“A wonderful time will come when your wives wear silk dresses and high-heeled shoes. There will no longer be rich and poor. Everyone will be happy.” My mother would get to wear a silk dress, my sister would be in heels. I’d go to school…everyone would live like brothers and sisters, everyone would be equal. How can you not fall in love with a dream like that!
It's the Kingdom of Heaven, only you don't have to die (and Jesus doesn't have to come again or even exist) for it to be real. This is a distinctive feature of Communism as religious faith. And, make no mistake about it, Communism is a religious faith as much as—if not more than—it's an economic or political system.
