Dear Rick,
you need to read the whole thing what I said.
I will fight these bastards to the death, I am not going back to communism.
What I am trying to say is that they are stronger than us in the military way because they continued to produce weapons while we trusted their "word of honor", which communists don't have any honor.
It is the question of religion, because otherwise Our Lady the Blessed Virgin Mary wouldn't say it about Russia in 1917, in Fatima Portugal.
The Rosary works, the devil hates it.
Praying is good, action is needed, that is precisely what I am arguying here. I'm sorry it didn't look as such from my posts.
You can find what I am saying precisely in the piece I wrote called
Holy Crusade against Communists.
And yes, religion plays the most important role in this saga because when people choose their ways before God's, that's when the problem starts.
Ezechiel 39 explains it well, so does other parts of the Bible.
I am not trying to change anybody's mind, I am only being witness to the truth and so I have to say it as it is, according to my Catholic Faith.
I think this shows the ultimate mercy of God to those who "think themselves wise, so that they may become fools so that they make become wise ...." [quoting St. Paul].
And another useful quote:
20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
21 For seeing that in the wisdom of God the world, by wisdom, knew not God, it pleased God, by the foolishness of our preaching, to save them that believe. 22 For both the Jews require signs, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews indeed a stumblingblock, and unto the Gentiles foolishness: 24 But unto them that are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. 25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
Note: 25 "The foolishness"... That is to say, what appears foolish to the world in the ways of God, is indeed most wise; and what appears weak is indeed above all the strength and comprehension of man.
In Christ and Mary
