Thread:User talk:Reckless Noise Symphony/And Stalin was an atheist/reply (2)

Yes, Stalin was an atheist. But the disconnect here is that Stalin didn't do what he did IN THE NAME OF ATHEISM. Now, if Richard Dawkins murders millions of people, you may have a point. Contrast that to Leonard Piekoff, who is batshit crazy and puts his batshit crazy exclusively under the umbrella of Objectivism. Look, I'm not saying that all Objectivists are as batshit crazy as he is, but I am saying that he has been a significant part of Objectivism since Rand's inception of it (as he was a close, personal friend of Rand herself). To ignore completely his role or the ARI's role in Objectivism would be misleading at best.
