Bruno Miguel's Comments
Quoting Karl Marx:
«Religious distress is at the same time the expression of real distress and the protest against real distress. 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. The abolition of religion as the illusory happiness of the people is required for their real happiness. The demand to give up the illusion about its condition is the demand to give up a condition which needs illusions.»
Communist or not, he was absolutely correct about religion!

I can't help being astonished about the number of people that actually believe in any god. With all we know today, how's that possible?
