According to Karl Marx, religion promotes stratification since it generally supports a hierarchy of people on earth and the subordination of humankind to an imagined divine authority

Explanation:

Karl Marx defines religion purely and simply as a projection of our earthly reality to a higher metaphysical plane. For him, religion consists of a fantastic world, created by the human mind that tries to give certain natural phenomena a supernatural air. This means that religion with its God is nothing more than a mere illusion, something that should not be credited. Something created to control the people.

Karl Marx

Explanation: Religion historically has always been fundamental to social change, either proliferating or suppressing it. Some of the ways religion does this is by justifying inequalities of power and wealth for the privileged, that it reflects the social stratification of society and perpetuates the status quo, while emphasizing rewards yet to come in the afterlife. This led Karl Marx to state while studying the social impact of religion, that religion promotes society's categorization of people into socioeconomic strata. The reason behind this is that religion to him, supports a hierarchy of people on earth and the subordination of humankind to an imagined divine authority.
