Most historians and analysts will point to the way communism was ran in Russia as the reason it failed. Communism is supposed to work as a communal effort, but in the USSR people were taking advantage of the government and corrupted it. The poor leaders and the increasing corruption led to the downfall of the Soviet Empire. Remember, a lot of people suffered greatly because of the way things happened there. The country went into poverty and many people who didn't agree with the Atheist thinking had to face cold and hunger, so I would doubt that God's finger was the thing to collapse the communist system in Europe and Russia.

No, no finger of God. It was that governing in such an insular way is not economically sound, especially when you throw most of your resources into an army for a war that they never had the guts to start.
Don't blame everything on the atheists :) 1/3 of Russia, for example, was Christian. But there was no freedom of religion there, as there is in the US. You can't look at a situation in a bottle. Try looking at all the factors.

"The drive of the Rockefellers and their allies is to create a one-world government combining supercapitalism and Communism under the same tent, all under their control.... Do I mean conspiracy? Yes I do. I am convinced there is such a plot, international in scope, generations old in planning, and incredibly evil in intent." -- Congressman Larry P. McDonald, 1976
"American soldiers are dumb animals to be used in the furtherance of 'our' foreign policy. Today, America would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order. Tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if they were told that there were an outside threat from beyond, whether real or promulgated,' that threatened our very existence. It is then that all peoples of the world will plead to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this 'scenario', individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well-being granted to them by the [One]World Government. NAFTA is a major stepping stone to the New World Order."-Dr. Heinz "Henry" Kissinger

China embraced capitalism about 30 years ago. They still have terrible problems, though, with homelessness and poverty. All of the wealth is concentrated in Shanghai, Beijing, Hong Kong, etc., while the inlands are filled with migratory people on the brink of starvation and riddled with preventable diseases. That's why, despite China having the 3rd largest economy in the world, their per capita income is below $2000 per year, putting them past #170 on the list of only about 230 countries worldwide.

No, because the atheistic democratic system is doing just fine in Sweden and Japan.

So Christians are as lacking in the subjects of politics, economics and history as they are in science. Sad.

It has nothing to do with God, God is imaginary. You shouldn't capitalize "atheist".
