LOL! Feel free to draw the connection between Stalinism and Communism and humanism!

What does humanism have to do with the Communist Ideology?!

en.wikipedia.org

"...Secular humanism is a secular ideology which espouses reason, ethics, and justice..."

HELLO!! :-)

Stalin on Darwin's influence:

"I began to speak of God. Joseph heard me out, and after a moment's silence, said:

"'You know, they are fooling us, there is no God. '"

"I was astonished at these words. I had never heard anything like it before.

"'How can you say such things, Soso?' I exclaimed.

"'I'll lend you a book to read; it will show you that the world and all living things are quite different from what you imagine, and all this talk about God is sheer nonsense,' Joseph said.

"'What book is that?' I enquired.

"'Darwin. You must read it,' Joseph impressed on me." says G. Glurdjidze.
