    You’re a hypocrite.

    There are no inconsistencies in the communist manifesto as far as I’m aware. It certainly doesn’t endorse totalitarian dictatorships or genocide (though the bible does, multiple times).

    Yet, your bible details rules for slaves and never corrects itself. The bible endorses and encourages slavery. You just choose to ignore it.

    I’m not a hypocrite.

      The Bible is a particular selection of disparate writings collected over centuries and codified millennia after the events described.

      By like comparison, Communism as a corpus is composed of the exploits of Hitler, Stalin, and Mao.

      The gospels of Christianity are more similar to the Manifesto itself, and contain none of the dictatorships or genocides to which you allude. The gospels do not encourage slavery. If you judge the Bible based on the commentaries and political corruptions, then so judge Communism by gulags and genocides. If one is corruption, then both are. If one is canon, then both are. If you judge Christianity by Paul, judge Communism by Mao. Mao published. Paul published. If it’s unfair to judge Communism by Mao, it’s unfair to judge Christianity by Paul.

      Make up your mind.
