"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." Ephesians 6:12

A couple of years ago I learned that Karl Marx impregnated a handmaiden at the place where he was living and then rejected the son that she conceived from him, he also neglected several of his other children to the point of literal starvation, and two out of three of his surviving daughters committed suicide in their adulthood. And then, when when you thought such a person couldn't fall any lower...

My father was a Stalinist. I grew up listening to him pontificate at the dinner table about Marx and Engles. As a I got older and educated I realised there was something very very wrong with this whole twisted philosophy. It took me years to shake off my conditioning and realise just how evil these people are.

I used to be an atheistic moron, then I grew up. I now thank the almighty lord for everything I have in my life. And it’s for sure made me a better person.

In my D&D campaign, I made a prop that was an excerpt of what’s called The Book of Vile Darkness. I filled this prop with scrabbled writings about bringing the world down to hell. It was supposed to convey the writings of a murderous madman.

My players, mostly woke ideologues with Communist predilections, felt defiled just holding my prop.

Little did they know, they were reading Karl Marx’s poetry.

"By their fruits ye shall know them."

Today the fruits of Marx are abundantly clear. Regardles of his own religious affiliation, his ideas are a force of darkness.

I am Polish, born into anti communism, definitely knew about it to completely reject it but have never heard about that part of his wretched life. My deep thanks !

Dr. Kengor! Your classes were the best at Grove City College! Great to see you with Dr. Peterson, I hope it was a blast!

Isn't Satan's greatest trick convincing us he doesn't exist? Of course the darkest evils on Earth are going to disguise themselves as saviors of humanity and not occult madmen.

It's a political ideology whose core is envy. That envy turns to greed in the name of right. Sounds pretty freaking dark to me.

you don't have to be a Satanist to be used by Satan

"You must understand, the leading Bolsheviks who took over Russia were not Russians. They hated Russians. They hated Christians" Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Today my coworkers and I were talking about one of our colleagues that is sympathetic to communism, China, Russia etc. although he also appreciates too much a good life, living in an expensive neighborhood, owning an expensive car, hiring an expensive company to organize his children’s birthdays, traveling a lot and taking care of his family assets, cause his parents are elderly and have some properties (they were traders). It’s so incongruent. Doesn’t he know that probably he and all his family would be dispossessed and maybe even killed because would be labeled bourgeois if they had lived during socialist revolutions in Russia, China, Cambodja etc?

Kudos to both these men for exposing the idolatry and depravity of Marxism. Clearly i have more to read and learn about.

Read "Marx: Prophet of Darkness" by Wurmbrand. He argues Marx worshipped satan.
If you think of it, the most effective way to spread satanism would be to pretend it isn't, to spread it in deed, not in creed: People have been inducted into de facto satanism, in deed, and, now, all that remains is to bring in the capstone of the actual "theological" doctrine, which they will accept, because its deeds have already been accepted (more and more as time passes).

We all are worshiping something… even if you think it’s nothing… that’s something. The devil is in the details and his best trick is to convince people that he doesn’t exist and he’s nothing. Talking about spiritual warfare is extremely important, thank you!

I find it horrifying how people can not see how evil Marx was.

What were the first sins of Lucifer before becoming the Devil? Envy and Pride. So, what's the best definition of a socialist (communi$t) ? Proud and envious. It makes sense, right? 🤔
