Is misotheism essential for a genuine communist? (reddthat.com)

I was wondering, since religions are fundamentally social structures built to set hierarchies and justify inequality, and all religious dogma and theology has failed to disprove the null hypothesis of atheism, does it hamper a comrade's integrity if she is conflicted in shedding off her circumstantial religion?

What do you guys think?

They didn't call atheism a religion though. They pointed out--correctly, in my opinion--that atheism is compatible with most religions, since the majority of them put primacy on religious practice rather than religious belief.
