According to the [[University of Cambridge]], historically, the "most notable spread of atheism was achieved through the success of the 1917 [[Russian Revolution]], which brought the [[Marxism-Leninism|Marxist-Leninists]] to power."<ref name="Marxism-Leninism">{{cite web|url=http://web.archive.org/web/20130728215151/http://www.investigatingatheism.info/marxism.html|title=Investigating atheism: Marxism|publisher = [[University of Cambridge]]|quote=The most notable spread of atheism was achieved through the success of the 1917 Russian Revolution, which brought the Marxist-Leninists to power. For the first time in history, atheism thus became the official ideology of a state.|year=2008|accessdate=July 17, 2014}}</ref>
The article ''After [[Communism]]'s Collapse: Creation in the Crimea'' declares concerning atheology and the former [[Soviet Union]]:
{{Cquote|Sergei Golovin has a Master's degree in geophysics, and lives in the Crimea region, Ukraine, where he heads a [[Creationism|creation ministry]], the Christian Center for Science and Apologetics.
Sergei spoke of the vast cultural and philosophical differences between people in the former [[Soviet Union|USSR]] and the [[Western World|West]]. 'Three generations of communist "atheology" has trained people not to search for a logical answer,' he said. 'The logical contradictions in communist ideology were carefully explained away as just the "dialectics of history". So even if they see contradictions in parts of [[evolution]] theory, many still just accept it.'<ref>[http://www.creationism.org/crimea/engl/testimony.htm ''After Communism's Collapse: Creation in the Crimea''], Creationism.com</ref>}}
