It kind of is. They just believe in a worldly paradise.
>>822046Exactly. The fact that it is atheistic doesn't mean it's not religion. See Buddhism for example.
Even Christianity's monotheism is different from Islam's monotheism.
>>822050>Exactly. The fact that it is atheistic doesn't mean it's not religion. See Buddhism for example.>Even Christianity's monotheism is different from Islam's monotheism.It depends on the definition of "religion". For me it's the idea of sacredness.
>>822050buddhism is not atheistic

- Communism represents the "end of history," just as Paradise does in Christianity.
- Marxism has its own version of "original sin": you might be a good person, but if you are a capitalist, you are sinful nonetheless. (Furthermore, anything that contradicts the communist mainstream is also considered a sin.)
- Marxism has its own "chosen people" – the proletariat.
- Marxism has its own sacred text (the complete works of Marx).
- Marxism has its own prophets and martyrs (Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Che, and others, depending on your specific denomination).
- Marxism has its heresies (such as Trotskyism; for Trotskyists, conversely, the Stalinists are the heretics).
- Marxists claim to be scientific yet fail to follow the scientific method. They are essentially identical to a religion – specifically, an Abrahamic one.
>>823190> Communism represents the "end of history," just as Paradise does in Christianity.They need a couple of new prophets to update their theory but that's just going to split it into multiple religions fighting over the same bit of land. Marxism is a fail as a system.
He does make some cool points though.
>>823190not a single one of these points is true. maybe that could apply to dogmatic twitter leftists but please read actual marxists
>>823223>See? It was easy.Every religion is a 'not a religion but a way of life', just go see for yourself
>>823223>it is not based on faithIt WiLl WoRk ThIs TiMe!
>and it's perfectly compatibile with materialist mechanicist atheismMarxists do not follow the scientific method if it contradicts their religion and somehow portrays their sacred writings as incorrect.
>>823230there are no sacred writings. agreeing on a specific framework or worldview that an author wrote about ≠ religion.
people still read robespierre, macchiavelli, adam smith. are these sacred scriptures too?
>>823235>are these sacred scriptures too?I haven't seen anyone fanatically adhere to everything all those people wrote.
