Let me add, Communism isn't about oppressing religion, but any kind of dissent. There are Christian Churches in Russia, and even China, and Cuba has tons of Catholic Churches.
As long as you tow the party line in any of those states, odds are they will leave you alone.
As an atheist, being as vocal as I am about government, I would be quickly arrested or murdered by those states if I lived in any of them.
I wouldn’t.
Standing up for your principles is all well and good, but if my choices are ‘towing’ the party line or twenty years in a North Korean labour camp, I’d be singing hymns of praise to the beloved Supreme Leader so fast the air would crackle.
