  • For religious people, how do you reconcile your faith with communism?

  • Hello, no not at all. In fact, being a sunni, I'm very proud of the revolutionary fighting that Iran (that is predominately Shia) is doing compared to sunnis in other Middle East countries that choose to side with imperialists. I've actually been working on getting rid of the prejudice that my mother has towards Shias by showing her the work they've done and explaining their differences which aren't a betrayal of Islam.

  • Thank you, you give me some hope and relief. I once though brought up your point about scientists and other professionals still believing in religion to an atheist and they responded with "There is a cognitive dissonance. Relativity of simultaneity automatically rules out most religious metaphysical interpretations."

  • I hope to not only see this realized more but I hope more leftists also realize even if material condition were met, people will still seek out spirituality. Like humans are complex and multifaceted creatures, its reductive to think that mankind are only just material objects who reason along material lines. If the "strategy" is to simply attack a means in which people produce social cohesion then the movement is bound for failure. Movements die when they lose contact with the masses.

    Look at modern political outlooks, it is predominately despair over meaning and purpose, you can tie economics into it, but it fails when it is seen as "economics can give you the purpose you desire" because it doesnt. We have social systems that exist outside markets (still tied to and influence it and are influenced by it) that do the heavy lifting of applying parameters to how we collectively act and understand things.
