this is simply another step pointed out by the leftist guru Antonio Gramsci!

Read up on Gramsci if you value your freedom and the lives of all your loved ones.

You are correct the Gramsci laid out a plan to discredit religion...see also pedophile priests in the Catholic Church, IMHO.

But sincere conversion of those who committed genocide was not part of Gramsci's agenda.

The question is not just whether the conversions to Christianity are sincere or fake; the question is, if they are sincere, how much pressure these people will be under to recant their conversion, and how much effort it will take to shake off a lifetime of brainwashing and the memory and guilt of having committed atrocities.

The Khmer Rouge remain human after all...and therefore remain subject to both grace and temptation.

How hard would it be for you to convert and stay converted if you had committed their crimes?

And if their conversions are fake, Who The F*ck are they trying to impress?

If you are saying these converts are disingenuous -- a proposition for which you have adduced no evidence -- I would commend to you the following excerpt from the Gospel, which predates Gramsci by a couple of millennia, give or take:

Matthew 13
24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:
25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?
28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?
29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
