Marx once said, “A religion is the same as an opium”
So does he called an atheist afterwards. By those who conceal under the cloak of God. Those whom names are righteous owner of the law. Those who oppose him as a lord of the stage.
On this modern world. Opium is more than just an opium. Opium is a business, something sweet and enjoyable. The runaway of those who trapped in the distress. A runaway for those who shed the blood of the innocent. A mere tool for recreation, life, and identity. Opium is the solution for identity crisis, while it creates the crisis.
How opium destroys a society in anything they called. Opium is just a drugs. Drugs compounded from a weak beautiful flower bearing the name, ‘Poppy’. The common understandings of opium, sometimes leads us to war. An ideological war against the power of sweet memories.
Opium offers us a sweet memories. Though just an illusion it is still something sweet. Human sometimes can’t resist and always fell apart against a seduction of the sweetness of life. So do someone said that “happiness leads to unawareness, and it leads to annihilation”.
For that reason Marx stated his statement. A short statement misused by the regime to deploy the power against religion. Against the will of God, bearing the name as an atheist.
While we modern peoples simply described Marx as an atheist through the story of the regime. Not through Marx itself.
The sweet memories is the true power of opium and religion. Both of them offers sweetness that no any human could resists. Both of them could lead a society into a calm power that someone could easily take over to. Combined with principle of Machiavelli. Marx and Machiavelli, their principles combined is the perfect recipe to control the people power.
Machiavelli, long before Marx stated his statement, said that a lord should use and may use anything and any kind of method to control and somehow manipulate his society.
And Marx stated it specifically. Use religion as an opium, a drugs that should control and cage the peoples mind. Holding the power tangled with the sweetness of religion.
Machiavelli and Marx, much more resembles Newton and Einstein. Newton stated the law of himself, while then only to be broke by Einstein.
So one more the philosophy of life we could learn from them. The previous generations may have created the law but the next generations may break it as we evolve.
Machiavelli may have the statement of is own, may have been used by the lord to legitimate all of their will. But then Marx said to control and cage the people power only religion that is necessary.
So why would we call Marx as an atheist? He soften the statement founds within the Il Principe. So why should we brand him clueless?
Those who conceal under the name of God, clueless by the sweetness of opium they made by themselves.
Those whom names are the righteous owner of law, clueless by the height of the law.
Those who oppose Marx as a lord and brand him an atheist, truly you are the atheist for obliterating the essence of God within your principles.
