Well, Ratzinger is trying to blame it on atheism.

Perhaps he said thats because athiestic regimes have caused more suffering than theistic ones.

mao and stalin pale in comparison to the religious zealotry that destroyed so many lives. from the crusades to the holocaust to the opression in Sudan, religion taken too far has killed millions and millions lives lost due to a disagreement of faith. furthermore "atheist regimes" have mostly killed not because they are atheist, but for other political/social reasons, can you say the same of theist regimes?
