Interesting. Religion does seem to enjoy special dispensation and frankly gets away with a lot. I respect someones right to follow Islam or Buddhism or Christianity as equally as I respect someone's right to drive a pink car or watch Steven Seagal movies. I think they're all equally repulsive...

Nope, just respect it. P.S: What culture has communism as a religion? A very confused post.

We certainly did fight for EVERYONE'S freedom, with a little help from guess who....... https://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/aug/02/muslim-soldiers-first-world-war
