When a government actively opposes a religion, that religion often flourishes. The result can be that the government becomes increasingly repressive until finally the religion is destroyed or driven so far underground that the government no longer has any control over its existence.

In China, the government actively opposes Falun Dafa but, by all accounts, it is flourishing. Christianity is persecuted in North Korea, but appears to survive against the odds. The Roman Empire actively opposed Christianity in the late third century, but it continued to flourish and became the religion of the Empire during the course of the fourth century.
