Hi, guys.
The Cultural Revolution, for one that I'm personally pretty close to.
Yes, it wasn't a bunch of high-minded rational intellectual atheists. High minded rational intellectuals, religious or not, rarely massacre anyone. But it's decidely a decidedly atheist religious/social movement massacreing anyone and anything that goes agains the party line. Including the slaughter of monks, nuns, and holy men and the desecration of nearly every temple in China.
