1.
Socialism and communism are the same ideology
Communism is an extreme form of socialism. From the ideological
standpoint, there is no substantial difference between the two. In fact, the
communist Soviet Union called itself the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics
(1922–1991) and communist China, Cuba and Vietnam define themselves as
socialist nations. All communist countries legalized abortion. Communist China
and its infamous “one-child policy” goes one step further by forcing mothers to
have abortions.
2. Socialism violates personal freedom
Socialism seeks to eliminate “injustice” by transferring rights
and responsibilities from individuals and families to the State. In the
process, socialism actually creates injustice. It destroys true liberty by
taking away the freedom to decide all matters that pertain to the individual.
The will of the State replaces the laws of morality and thus opens the way to
abortion.
3. Socialism violates human nature
Socialism is anti-natural. It destroys personal initiative, a
fruit of our intellect and free will, and replaces it with State control. It
tends to totalitarianism, with its government and police repression, wherever
it is implemented.
4. Socialism violates private property
Socialism calls for “redistribution of the wealth” by taking
from the “rich” and giving to the “poor.” It imposes taxes that punish those
who took greater advantage of their productive talents, capacity to work or
thrift. It uses taxation to promote economic and social “egalitarianism,” a
goal that will be fully achieved, according to The Communist Manifesto, with
the “abolition of private property.” Thus, the destruction of property takes
away the conditions for the healthy functioning of the family.
5. Socialism opposes traditional marriage
Socialism sees no moral reason for people to restrict sex to
marriage, the indissoluble union between a man and a woman. Furthermore,
socialism undermines private property, which Friedrich Engels, founder of
modern socialism and communism along with Karl Marx, saw as the foundation of
traditional marriage.
6. Socialism opposes parental rights in education
Socialism has the State control the education of children.
Almost from birth, children are to be handed over to public institutions, where
they will be taught what the State wants, regardless of parental views.
7. Socialism promotes radical equality
A supposed absolute equality among men is the fundamental
assumption of socialism. Therefore, it sees any inequality as unjust in itself.
Private employers are quickly portrayed as “exploiters” whose profits really
belong to their employees. This radical equality also favors “sexual equality”
and the destruction of the family.
8. Socialism promotes atheism
Belief in God, Who unlike us is infinite, omnipotent and
omniscient, clashes head-on with the principle of absolute equality. Socialism
therefore rejects the spiritual, claiming that only matter exists. God, the
soul and the afterlife are illusions according to socialism.
9. Socialism promotes moral relativism
For socialism there are no absolute truths or revealed morals
that establish standards of conduct that apply to everyone, everywhere and
always. Everything evolves, including right and wrong, good and evil. There is
no place for the Ten Commandments, neither in the private mind nor in the
public square.
10. Socialism mocks religion
According to Karl Marx, religion is “the opium of the people.”
Lenin, founder of the Soviet Union, agreed, “Religion is opium for the people.
Religion is a sort of spiritual booze in which the slaves of capital drown
their human image, their demand for a life more or less worthy of man.”
