? Some people leave their worldly possessions to the church who's done more harm over the last 2 millenia than the commies ever did...
A book written by some lefty academics, including a prof from Paris X (and published by Harvard University Press) puts the number of victims of communism at 94 million, over a span of some 70 odd years (1917 -- 1990, I guess). These are well-documented crimes, done by state autorithies, as a direct consequence of Communist ideology. The tu quoque defense of communism simply doesn't wash.
Really? The "church" was able to incite sufficient evangelical belief, commingled with a truly admirable sang-froid, to slaughter over 130 million souls in one century?
If they had, perhaps you would have the same admiration for the clerics as you do for the communards.
