Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I know there’s a lot of atheist users on this site, some are also very critical of religious stuff so I’m just asking so nobody gets offended.

To rephrase Stalin, there is the dogmatic way to do Marxism, and there is the pragmatic way. We follow the pragmatic way. I think we ought to entertain a network where everyone is welcome as long as they are friendly to the Marxist-Leninist cause and do not seek any trouble.

That being said, religion is often manipulated and corrupted when intermingling with political economy by organising itself into churches, sects, cults, and affiliated marketing schemes. Depending on their historic tendency to exert pressure against the economic welfare of the proletariat, to intrude upon the orderly proceeding of science and statecraft, to involve themselves in offences against the common good and the dealings of the criminal underworld, and to peddle anti-communist hysteria, the role of predatory religious organisations is to be shunned, and in particular clearly distanced from the genuinely progressive, proletarian aspect of the faith.

as a Muslim I often feel very alienated by militant atheists in Socialist circles it's so strange
