How would describe the interaction between your Christian beliefs and Historical Materialism? I bet it’s a valuable point of view to understand for someone like me, for whom religion has never been an integral aspect of subjective experience
I’m not an expert on that side of Marxism but I never really understood the conflict - or at least how it’s any different to the conflict between religion and science. You can ignore the contradiction, or just suggest that God created the laws of nature and hasn’t really intervened since
