Drugs don't work without quote
Monday 01 August 2011
I have seen both "opium" and opiate" used in different translations of Marx on religion (Letters, M Star July 25 and July 27).
However to fully understand what Marx is saying, you need the quote in full.
"Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the sentiment of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people."
