马克思主义的宗教研究必须坚持无神论立场——纪念毛泽东关于加强宗教问题研究的批示50周年

Marxist Religious Studies Must Stick to an Atheistic Standpoint-In Commemoration of the Fifty Anniversary of Mao Zedong's Instruction on Reinforcing the Study of Religious Issues

马克思主义宗教观是彻底无神论的宗教观,坚持无神论是坚持马克思主义宗教观的题中应有之义。科学具有真理性和价值两重属性。科学研究既是追求真理,又是追求价值。马克思主义宗教研究的真理性和价值是高度统一的。在宗教研究中坚持真理,必须坚持无神论。我们共产党人既尊重宗教徒和信教群众信仰宗教的自由,又坚守无神论的思想阵地,面向广大的不信教群众宣传无神论,是以实事求是的科学态度维护中国最广大人民的根本利益。

Marxist religious outlook is a thoroughly atheistic outlook and sticking to atheism means sticking to the Marxist religious outlook.Science possesses both truth and value,that is,scientific research pursues both truth and value.The truth and value in Marxist religious studies is highly unified.It is necessary to stick to atheism and truth in religious studies.Respecting people's freedom of religion,standing fast on the ideological position of atheism and introducing atheism to the non-religious people,are acts that would protect the fundamental interests of the vast majority of people in China with realistic and scientific attitude.
