[quote=So Boerd] Lol, History? Add all the crusades up, multiply the body count by 9. That is the body count of ONE communist leader. Namely, Mao. Communism is just as fanciful as any religion. Replace God with Proletariat, Heretics and Heathens with Counter-Revolutionaries. [/quote] How about the Taiping rebellion? :lol Twenty million deaths. My point isn't to defend the communist manifesto, it's to tell you why religion and government don't mix. The middle east is a perfect example of that right now. Sharia law is a perfect example of it. So on and so forth. There is an inexhaustible amount of evidence showing why mixing the two is just a bad idea flat out. Besides, in American schools, I don't think teachers could hand out Communist Manifestos and not get chewed up for it. Not even if they did it to teach what's wrong with the theory and how it doesn't account for human nature.
