The reason for this is not only the unconditional adoption of the Marxist ideal of atheism, but primarily a struggle of powers. In the communist era, Religion was perceived as a disturbing factor regarding the political system and the communist government felt questioned and weakened by the influence and authority of the ecclesial institution. Hence, one of the main aims was to weaken and minimize the churches' impact on society. However, there are two questions that arise within the analysis of the relationship between church and state during the communist era.

Was the relationship between the state and the Romanian Orthodox Church as the national church similar to the relation between the state and smaller
