Your unrelenting denials are fully expected. Marx was full of denial as well. Nevertheless, in his poem Pale Maiden he confessed the truth beginning with a tacit admission that the God of Revelation exists; a clear admission that heaven exists, that he is Imago Dei, and further, that he knows hell exists but that eternal damnation is his willful choice:
“Thus heaven I’ve forfeited; I know it full well; My soul, once true to God; Is chosen for hell.” (Marx & Satan, Richard Wurmbrand, p. 22)
What this means is that Marx did not believe in Darwinism and materialism or any of the naturalistic canon except as they served him in his war against God and the world He created. In company with Hegel, Comte, Nietzsche, Darwin, Teilhard, et al, Marx was a swindler. A Big Liar.
Like a long line of evolutionary materialist (naturalists) before him, Marx was in rebellion against the God of Revelation as He revealed Himself to man in Jesus Christ:
“Christianity is the most complete and perfect revelation we know of the nature of God and of God’s will for man.” The basic insights of the Christian faith “provide the best insights we have into the nature of man and of the crisis in which we find ourselves.” (John Hallowell, 1950, Intellectual Conservative Movement in America, George H. Nash, p. 53)
It is the living, personal God Who revealed Himself to man in Jesus Christ that evolutionary theistic naturalists are in rebellion against.
Marx knew hell exists-—and he chose it. Not only that, but through his swindle he led an unknown number of immortal souls to hell as well. And his eternal punishment will reflect his perfidy.
Beware you do not do the same.
A nonliving God without Will that they can mold, shape and speak for is just fine, as is a mortal Christ, a mere man who is the conscious product of evolution.
Thank you, FRiend, for using the correct term: "theistic naturalists".
It is a fancy term which, along with "philosophical naturalist" and "metaphysical naturalist" means nothing more than: atheist.
So far as I can tell, there are no "theistic naturalists" posting on this thread, and you do us a disservice to falsely accuse us of it.
