What has led you to believe that Christians in Communist countries have had to deny their faith?

They may not be able to practice it openly, but that is not the same as pronouncing that they don't believe.

Jews in the Soviet Union who wanted to practice openly their faith were barred from jobs and a host of State-controlled goods and services.

Any member of the Communist party by that act disavowed a belief in God.

Have you talked to believers who lived in the Soviet Union or Red China or read their accounts about what they had to do to get through each day and ultimately prevail?
