  • Is Religion the Opium of the People?

    Is Religion the Opium of the People?

    Reading Friends Meeting House 2 Church Street, Reading, United Kingdom

    Karl Marx famously described religion as the "Opium of the People". Was he right? Join us for a discussion of the nature of religion, how did it come about, and what role has it played in society. Alan Montgomery, chair of Reading Humanists, will lead a discission of whether this holds true, or if there is another way to understand religion.
