Hello fellow atheist

I am a 17 year old Student and English is my second foreign language so sorry for any errors

Albania(Europe,Western Balkans) the country i come from was during Stalinist times the only officially ''atheist country'' in the world.Religion was brutally persecuted and religious people where imprisoned, publicly humiliated or even killed in very brutal ways.The Stalinists where so efficient in destroying religion in Albania that that currently about 70% of Albanians don't practice any form of religion(even higher in the capital city where I live).For example my whole extended family is non-religious(grandparents on both sides are atheist)  and I personally don't have anybody that is religious in among my friends.I had never even had actual contact with religion until 3 years ago(Internet).One thing is for sure though that if it wasn't for the ''state atheism'' my family and myself would have not been atheist (I say this as an anti-communist).

The question is did the end justify the mean ?????
