I put Books to the Test of Life
Atheism, a term encompassing worldviews that interpret the world on their own terms, dismissing religious beliefs, has a longstanding history dating back to the early days of philosophical pondering. Its roots can be traced back to ancient Ionian natural philosophers like Thales, Anaximenes, and Anaximander. Noteworthy figures in ancient atheistic thought were Epicurus and Lucretius, who laid down fundamental principles for a scientific critique of religion through materialistic philosophies.
The evolution of atheistic ideas gained momentum during the revolutionary struggles of the bourgeoisie against the societal norms and feudal ideologies. It developed in close association with science and materialism, serving as a potent ideological weapon in the class struggle against the secular and clerical aristocracy. The groundwork for bourgeois atheism was meticulously laid by materialist thinkers such as Diderot, Holbach, Helvetius, and Lamettrie. Atheism played a significant role in shaping the ideological landscape that paved the way for the French bourgeois revolution and left a lasting impact on intellectual spheres across various countries.
Further advancements in atheistic thought came through the contributions of materialist philosopher and religious critic Feuerbach. Despite the significance of bourgeois atheism in challenging religious worldviews, it had its limitations due to a lack of understanding of the social foundations and roots of religion. These gaps were addressed with the development of dialectic and historical materialism.
Marx and Engels elevated atheism to a qualitatively superior level with their worldview. Lenin, building upon their foundations, refined and developed Marxist atheism within the context of imperialism. The classic thinkers of Marxism-Leninism meticulously explored the social foundations and epistemological roots of religion, demonstrating how religious consciousness could be practically and theoretically overcome. The key prerequisites for this transformation include the eradication of antagonistic class structures and the establishment of a socialist society free from exploitation and repression, where religion loses its societal foothold.
It was only a small step for Jewry to move from equality to the demand for political leadership. This step came with the birth of Marxist doctrine, whose inventor was the Jew Karl Marx-Mordechai. It was preached to the peoples as the “doctrine of salvation for a new age,” even though it was only a hidden form of Jewish destructive desire that served Jewry’s goal of world domination. It contains all the subversive, people-destroying principles of Bolshevism. It teaches the destruction of the family, it denies the existence of any divine power, it demands the abolition of private property and the destruction of the peasantry, the destruction of the foundations of any ethnic order of life. The means to realize Marxist doctrine was class struggle, which Marx-Mordechai preached in the Communist Manifesto:
"data furnished by the Soviet press, out of 556 important functionaries of the Bolshevik state, including the above-mentioned, in 1918-1919 there were: 17 Russians, two Ukrainians, eleven Armenians, 35 Letts [Latvians], 15 Germans, one Hungarian, ten Georgians, three Poles, three Finns, one Czech, one Karaim, and 457 Jews."
