http://www.infidels.org "Metaphysical Naturalism"

The Communist Party is atheist. It "believes" that "It" and only "It" is
supreme. The Communist Party "believes" "It" and only "It" has the
authority to control and manipulate the Universe, I.E. "Metaphysical
Naturalism"

The human "belief" that there is no greater "Being" than himself is an
affirmation of the "belief" that humans are "The" supreme Universal being.
This "belief" in and of itself is a pseudo-religion without supreme
guidance. Without belief in a superior being it constructs and manipulates
socially acceptable human behavior which ultimately decends into dictatorial
rule without moral and ethical guidance and without threat or fear.

This Metaphysical Naturalism belief is incorporated within Communist
Party doctrine.

Woman Raped on Street While People Pass By

About 10 p.m. on April 27, a young woman was raped on the street near a
construction company in the south of Baofeng, Henan province. The woman
continued to fight with the rapist and shouted for help but nobody offered.

On June 20 China's Legal TV Broadcast reported a "young woman raped on the
street while pedestrians stand by with folded arms." They described the rape
case in detail.

At 10:15 p.m. on April 27, police on duty at Chengguan police station,
Baofeng county of Henan province, received a call reporting a rape case and
then they rushed to the scene. They found a man raping a naked young woman.

According to the police, the woman never stopped struggling and calling for
help, and several pedestrians passed by but nobody tried to stop the
criminal. But when the police captured the crime suspect, a large crowd
gathered around to watch.

The female victim claimed that the rapist pulled her to the ground with a
knife at her throat and forcefully took off her clothes. The rapist
assaulted and abused his victim for about half an hour that evening. He cut
the young lady with his knife at some point in the struggle; bloodstains
were visible at the site the next day.

In the interrogation, the crime suspect confessed and told the police that
some pedestrians were passing by but nobody stopped him during his half-hour
of criminal activity. A tragedy could have been avoided, but was allowed to
go on because people are indifferent and numb to public acts of violence.

Not quite. Marx believed that religion artificially kept people from
rebelling against capitalism by promising them paradise in the life to
come. In Marx's view, people were promised a beautiful eternity in
exchange for enduring wretchedness in their physical existences. Thus
the famous statement that "religion is the opiate of the people".
Certainly, in the real world application of Marxism (something Marx
always had a shaky grasp of) the Party set itself up as God's
replacement. But I don't think that was Marx's original intention.

Huh? Do you know how many times the Bible has been altered? How many
times the Levitical Laws were changed? Have you ever heard of the divine
right of kings, where the king claimed that he was responsible only to
God, thus giving him free rein to do as he liked, since God was
conveniently absent? Do you know that for a thousand years Christians
were prohibited from reading the Bible, thus keeping them ignorant about
what it really said, allowing the Church to claim anything it wanted
about what was in there? Absolute moral law is whatever the leaders say
it is, except in Communism the absolute authority is Marx or Lenin or
Mao instead of God. Li, you're still the starry eyed idealist that you
were as a youth, only now the object of your idealism is religion and
the US Constitution rather than Marx. Wake up and live in the real world
for once in your life.

If you had been born in China you would understand that the Chinese
Communist Party
has long discarded any adherence to Marxist ideology. The CCP writes the
rules
to suit itself and nothing more. Your argument carries no analogy.

You need to fast forward to 2005.
