It's interesting that we usually claim that we are not religious but when time is hard/important, e.g., final exams, family in hospital, natural disasters, Lunar New Years... we suddenly all pray and think of "God". Wholeheartedly.

I knew you would notice and comment on that Marxism - Leninism is interesting, and so is the Communist thing, but I never got to know why they are such weird/absurd ideas for Westerners? Not very often but not rarely either, they are even used to insult, to tease those who are from the USSR. People think ill of the communists. Why so? Is that because we are taught different views in schools?
(Uhm... perhaps this is not in the right thread?)
