Ah, so you were wrong.

Now onto the argument of popularity as proof, it is more than mere popularity, many countries used to be communist, but no longer. This drop in popularity probabaly has something to do with it not working properly, some might say the use of routine torture regardless of age and gender also has something to do with it as well. When we were discussing religion, we cannot make the comparison, niether Islam or Christianity can be said to have suffered critical drops in popularity and indeed both religions are still growing and will in my opinion continue to do so.
Where is communism going? Nowhere.

Socialism is a completley different issue, socialism has worked out well in many countries, countries which were opposed to communism.
