Why Religion Accelerates Immorality [ You cannot abolish the religious instincts of humanity by state decree ]

Religion is not " accelerating immorality " . " The Ten Commandments " came into existence just in the early centuries of pre-civilization when EVIL generating PRIVATE PROPERTY rights were undermining the human COMMUNAL society. You cannot abolish the religious instincts of humanity by state decree. That was the biggest mistake of the Old STALINIST Soviet Union : making itself " officially atheist ". That was no small factor - not the IDEA of" socialism " - in making it a repulsive dreary tyranny. If you could abolish religion by decree , what ideology remains that will counter capitalist greed and exploitation ? That will find serious MORAL flaws in capitalism , American imperialism , and Israeli Zionism ? For all the supposed failure of organized religion where and when has influential ATHEISM ever promoted moral sanity ? Under Stalin ?

Russia reacts to U.S. military operation in Venezuela after Trump slams ...[ Will stale Wilsonian blather that was false more than a century ago once again arouse war fever in " OUR democracy " ? ]

[ " It’s hilarious that Russia and China think that they have any moral standing in the world." ] [ It is even more hilarious that the FASCIST -ZIONIST New Regime of Donald Trump and Stephen Miller in " OUR democracy " think that they have the support of WORLD Christianity . Most CHRISTIAN Americans are not CHRISTIAN Zionists foaming at the mouth for APOCALYPSE NOW and nuclear World War III . And the much maligned Roman Catholic Church is a VOICE FOR PEACE ON EARTH not one blessing Israeli genocide in Gaza Palestine . Trump's only true allies : the world proclaimed ZIONIST Jew war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu in APARTHEID Israel and the warmonger , embezzler V. Zelensky in " " Greater Israel " Ukraine . Will stale Wilsonian blather that was false more than a century ago once again arouse war fever in " OUR democracy " ?

Russia reacts to U.S. military operation in Venezuela after Trump slams ...

As a longtime independent democratic socialist I like what I read on the World Socialist Website this morning : [ " US imperialism rings in the New Year with a new war Oppose Trump’s criminal invasion of Venezuela! Release Maduro! The World Socialist Web Site, the Socialist Equality Party in the US and the International Committee of the Fourth International unequivocally denounce the invasion of Venezuela and the criminal abduction of President Nicolás Maduro. " ] Wisdom from the " Tumultuous Sixties " : " What if THEY start a war and nobody shows up ? "
