So you are really under the illusion the Communism is somehow more evil than other man-made government systems?!?! WOW
-- Of course Communism is more evil.
A man-made system of government that allows a man to worship as he sees fit, guarantees him privacy, freedom to choose the occupation he wants, live where he wants, study what he sees fit, leave if he sees fit, guarantees him a fair trial when he is accused of something, and lets him choose who he wants to represent him via a fair and private ballot beats Communism
hands down.
But if you want to use the standard of what Communism is supposed to be instead of what it has been when people have actually try to put it into practice, using the same fairy tale standard, Democracy still wins.
Sure Russian, North Korean, and Chinese communism is controlled by the Communist Party, but that is not real communism - it is despotism. Real communism can be seen inside monasteries and in the Early Church. As far as theocratic monarchism is concerned; are you suggesting that we turn the clock back to the Middle Ages?
All human made government systems are less than good, I am sure that God will employ His own system, rather than adopting a human system.
-- Communism in Russia indeed began in it's purest form (or at least with promises of its purest form.)
The problem is that Communism in its purest form simply cannot be sustained. Period. It requires every person always give their very best, hold nothing back, and be expected to be totally selfless, regardless of what sacrifices are expected. In order to keep even a system based on Communism alive, the efforts ALWAYS end up with a despot in charge. The very imperfection of man GUARANTEES failure.
As far as "inside monasteries and in the early church," early church members did share their resources out of necessity, born out of oppression of the existing government(s) and it was much, much more "communal" than "Communism."
As far as monasteries go, Communism there was closer to Soviet Communism than pure Communism. Yes, men shared all responsibilities (cooking, clearning, farming, harvesting, etc.) all working to the greater good of their monastery life, but that is where it ended. The leadership of the monastery, for all intents and purposes was Dictatorial. His word alone was law. There were serious corporal punishments for those that the head of the monastary found violating their rules or not pulling their weight. This included physical abuse and the denial of food. His word was law. No votes. No appeals to a higher power (except to God through prayer). No way to change your position except to leave.
Definitely not an example to emulate.
