Inspired from youth by Albert Camus' sense of the Absurd, I try to be a voice for REASON in the growing darkness and moral insanity of global capitalism .

Will Religion Ever Die Out?
What are the psychological roots of the more unsophisticated religious beliefs ( bordering on genuine superstition ) ? As a long time independent democratic socialist I am certain the New Atheist Cult road show will never reach the masses of ordinary working class people who, horribly oppressed by the capitalist way of life, will never abandon their consoling faith.
Whatever evil organized religion is responsible for , it does not compare to the evil of capitalism, American imperialism, and Israeli Zionism. The New Atheists say " forget God " but accept capitalist exploitation and oppression ?
When SCIENCE become arrogant enough do indulge in obnoxious God hating , to think it can itself arrive at ABSOLUTE TRUTH, at a " Theory of Everything " this is a sign not of the end of FAITH but of " The End of Science ".
The biggest mistake of the old Soviet Union was not SOCIALISM . It was making itself an " officially atheist " hellish tyranny.
The New Atheists would ban religion from " OUR democracy " . They are all budding Stalinists ( equal to most WOKE WARRIOR Democrats ) without the pretense of " communism " .
