Man's inhumanity to man is staggering......

Mere words cannot convey the evil and brutality of which humans are capable.

I'm not a believer in the Rapture or the "end times" but sometimes I find myself thinking that Jesus can't get here soon enough to establish that 1000 year reign of peace on earth.....KWIM?

Sadly the same could be said about Christianity. It isn't that the ideas are bad, but that some people are simply unaware of what they do and the implications. Place a bad person in charge and bad things can happen. doesn't matter the political system.... or do we want to forget the million dead in Iraq?

Why did Communism fail to take hold in US? While many other countries were falling under the spell of creating a "worker's paradise", the US was trying to weed out suspected communists with the McCarthy hearings.

Perhaps, it is because Communism goes against everything that America stood for, since 1776!
Instead of trying to coexist and do business with all these Commies who HATE US......we should be doing our part to completely ELIMINATE every last one of 'em!
They need to be removed from this Earth, for they are parasitic and cancerous with thier ultimate goals for America and the entire planet!

Sadly, it will probably take WW3 for just such a cleansing.

This is what happens when those in control of government think they know what is best for the good of the people, over the objections of what the people think is best for themselves.

Yes, we all know that McCarthyism was a fantastic idea that saved the nation for the "Red Scare".

Yep.
They want everyone to do as they are told and be good, little slaves for them.

So.......you may need to get "re-educated" to learn and accept it, or they may help you....."disappear."

It is.

It's about the religion of man in which man is his own god.

Communists are, by definition, Atheists.
