'The weapon of criticism cannot, of course, replace criticism of the weapon, material force must be overthrown by material force; but theory also becomes a material force as soon as it has gripped the masses.' - Karl Marx

Our lord Marx and his sidekick Engels loved the Christian theology. But really, who gives a shit?

Give me a serious analysis of this text.

To me, it is a genius and overlooked text of Marx's.
In the first part, Marx criticises political secularism as often being a motive for an intensified civic theocracy, as in the case of the US. This relates to Marx's reply to Bauer in general; that secularism is not enough, since the content of religion can transform itself in new ways. Such is the case of Judaism and Christianity; the Christian imagines that they have extinguished Judaism, but really, they are "inwardly circumcised" Jews, in the Paulian sense. The absence of the external Jew does not negate the internal Jew, and so on. Further, what is the spectre of Jewishness? To Marx and Bauer, the Jew represents capitalism in the realm of civil society, while the Christian sublimes this relation in the state. The Christian state thus preserves an inner Judaism, or as Marx says, the Christian has become a Jew himself (e.g. a capitalist), but in a more severe form, because he spiritualises it. The honest Jew is better than the dishonest Jew; that's what I interpret.
