Uh, I think Communists studied Marx and Engels, etc. not Maimonides or any religious texts. If you can demonstrate any Communists drawing any influences from the religious texts you cite or any others, do so.

Maimonides was well integrated into a Muslim culture which was actively enslaving blacks and was under attack from Mongols. So it isn't surprising to hear he shared his societies biases.

I recall that Stalin once studied to be a priest. Using your brand of logic, you could claim Stalin's crimes derived from his Christian training. That would be a wrong conclusion but consistent with your reasoning process.

Get real Vidrine...Since you love to bring up Jews and Communism, here's the lowdown on Stalin...he graduated from the Gori Church School in 1894 with honors. Stalin continued on to study at the Tiflis Theological Seminary, which shows his religious upbringing...which does not happen to be Jewish.

Facts show how ludicrous you are to blame a religion for Communism. Lets see now, is a Church School and a Theological Seminary a Jewish conspiracy...you ARE a bigoted idiot.
