The works of Marx and Engels promotes atheism, yes.
That does not mean that all atheists are communists.
All dogs are mammals, not all mammals are dogs.
Dear GuitarRipper,
Communism

Psh, go look in the dictionary.
Fundie = Cretin.
EDIT: Automatically assumed Fundie. Sloppy thinking on my part, sorry.
Doctor Whom wrote: "By the way, Ayn Rand was an atheist, too."
*GACK* Stop making the fundies arguments for them!
Being lumped in with Hitler and Stalin, I could put up with. But Ayn Rand?!
1) commmunism is not the worlds greatest evil; it's not going to hurt you.
2) atheism isn't either. this doesn't make them the same
3) you obviously haven't checked the dictionary. not that I'm surprised, it would have been too much to ask for you to have your facts straight before you go off making moronic assertions
Wrong, bud.
Communist governments tend to try to enforce atheism, but not all people who are communist are atheist, and few atheists (in my experience) are communists.
I have had a positive personal experience regarding communism in microcosms, but that's better suited for the forums.
Shouldn't christians, by following their own teachings, naturally be communistic? What with the whole giving to the poor, not being rich, and all that? They'd even be led by their priests!
Dude, I totally checked it. I couldn't find what you were talking about, but then again, this dictionary doesn't have the word "gullible" in it, either.
Take a look for yourself. No, really.
I looked in the dictionary, and here is what it said.
Co/mmu/nist- 1. A fucking atheist. 2. Fucking faggot atheist.
atheist
Main Entry: athe·ist
Pronunciation: \'a-the-ist\
Function: noun
: one who believes that there is no deity
I suggest you look in d dictionary.
Why this need to lump together stuff that you don't like? I don't like telephones, having a whole chicken carcass on my dinner plate, and female genital mutilation. But I don't go around believing those things have anything in common, just because I don't like them. I'm just not that important, an overwhelming majority of the 4,5 billion people on Earth don't know, and never will know, that I exist.
"Psh, go look in the dictionary.
Communist = Atheist."
Communists:

USSR:

Cult of Personality = Religion.
Atheists != Religious.

Using your logic however:
Hitler = Christian
GuitarRipper = Christian
Ergo, GuitarRipper = Nazi. QED

"I'm not normally interested by your anime screenies, but holy fuck what anime is she from?"
She's from the anime series "My-HiME":
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My-HiME
The specific character being Natsuki Kuga:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natsuki_Kuga
Lethal with guns, and more so with her 'Child' Duran, a mecha-wolf with huge flank cannons.
I can't recommend this series enough (and the sequels; like "Gundam", it's becoming a whole new franchise for Sunrise), with it's warrior maidens whose powers are nanotech-based, and they can only keep them as long as they stay virgins.
This & the spinoff "Mai Otome" have made the mere 'Mahou Shoujo' ("Sailor Moon" etc) genre evolve far beyond sparkly 'transformation sequences' battling the 'monster of the week'. As has the "Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha" series. Kickass females with ultra-powerful weapons.
From http://dictionary.reference.com/ :
Communism:
1. a theory or system of social organization based on the holding of all property in common, actual ownership being ascribed to the community as a whole or to the state.
2. ( often initial capital letter ) a system of social organization in which all economic and social activity is controlled by a totalitarian state dominated by a single and self-perpetuating political party.
3. ( initial capital letter ) the principles and practices of the Communist party.
4. communalism.
Atheism:
1. the doctrine or belief that there is no God.
2. disbelief in the existence of a supreme being or beings.
Yeah.
Again, the only reason Russian Socialism (Communism) contained Atheism was to defang the Russian Orthodox totalitarian church. It didn't ban, eliminate or forbid Christianity, it took their control away.
This should be obvious to you idiots now as Putin has joined the Russian Orthodox church in its gay hating agenda.
"Waitaminite Batman,,, wasn't that holy church wiped out by that Atheist regime?"
"No Robin, that's an American, and somewhat western world delusion propagated by Christian groups to sell more Bibles. Despite me telling them to educated themselves they just won't make the effort"
"Holy Con-Job Batman"
"Indeed Boy Wonder, Holy Con-Job indeed"
Christians not in charge IS NOT an Atheist society, Communism was also aiming for a secular society, so it missed, so have many others. The rich aren't supposed to control wars or the financial system either, but in the western world the corruption of wealth is always present. The churchs have always represented much of that wealth and corruption.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
