Marx and Satan

Marx and Satan by Richard Wurmbrand

It is not that at different stages in life he held different opinions. In his pseudo- Zionist book he declares that he does not disown his former godless endeavors. No, this is an intentional “devilish muddle.”

Hess was Jewish and a forerunner of Zionism. Because Hess, Marx, and other people like them were Jewish, some people consider communism a Jewish plot. Yet Marx also wrote an anti-Jewish book. In this respect, too, he has simply followed Hess.

This “Zionist,” Hess, who elevates Jewry to heaven, wrote in his book About the Monetary System:

The Jews, who had the role, in the natural history of the social animal world, to develop mankind into a savage animal, have fulfilled this, their professional job. The mystery of Judaism and Christianity has been revealed in the modern Judeo- Christian. The mystery of the blood of Christ, like the mystery of the old Jewish worship of the blood, appears here unveiled as being the mystery of the predatory animal.

Don’t worry if you fail to understand these words. They were written “mixed up into a devilish muddle,” but the hatred for Jewishness contained in them is clear. Hess is a racist, Jewish as well as anti-Jewish, according to the needs of the spirit which inspired his works and which he calls “holy.”

Hitler could have learned his racism from Hess. He who had taught Marx that social class is a decisive factor also wrote the contrary: “Life is an immediate product of race.” Social institutions and conceptions, as well as religions, are typical and original creations of the race. The problem of race lies hidden behind all the problems of nationalities and freedom. All past history was concerned with the struggle of races and classes. Race struggle is primary; class struggle is secondary.

How will Hess manage to have so many contradictory ideas triumph?

I will use the sword against all citizens who resist the endeavors of the proletariat.

We will hear the same from Marx:

Violence is the midwife which takes the new society out of the womb of the old one.

Marx’s first teacher was the philosopher Hegel, who merely paved the way for Hess. Marx, too, had sucked poison from Hegel, for whom Christianity was wretched in comparison to the glorious past of Greek culture. Hegel wrote: “Christians have piled up such a heap of reasons for comfort in misfortune … that we ought to be sorry in the end that we cannot lose a father or a mother once a week,” while for the Greek “misfortune was misfortune, pain was pain.”

Christianity had been satirized in Germany before Hegel. But he was the first to satirize Jesus Himself. He also wrote nice things about Christianity, the same “devilish muddle.”
