The present article exposes the philosopher Karl Marx's critical thinking about religion and the modern state, considering its structures and contradictions with the reality of capitalist society, and its main objective is to generate a reflection about the impossibility of the permanence of religion in an emancipated society. Showing in his writings categorically, Marx states that religion, as a superstructure, is not present in an emancipated society, and that attributing to the way in which a capitalist society dominates humanity in all its spheres of activity, such as work, reproduction, education, material conditions of existence, perpetuating the bourgeois ideology, not only in the mode of production, but also within the subjectivity of man, making him obtain a religion as a form of refuge.
