Article 52 [Religion]
(1) Citizens of the USSR are guaranteed freedom of conscience, that is, the right to profess or not to profess any religion, and to conduct religious worship or atheistic propaganda. Incitement of hostility or hatred on religious grounds is prohibited.
(2) In the USSR, the church is separated from the state, and the school from the church.
And Liberals wonder why we hate their ideals so much !
Article 2 [Foundational Principles]
The Islamic Republic is a system based on belief in:
1) the One God (as stated in the phrase "There is no god except Allah"), His exclusive sovereignty and right to legislate, and the necessity of submission to His commands; 2) Divine revelation and its fundamental role in setting forth the laws;
3) the return to God in the Hereafter, and the constructive role of this belief in the course of man's ascent towards God;
4) the justice of God in creation and legislation;
5) continuous leadership and perpetual guidance, and its fundamental role in ensuring the uninterrupted process of the revolution of Islam; 6) the exalted dignity and value of man, and his freedom coupled with responsibility before God; in which equity, justice, political, economic, social, and cultural independence, and national solidarity are secured by recourse to: a) continuous leadership of the holy persons, possessing necessary qualifications, exercised on the basis of the Koran and the Sunnah, upon all of whom be peace;
b) sciences and arts and the most advanced results of human experience, together with the effort to advance them further;
c) negation of all forms of oppression, both the infliction of and the submission to it, and of dominance, both its imposition and its acceptance.
We could change some of the words around, and we'd have a Christian Constitution. That would really help, don't you think?
Additionally, Mauritania, Nicaragua, abandoned the yoke of communism in the past decade.
Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Bosnia, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Chad, Republican Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Haiti, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Malawi, Moldova, Mozambique, Niger, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, Syria, Togo, Ukraine, Vietnam, and Yemen have taken steps to shed the yoke of Communism but remain strapped with socialist economies. (The People's Republic of China, for its part, is a socialist economy and has been so for the past decade, having left the disastrous policies of the genocidal yet still revered Mao Zedong in the past.)
The Communists still control Angola, Belarus, Burma, Burundi, Democratic Congo, Cuba, Iran, Democratic Korea, Libya, Serbia, Sudan, Suriname, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan. Communist dictatorships have emerged in Zimbabwe, Nigeria, and (more recently) Venezuela. Why don't these leftists move to any of these countries, more accommodating to their worldviews?
