Secondly, communism clearly do not advocate the spread of religions, be it atheist or not. Karl Marx himself stated that religions is the “opium” of the people. Communist states often see religions as a relic from the old regime and feudalism, and thus oppose to the growth of any religions. Some communist country even prosecute religious leaders. Religions declined by more the most in Soviet Russia because Lenin and other leaders are oppose to it.

Thirdly, Hitler himself doesn’t seem to have faith in any religions. To be more specific, he is atheist AND irreligious.

I think we should make a clear distinction here between atheist and irreligious people. Irreligious is a subset of atheism but some religions are also atheist as well.

Thus I think you should withdraw your claim on deaths caused by communist country and the German third Reich. Those leaders were atheist without a religions, thus their crime should not be associated with any religions whatsoever. Thus I think your claims are quite invalid.

And I’m not tryin to be offensive here, but I think Christianity get its bad name from the way the power consuming pope is suppressing the growth of science in the middle ages and the way US government gets all religious when it comes to simple logic such as the evolution and stuff. Religions like Buddhism encourage people to learn and test and see the result themselves; a certain christian president from a certain new world country seems to be tryin real hard to keep it’s followers dumb. Maybe they are easier to control that way.

Accordingly, the number through the centuries of death caused at the hands of the church is actually around 6 million people. Given, this is still 6 million too many, but 6 million none the less.

I would like to see the links to where you received your facts and information from because I think they are gravely mistaken.

Also, let me state, you cannot take one person, who states they are a Catholic or a Christian, and place the deaths they cause under the hand of the Church. That is disingenuous as well. The only deaths that can be attributed to the church are the deaths that the leaders of the church actually have caused.

Deaths Caused By the Church
1562-1598 – French Wars of Religion – France – 4 million
1095-1291 – Crusades to the Holy Land – Middle East, Spain, Africa – 1.5 million (This does include all sides of the conflict)
1184-c. 1860 – Various Christian Inquisitions – Europe – 17,500
Plus all those burned at the stake for “Witchcraft” - 300,000

Rounding it up, that comes to 6 million.

In contrast, we should look at the deaths caused by non Christians though history.

184-205 – Yellow Scarves Rebellion (Taoists) – China – 7 million
1300s-1521 – Human Sacrifices (Aztecs) – Mexico – 1 million
1855-1877 – Panthay Rebellion (Muslims) – China – 12 million
1932-1933 – Holodomor (communist atheists) – Ukraine – 10 million
1941-1945 – Nazi Genocides (statist atheists) – Germany – 11 million
1959-1962 – Great Leap Forward famine (communist atheists) – China – 43 million
1971 – Bangladesh Atrocities (Islamists) – East Pakistan – 3 million
1975-1979 – Khmer Rouge Repression (communist atheists) – Cambodia – 3 million
September 11, 2007 – Terrorist attacks (Muslim Jihadists) – USA – 5,000

The deaths caused by non-Christians – approximately 90 MILLION! And this is actually a conservative number, but far more than 6 million.

Just my thoughts, but it would do you well to re-edit your post, and add the links to your sources.

Question the general assumption that people suffering from development disorder are inherently
deficient when it comes to social interaction.

Chance seems very simple-minded and has lived in the house his whole life, tending the garden, with virtually no contact with the outside world.

Having no experience with anything else then his precious garden Chance answers difficult questions by referring to his Garden, brining up examples of different agriculture mechanics.

Although Chance is really describing being kicked out of the home where he tended to the garden, Ben Rand perceives it as attorneys shutting down Chance’s business because of financial problems

Yet he manages to impress many highly educated business men who wrongly interprets his descriptions as deep metaphors.

Through a series of random events Chance becomes a media personality with a very successful political career.

MESSAGE:

Question the general assumption that people suffering from development disorder are inherently
deficient when it comes to social interaction.

- Its a underlaying allegory about the humans tendency to find deeper meanings in ultimately very simple things.

Gardener similes

He becomes very popular among capitalists and aristocrats

They even assume that he shares their political believes. Even though he has no political believes at all.

Also how shallow these peoples perspective is.

Judging by his appearance and overall demeanor, Ben Rand automatically assumes that Chauncey is an upper class, well-to-do, highly educated business man.

They assume he is one of them

As examples of excesses by all communities, I quote the following:
1. Christian history in Europe and the colonies after the time of Constantine I, till the 1800s.
2. Judaism during the Kitos revolt, the sack of Jerusalem by the Persians and the Hebrew kingdom in current day Yemen.
3. Jihad in Islam, and treatment of the “kafirs” from 600 Ad till now.
4. Even though Hinduism is more tolerant (Jewish communitites from around 500 BC, Christian communites from 52 AD and Parsee communities from 700 AD have existed in Hindu lands), atrocities have been commited during the Sangha dynasty (when Buddhists were killed en masse), Pandyan Dynasty in the II Sangham age (when Jainists were killed), 1857 rebellion, and the Partition of India, with incidents (Gujrat, Orrisa) happening even in this day and age.
5. Buddhists in Thailand and Sri Lanka, with the killings even up till 2009. Can one also classify the Japanese as Buddhists? Tibet itself had seen interesting incidents when she was independent.
6. Zorastrian persecution of the Christians till the destruction of the Sassanid empire.
7. Aethists, during the French revolution and the reign of terror.
8. Communists in the Soviet lands, China, Vietnam, Combodia, Ethiopia, Cuba, and the Spanish Civil War.
9. “Pagans” during the Roman empire, the Wendish rebellion etc.

Follow Dharmic religion, Buddists and Jains and most of the Hindus. Very peaceful people.
