Stalin had no belief in any religion. He was an atheist but he made no pronouncements about what religion was. It was Karl Marx who wrote that religion was the opium of the people. This meant that religion was used by one social class to oppress the other by making it conform to certain types of behavior for reasons that could not be questioned because they had to be taken on faith.

∙ 13y agoStalin took the position that religion was an opiate that needed to be removed in order to construct an ideal communist society. His government promoted Atheism through special atheistic education in schools, the work enviornment, public institutions, laws, and other campaigns. Throughout his reign, it was dangerous to become publicly associated with religion. Towards the time of his death, certain religions were completely outlawed.
