Yes. But Marx spoke about his own kind of secular persons of Jewish heritage. His statement did not speak of the millions of Jews that affirm their faith in God and try to follow Biblical moral teachings. Marx denigrated his pen kind of secular “jew “ — and many would say that he knew his subject well — all too well perhaps when you examine his own life
The fellow who said his goal was to “dethrone God” had to have been talking about the believing Jews and not the secular ones.
