Once abolish the God, and the government becomes the God. That fact is
written all across human history; but it is written most plainly across
that recent history of Russia; which was created by Lenin. There the
Government is the God, and all the more the God, because it proclaims
aloud in accents of thunder, like every other God worth worshipping, the
one essential commandment: 'Thou shalt have no other gods but Me.'
G.K. Chesterton: Christendom in Dublin
