daylight, thanks for that explanation! I have no idea why intellectuals (actually those that believe themselves) flock to Marxist beliefs.

Marxism is a utopian vision. It is a product of the rejection of God and an attempt to co-opt biblical values and ethics in a completely atheist context. This vision is sold as a "religion" to general public where all are asked to look out for all of the "people" as a general goal.

The system inevitably breaks down because as this whole system by rejecting God falls into abject idol worshiping, nihilism, and tyranny.

You start down this path by first losing your way to God, the rest is easy. And Academia seems to be be first and fore most determined to sever an individuals relationship with God as prerequisite to opening the mind to "reality."
