Hmmm. A Google books search for that phrase returns 4 references. None to Marx and the first two to books by, what looks like, evangelical nut-jobs.

Given the evangelical nut-job's predilection for quoting out of context, subtly changing the quote and out-and-out lying, I wouldn't be surprised to find that Marx did not say it.

I thought he called it "opium for the people"?
