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 .

Chinese Christians arrested in MAJOR crackdown: ‘Serious escalation’ [ " Communist ( ? ) China unwise to persecute religion ]
An " officially atheist " China turns off the " workers of the world " as much as did the " official atheism " of Stalin's Russia in the 1930s after " The Revolution Betrayed ". Indeed, the biggest mistake of the old Soviet Union was not the tragically failed " socialism " . It was making itself " officially atheist ". The human soul , I suspect , must be very God thirsty in not so " communist " communist China. Ordinary working class people will never flock to lectures glorifying " matter in motion " . Marx got capitalism right but " dialectical materialism " will never compete with the religious instincts of the masses , with the religion of the heart.
In the USA today the New Atheist Cult cranks imagine that they can become a mass movement . In truth, they have only evolved into a petty bourgeois New Hate Group with a right wing political agenda that threatens these American plutocracy , hypocritically designated " Axis of Evil " countries beginning with " communist ( ? ) China.
Last time I checked no organized religion was planning World War III .
NOTE : I wonder if ordinary Chinese people might appreciate a book, once popular in the United States, written by American Chinese author Lin Yutang titled : " The Importance of Living " . Lin later converted to Christianity .
And oddly enough, the spirit of Mao and his legendary " Little Red Book " is missing from present day " communist " China. Nothing evangelical about Chinese nationalism ! Not much " workers of the world unite " old spirit of the early 20th century socialist movements there ! That spirt was very much alive early in the 20th century USA . Even within CHRISTIAN churches !
