What do the Scriptures say about bad trees being unable to produce good fruit? From his student days, Marx rejected the Christianity of his boyhood in Trier.
He wrote: " I long to take vengeance on the One who rules from above." Not exactly the words of a proclaimed atheist, are they? He believed in God - and hated Him.
In his poem "The Player," Marx wrote: " The hellish vapours rise and fill the brain, Till I go mad and my heart is utterly changed. See this sword? The prince of darkness Sold it to me. For me he beats the time and gives the signs. Ever more boldly I play the dance of death."
His unfinished work 'Oulanem' was a tribute to Satan. His maid - I do not know if this is the same one he got pregnant {in a very egalitarian sort of way} - reported seeing him worshipping at an altar with candles and bedecked in black.
There are a great many clues to his beliefs which perhaps warrant study from leftwingers who claim to be Christian. What is perhaps less clear is whether or not he actually was a freemason. It appears that he may well have been but the evidence is less than conclusive.
In the mid 90s 'Le Figaro' had totalled up 165 million deaths which could be laid directly at the feet of Communism - and lefties dare to claim that most wars are all about 'religion!'
