Crap, we are living in a communist nation if a judge can just terminate
(theoretically) God given parental rights. There is not way on earth that such a law is moral. Parents are the first and primary caregivers of their children and no law can change that. Granted there are some cases when the community must intervene to save the life of a child ; however, this doesn't relieve the parents of there duties.
(If you care to respond, I'd rather take this tangent topic to PM, but you are free to do as you like)
Some thoughts:
1. Learn the difference between morals, a legal system, and ethics; it will help with argumentation in general. You won't look ignorant by arguing one for the other.
2. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE learn how to NOT crux all of you arguments on fear of Communism; it cheapens your point if you only know of one kind of "evil" that you are forced to compare everything to. And yes, the Axis powers, while quite evil, are the most over-used, and dishonestly used examples.
3. A Communist state has NEVER existed in the history of man kind. There may have been some Communist
ic societies, but they were not what one would call states. Most of them were wiped out small pox and the 7th Cav between the 1600s and late 1800s. They functioned OK in their own isolated context, but once capitalism showed on our Eastern Seaboard, they became defunct and were quickly (and literally?) rail-roaded out of existance. That's what usually happens when economic models compete; lots of people die, or are enslaved.
Socialist states HAVE existed, many of which were designed to transition to Communism. Lenin was probably genuine in his Communism. China pre-Great Leap Forward was pretty genuine in it's Communism. Even the Sandanistas were genuine in their desire to "do good" (even if they were totally incompetent). Well-meant greater good and all that crap. These experiments turned into messes, were co-opted by thugs, and quickly became Authortarian regimes. Socialist regimes have often gone Authortarian (the real evil we need to focus on, in ALL of its forms), THIS is true, but that does not EQUATE them.
The way you seem to present things, Catholocism must be as "evil" as Communism/Socialism, if body counts, corruption, a singular set of rules to live by, and mis-appropriated idealism are indicators. But really, that's not an intelligent argument to make.
Catholocism is NOT evil even if it has been used to justify many heinous things. Communism is not evil (even if it is lame and stupid) simply because it often becomes Authortarian. I don't like to see EITHER thing forced on people, but if someone WANTS to live in a commune with a bunch of smelly hippies, or say the Rosary for the rest of time, more power to them.
Personally, I'm not a fan of Socialism; you know what it is at it's worst. At it's best, nobody really gets left behind,but everyone ends up living an OK-to-mediocre life of little-to-no consequence in Scandanavia.
But there are bigger things to worry about than "Communism..."
