What was the belief held during the cold war regarding neighboring countries of communist countries all falling victim to communism known as?
It was called the Domino Theory.
This theory said, if a country becomes communist all its neighbors will eventually fall to communism like dominoes.
The reality is, countries don't become communist unless they're forced to. People like owning things. They like being able to go to the store and buy bananas if they want. And it's hard to do those things in a country where the state owns everything and foods are rationed.

What is Cold war consensus?
The Cold War consensus refers to the general agreement among Western nations, particularly the United States and its allies, regarding the need to contain the spread of communism and promote capitalist democracy during the Cold War era. This consensus shaped foreign policy, leading to military alliances like NATO, economic initiatives such as the Marshall Plan, and various interventions to counter perceived communist threats. It also fostered a shared ideological framework that justified actions taken against both communist states and movements worldwide. Ultimately, this consensus began to erode in the late 1960s and 1970s, as differing perspectives on foreign intervention and domestic issues emerged.

Do communists believe in no religion?
Some are, some are not. This question cannot be answered in a more complete way. It has no common context. It would be like asking, are janitors atheists, or are grocery clerks atheists? Or, even, what does blue taste like? There is no commonality for either concept beyond their mutual existence in the world. Communism is an economic (and political) perspective. Atheism deals directly with theology or "atheology" as the case may be. While Leninist/Stalinist/Maoist communism typically precludes religious organizations from legal existence, it is more for political purposes than theological ones. Churches have power over the people. The two major communistic governments of the world sought to remove power from all but the state. Hence the eradication of religious groups. Keep in mind however that the Greek Orthodox church continued to exist in some form during the entire reign of Soviet Communism, the Roman Catholic church enjoyed a certain degree of freedom during Czechoslovakia's communist era (now two separate countries Czech Republic and Slovakia, with parliamentary democracies, Roman Catholics make up the largest religious group in both countries), and although it was repressed so does Buddhism in China.
