Religion is an instrument of the ruling classes to instill in the masses the religious conviction that their current suffering will lead to eventual happiness.
Born in Pryluky, a city in the Chernihiv Oblast (province) of present-day north-central Ukraine (at the time a part of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic), Oleg Koshevoy"s family moved south to Rzhyshchiv and Poltava before settling in Krasnodon (at the eastern border of Ukraine) in 1940, where he attended secondary school. Under the leadership of the party underground, Koshevoy organized an anti-nazi Communist Youth League (Communist Youth) organization called the Young Guard (Russian: Молодая гвардия, translit Molodaya gvardiya), becoming its commissar.
All policy decisions should be made in the light of the continued, permanent development of the theory of Marxism–Leninism.
