Do Communism and atheism go hand-to-hand?

Yes, since Communism demands that the government be the only authority in your life, in other words that the government be your only God.

Yes, they certainly do.

Nope         

Not really. All atheists I know are capitalists or socialists. 

I am a republican, and an atheist. I don't see what one has to do with the other.

"hand-IN-hand" --- no

No.  My conservative father is atheist, and I'm a Communist Christian.

Since every communist i ever met is also a atheist and a Democrat, i would guess all thee go hand in hand

only to the uninformed and unwashed........

Successful communes are often religious
