You people seem to have better knowledge on communism atleast than me. The confusion for me is that if capitalism is acceptable to us why not communism, afterall many capitalist societies are also athiest or secular. Capitalism encourages accumulation of wealth, but its drawbacks are never seen in context of religion, unlike communism. Interest system is acceptable for us, multinational companies' hegemony is ok for us and state's authority over wealth is not. how come.
I have read a statement of marx stating "education, religion, morality system are all tools to maintain status quo", if we see it has a bit of truth in it. isn't it. And if we amend it to suit our society maybe it works better than capitalism.
I really want to get convinced against it
