Did you even read what I wrote?
I said:
There was persecution, but it demonstrates that the problem was with the government and its practices, rather than the rejection of faith. When you impose your beliefs onto others and impede the progression of society, then it's a bad thing, no matter where it comes from.
In your link:
In 1944, when the Soviet Union occupied Romania as the first step to establishing a communist regime, Wurmbrand began a ministry to his Romanian countrymen and to Red Army soldiers. When the government attempted to control churches , he immediately began an "underground" ministry to his people. He was arrested on February 29, 1948, while on his way to church services.[1]
Communism doesn't presuppose atheism, and atheism doesn't presuppose persecution.
