Anybody missing from this analysis?

As usual, the secular regimes of the communist nations are pretty much shoved off the table, in spite of the fact that they match all but one factor on that list (number 9 is irrelevant since communist regimes WERE the corporations).

Communist regimes accounted for almost 100 million murdered people over the past century, not counting deaths in wars.

And no, communism is not a "religion" any more than secular humanism is.

I have no problem with the views of the Council for Secular Humanism, and even support most of them, but let's not get silly about trying to completely mesh totalitarianism and religion. Totalitarianism goes a lot deeper than that, and the worst damage in our history has been done by non-religious regimes.

BTW, next time, just throw the link in there. We'll read it.
