Reply #439: Or, It Could Have Been The Cause Of Those Regimes

[SPKrazy]

like many seem to believe

I don't particularly think that to be the case, I think like you do about people like Stalin and Mao, they wanted to eliminate any competition, or divided loyalty.

But some believe that atheism is inherently evil (like Raygun I guess)

I've never given it much thought

I have read of the horrible treatment, torture, and murder that religious people suffered under Mao and Stalin though. It is enough to make one think that evil existed there as it did when Hitler perverted Christianity to his own devices and killed and tortured millions.
