Read the links
Neither of those links address Stalin in any way, shape or form. You appear to be making the argument that since Lenin and Stalin were both communists, that words written by Lenin can be used to divine what Stalin thought. Fail.
I don't doubt for a second that Stalin's form of communism was very hostile to religion. However, the vast majority of deaths attributable to Stalin are a result of the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union and were politically motivated.
