the population would be the obvious choice.

I am ofcourse talking exclusively about the Catholics only and not the Orthodox or Evangelist.

PD, im not religious. Im a Budhhist, but i dont think of it as a religion.

Fuck no. One deals with things that are real, the other deals with fantasies concocted by ignorant people well over 2000 years ago.

Even if you want to cherry pick all the good things (which isn't even inherent or unique to Christianity) and conveniently ignore everything else, it still has no basis for any of its claims whatsoever. How do you square that with material reality? If there's no original sin there's no need for a messiah.

Lmao they down voted cause they had no response. I love it here
