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.
Communists do not have a unified belief regarding religion. Some communists adhere to Atheism or secularism, while others may be religious or spiritual. The emphasis in communism is usually on economic and social equality, rather than religious beliefs.
In can tell you about Romania (former communist country): religion was prohibited on a large scale, but most of the people were still going to church
Eddie Griffin has not publicly disclosed his religion.
One example of a religion that does not believe in Jesus as the central figure is Judaism. In Judaism, Jesus is not recognized as the Messiah or divine figure, and he is not considered part of their religious beliefs or teachings.
People who practice a religion typically believe in a higher power or deity, follow certain teachings or moral guidelines, participate in rituals or ceremonies, and may seek spiritual fulfillment, guidance, or a sense of purpose in their lives through their faith. Each religion has its own unique beliefs and practices that shape the worldview of its followers.
Yes, the Quaker religion is considered a Christian religion. Quakers believe in the core principles of Christianity, such as the belief in Jesus Christ as their savior and the importance of living a life in accordance with Christian values.
A person who believes in a higher power but does not adhere to a specific religion may be called a spiritual person, a deist, or someone who is spiritual but not religious. These individuals may believe in a higher power or universal force without following the doctrines of organized religion.
Communists believe in the seizure of political power by force.
No, the cambodian-vietnamese dictator Pol Pot never had a religion. Because, he was communist. communists don't believe in jesus or god and believe they're more powerful than any other race, belief, sex, or ideology.
Communists do not support any religion. Communists believe that loyalty should be toward their fellow man and fellow Communist brethren, thus no one holds a higher authority than the people. Some Asian Communistic groups push for Buddhism, but they are a small minority.

No, there is no evidence of this. While these sorts of assertions were very popular during the McCarthy era in the early 1950s (and led to the phrase "under God" being added to the pledge of allegiance, to demonstrate that Americans believed in God and were not like Communists, who were atheists), America has always been a religiously identified country, with large percentages of Americans (some polls show as many as 75-80%) saying they believe in God, and believe in their religion. There have also always been a percentage (currently about 14%) who do not believe in any religion, but these people are not Communists; they are free-thinkers, Humanists, and followers of other secular-based philosophies. There is no reason to believe that Communists, who make up a very small minority in North America, will ever have enough influence to change anyone's mind, nor is there evidence that Communists from other countries would be able to influence the religiosity of so many Americans.
They wanted the government to be supreme athoritayyy
