I quote, "religion is the opiate of the masses." Marx was an avid atheist and a follower of the philosophy of Ludwig Feuerbach, a firm believer in the idea that man was in control of his own destiny.

Marx believed that religion was the fundamental tool for control over the populous, and openly objected to its use.
