Religion: The opium of the people
More accurately:
| "Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, just as it is the spirit of a spiritless situation. It is the opium of the people." |
| Karl Marx, Communist political philosopher (1818 - 1883), Critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right |
Any other Marxist tidbits you'd like to share with us?
