>>As far as I know, China is the only nation in the world ever to have enshrined atheism as a special belief system under law and given special rights to atheists. <<

I think France did this in the 1790's, actually.

And now I have learned something new, today.

Apparently the modern Chinese national constitution does not specifically enshrine Atheism. However, it enshrines the Communist party as the official state party, and the party's constitution enshrines Atheism as a required belief for all members.
