Karl Marx:
"For Germany, the criticism of religion has been essentially com-
pleted, and the criticism of religion is the prerequisite of all crit-
icism." 47
"The abolition of religion as the illusory happiness of the people
is the demand for their real happiness." 48
"Man makes religion, religion does not make man. … This state
and this society produce religion, which is an inverted con-
sciousness of the world, because they are an inverted world." 49
Joseph Stalin :
"Then Devil is with us, and together we will win." (In response
to Churchill's "God is with us", during WW2) 50
"We carry on and will continue to carry on propaganda against
religious prejudices. … The Party cannot be neutral towards reli-
gion and does conduct anti-religious propaganda against all and
every religious prejudice…" 51
Nikita Khrushchev: (Secretary General of the Soviet Communist
Party, 1953)
"Communism has not changed its attitude of opposition to reli-
gion. We are doing everything we can to eliminate the bewitch-
ing power of the opium of religion." 52
