Top Ten Most Famous Atheists and Agnostics in Politics and Law

These are the most famous politicians who are atheists or agnostic. I am not praising these people. This is just a famous list
The Top Ten
1 Karl Marx Karl Heinrich Marx ( 5 May 1818 – 14 March 1883) was a German philosopher, critic of political economy, economist, historian, sociologist, political theorist, journalist and socialist revolutionary. His best-known titles are the 1848 pamphlet The Communist Manifesto and the four-volume Das Kapital (1867–1883). Marx's political and philosophical thought had enormous influence on subsequent intellectual, economic, and political history. His name has been used as an adjective, a noun, and a school of social theory.

As far as I'm concerned Marx is an idiot. On paper his ideals on Socialism sound great, but they are not practical and they have done nothing but fail. Great first list by the way.

2 Mao Zedong Mao Zedong, also transliterated as Mao Tse-tung and commonly referred to as Chairman Mao, was a Chinese communist revolutionary and founding father of the People's Republic of China, which he governed as Chairman of the Communist Party of China from its establishment in 1949, until his death in 1976. His Marxist–Leninist theories, military strategies, and political policies are collectively known as Maoism or Marxism–Leninism–Maoism.

Screw him. He's the man that completely ruined China.

3 Joseph Stalin Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin was a Georgian dictator, and was the leader of the Soviet Union from the mid-1920s until his death in 1953. Holding the post of the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, he was effectively the dictator of the state.

Stalin was debatebly worse than Hitler. I won't make that argument, but you could make the case. Definitely wasn't that much better than Hitler. He didn't fight Hitler for freedom and democracy like the U.S., Britain, or France. He fought for power.

4 Benito Mussolini Benito Amilcare Andrea Mussolini was an Italian politician, journalist, and leader of the National Fascist Party, ruling the country as Prime Minister from 1922 until he was ousted in 1943. He ruled constitutionally until 1925, when he dropped all pretense of democracy and set up a legal dictatorship.

Hitler's pawn. Mussolini was filled with too much rage to understand the nature of Hitler. Even if the Axis Powers won, Hitler would have betrayed him.

5 Mustafa Kemal
6 Vladimir Lenin Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov (22 April 1870–21 January 1924), better known as Vladimir Lenin, was a Russian revolutionary, politician, and political theorist. He served as the first and founding head of government of Soviet Russia from 1917 to 1924 and of the Soviet Union from 1922 to 1924. Under his administration, Russia, and later the Soviet Union, became a one-party socialist state governed by the Communist Party. Ideologically a Marxist, his developments to the ideology are called Leninism.

People like to defend Lenin. Let's remember Lenin also led a pointless bloody Revolution in an attempt to implement Communism.

7 Pol Pot Pol Pot, born Saloth Sar, was a Cambodian revolutionary who led the Khmer Rouge from 1963 until 1997. From 1963 to 1981, he served as the General Secretary of the Communist Party of Kampuchea.

9 Kyrsten Sinema
10 Mátyás Rákosi

Brutal Communist dictator of Hungary, who let Stalin’s NKVD take over. He also had the death bells, if the police came at the middle of the night, they made a sound with a bell and lost people would commit suicide rather then let themselves be captured
