Tell me if you think the following is religious: "*The doctrine of Marx is
omnipotent because it is true*". It sure sound religious to me and the holy
man who said it was Vladimir Lenin. I agree that Stalin and Hitler were the
two greatest monsters of the 20th century but  Stalin persecuted religion
for exactly the same reason Catholics persecuted Protestants and
Protestants persecuted Catholics, they didn't want the competition from
rival religious franchises. Stalin's core commandment was "I am the lord
thy God and thou shalt have no other gods before me"

Like other religions Stalin worship insisted it had a monopoly on the
truth, He said Mendelian genetics and Darwinian Evolution violated the
scripture of Dialectic Materialism so he murdered biologists, and He said
Quantum Mechanics also violated Dialectic Materialism so he murdered Matvei
Bronstein, the pioneer of quantum gravity, and continued to persecute
physicists until he realized they could be useful and give Him a nuclear
bomb.
