China intends and is currently going full commy on the bible and on Christians, and will rewrite the bible to conform to communism, which is essentially just another slave bible, for that is all that communism offers, and having recently read the Gulag Archipelago this issue is settled in my mind completely.
This issue exposes a few Atheist complaints for the farce that they are, that is to say that...
1. If the bible actually taught slavery and expounded oppression, then totalitarian and slave keeping regimes through all history would never have found it necessary to either abolish or heavily edit the scriptures, but could simply use it as is instead, and this myopic and frankly idiotic assertion comes in the face of the fact that the most free societies to ever be created have always been Christian ones, which originated every good thing that atheists value, though they perform regular songs and dances to try minimise this fact.
2. Demonstrates that in the protest against Christian accusations of atheism being responsible for the hell that was the 20th century, they insist that Stalin and so on were actually some how instantiating some kind of religious order rather than a pure humanistic and atheist one that necessarily derived from those views, and that is how they did so much damage by some religious perversion of humanism, is an utter nonsense.
The ideology that gives impetus to these regimes is a totally human centred and godless one, and just because western intellectuals prefer their definition of humanism, does not mean that literally every communist and socialist state did not define humanism in a very different manner, and in any case, I will show in this video how the libertarian humanistic ideology is basically working itself out to the exact same ends as communism does, so that it is only different in method and rhetoric, not results.
In China, they’re closing churches, jailing pastors – and even rewriting scripture.
