Maybe you should ask yourself how come, that religion was seriously suppressed in the communist block? Communists are quite good conservatives. Did you know that they where anti-Darwinists as well? Like many religious conservatives in the good old USA!

IMO, liberal & science go together. Conservative & religious go together. So I would expect liberals to admit mistakes and change course, but not conservatives. Maybe you should ask yourself how come, that religion was seriously suppressed in the communist block? I will help you out a little: It was because they only had space for one "religion", Communism! With Marx and Lenin being The God. or Mao in PRC. Or..., here we go! You of all people should know that what was practiced in Russia was not Karl Marx's communism no matter how much you mix the names of Lenin and Marx together. What was practiced in Russia was closer to fascism than it was to communism. More closely, it was a form of oligarchic totalitarianism. Russians seem to have a fondness for oligarchies. That's make your point from above sound a little bit hysterical. ;~) ted
