OUTDATED MARXISM?

"A study of the effect of religion on quality of life claims that religious people are happier the more often they go to church and pray. The research, presented to the Royal Economic Society, gathered data from thousands across Europe including the UK and found that religious people have better “life satisfaction” than their non-religious counterparts." (Times, 18 March) Religion is the opium of the people. It is the heart of a heartless world. The cry of the oppressed creature." (Karl Marx, 1844) RD
