In 2016, the ''International Business Times'' reported:
 +
{{cquote|A senior Chinese advisor on religious affairs has said the country should promote atheism throughout society, in remarks that appear to reflect a deepening campaign to reinforce traditional Marxist values in China — and could add to concern about official attitudes among believers in the country’s five officially recognized religions.<ref>[http://www.ibtimes.com/senior-chinese-religious-advisor-calls-promotion-atheism-society-2363850 Senior Chinese Religious Advisor Calls For Promotion Of Atheism In Society], ''International Business Times''</ref>}}

In 2014, the ''New American'' website indicated:
 +
{{Cquote|The Communist Party of China (CPC) is letting its members know that the party’s official adherence to [[militant atheism]] has not changed; Party members are not allowed to be Christians, or to hold any other religious beliefs. That is the clear message sent by a top Party official in an editorial published on November 14 in the Global Times, the international version of People’s Daily, the official newspaper and mouthpiece of the CPC.<ref>[https://www.thenewamerican.com/world-news/asia/item/19567-china-s-communist-party-reaffirms-marxism-maoism-atheism China’s Communist Party Reaffirms Marxism, Maoism, Atheism], New American, 2014</ref>}}

According to the [[BBC]]:
 +
{{Cquote|At the end of the Chinese Communist Party's 19th Congress, the new Politburo Standing Committee was revealed: seven middle aged men in dark suits, without a woman to be seen. There has never been a female member of the Standing Committee.
 +
 +
Of the 2,280 delegates at that Congress, fewer than a quarter were women.
 +
 +
That's got some people asking whether the party should take gender equality more seriously. The New York Times wrote of women being "shut out" - but does the Chinese Communist Party have a woman problem?
 +
 +
Of the 89.4 million members of the Chinese Communist Party, just under 23 million are women - that's 26%.
 +
 +
And women make up 24% of China's National Congress - the sprawling national parliament. You don't have to be a Communist Party member to sit on that.<ref>[https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-41652487 Reality Check: Does China's Communist Party have a woman problem?], BBC</ref>}}
