No, it is a secular, explicitly atheist state, not a sectarian state. It tolerates minor expressions of religious practice and belief as a beneficial vent for any stress built up in daily life. It certainly does not tolerate any real sectarianism. Except for a few state approved religious leaders kept like monkeys on chains as mocking tokens to religious freedom, Any one in China who take his faith seriously enough to be seen as a sectarian has crossed an invisible line drawn by the state delimiting how seriously one could take one's faith without repercussion.
