在整個蘇聯歷史中,東正教基督教各宗派及其團體都受到壓制和迫害,只是隨著時期不同而程度有別。這種迫害有著馬克思列寧主義無神論的治國方針的內因,在這種理論的驅使下,蘇聯政府一直主張對宗教採取控制、打壓甚至消滅的手段。[1]

共產黨員出於消滅宗教的偏執[2][3],蘇聯政府對教堂清真寺猶太教堂進行大量平毀。政府還通過各種手段嘲笑、騷擾和處決宗教領袖,在學校和媒體大量宣傳無神論的聲音,說無神論是社會唯一應當信奉的真理[4][5]

James M. Nelson估計蘇聯的國家無神論政策下被消滅的基督徒大約在一千二百到二千萬之間[6][7][8]。 但是,在相當多的人群當中仍在持續著宗教行為[4],它們不僅存在於私人空間也存在於政府允許的有限公共空間裡,這些公共空間是政府在意識到不可能根除宗教,強行蠻幹只會惹來無窮的文化戰爭後給予的。[2][9]
