== == There is a difference between "officially" atheist and "effectively" atheist
The Communist Party of China, who govern the nation, is atheistic, came to power in 1949 and restricted religious freedom. This made the country "officially" atheist.
However, by and large the people of China are not atheist. The majority of Chinese people are either Buddhist or Daoist (Taoist), or both. Significant minorities are Muslim or Christian. The Falun Gong movement claims a growing number of adherents, although it is illegal and must operate underground. Of course, there are also many atheists, although it is hard to estimate the proportion of atheists in China.
