China still get's it's jollies with that whole cult of personality business. I wouldn't call the race until we're sure they're not going to start bowing to Dear Leader in the near future.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

It seems to me that both theocracies and enforced atheism lead to bad results. I'd rather not live in China, the former Soviet Union, Franco's Spain, any Islamic State, etc. for that reason.
That said, the free majority atheist counties seem to be doing just fine.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
