Does the collapse of the Soviet Union prove that communism doesn't work?
No, the collapse of the USSR does not actually prove that communism doesn't work, any more than the failure of Joe's Fish and Chips proves that restaurants don't work. The failure of the Soviet Union and its satellite states is just one example in which a paranoid version of communism didn't work. It may well be that it is possible to do it better. Although I offer no guarantees.
How did the Industrial Revolution lead to the rise of communism in Russia?
During the Industrial Revolution, Karl Marx, a German philosopher, created Marxism. He believed that everyone was essentially good and believed in an egalitarian society in which everyone would be equal. The only way this would happen, though, is if the proletariat class revolted. Sadly, when Marxism is put into practice, it creates communism. This was nothing near to what Marx intended, though. Russia tried to enforce Marxism (with the slight problem that they had no proletariat class) and ended up with communism.
What kind of government did Bolsheviks establish in?
No, they did not, at least true communism as envisioned by Karl Marx. The Bolsheviks imposed a socialist system in Russia even though they called it communist. In Marxian communism there would be no social classes, no thought of working for personal wealth and no government. When Lenin and the Bolsheviks took over, social classes did not disappear. People in charge of government still looked down on the ordinary worker and peasant farmer. People still wanted to work for personal gain. This necessitated first imposition of "war communism," then the New Economic Policy. Finally, there certainly was a government. One that was more oppressive and repressive of the ordinary citizen that the Tsars or the bourgeoisie had ever been.
How did Lenin retreat from pure communism?
Lenin believed pure communism could not be achieved immediately. What he began instead was the "New Economic Policy". He believed this would put Russia on the road to pure communism over time. He also sought cooperation from other nations in order to bring the desired economic state about.

Why after being allies in the war did the USA and Britain fall out with Russia?
Russia was committed to Communism and Russian citizens were trying to leave because of a dismal economy. Russia was convinced that Communism would work and was threatened by the success of Western economies. They closed their borders and entered into the cold war in an attempt to prove their capabilities.
Is communism a sin?
Absolutley not. Communism is the farthest thing from a sin and anyone who thinks that is a retard. Communism is a great idea but it is just very hard to maintain. When people hear the word communism they just think its bad because Russia was under communist rule during the Cold War but that is just typical American ignorance. It is a great idea and the only reason it has failed is because of human flaw not because communism is a bad idea. It could work but humans are just arrogant, lazy, backstabbing species.
