and God created man in his own image... we should be realist! Men created gods in their own images, so many gods... Whatever you believe it would be contradictory to try to prove it. I mean if we could be sure that a God exists you couldnt speak anymore of a croyance but of a science, a knowledge, and this god wouldnt be a god anymore.
For Marx, Man makes religion, religion does not make man. Religion is indeed man's self-consciousness and self-awareness so long as he has not found himself or has already lost himself again. Religion is the fantastic realization of the human essence since the human essence has not acquired any true reality. The struggle against religion is, therefore, indirectly the struggle against that world whose spiritual aroma is religion.
Religious suffering is, at one and the same time, the expression of real suffering and a protest against real suffering.
RELIGION IS THE SIGH OF THE OPPRESSED CREATURE, THE HEART OF THE HEARTLESS WORLD, AND THE SOUL OF THE SOULLESS CONDITIONS. IT IS THE OPIUM OF (some) PEOPLE
