“John Hodgson can describe Richard Dawkins's atheism as vacuous only because 'atheist' is a term which non-believers use purely as a polemical convenience when we have to define concisely what we don't believe [...]. No atheist is principally that. What we'd want to call ourselves is humanist or materialist, or biologist or linguist, or for that matter socialist, because one or more of these, or something else again, is what we do and think and are. We have 'purely and simply finished with God', to adapt a phrase of Engels's.” GodReligionAtheismSelf ConceptAtheistsLinguistsSocialistsRichard DawkinsHumanistsBiologistsLrbFriedrich EngelsJohn HodgsonMaterialists Author:David Craig
“To say that "the worker has an interest in the rapid growth of capital", means only this: that the more speedily the worker augments the wealth of the capitalist, the larger will be the crumbs which fall to him, the greater will be the number of workers than can be called into existence, the more can the mass of slaves dependent upon capital be increased.” CapitalismCapitalistCapitalKarl MarxWage SlaveryWage LaborWage LabourFriedrich Engels Book:Wage-Labour and Capital & Value, Price and Profit Source: Wage-Labour and Capital & Value, Price and Profit
