That's not true. The Russian Orthodox Church had a significant number of its (culturally and artistically significant) buildings tore down and a significant amount of bishops and priests killed.
The bishops and priests that were killed were killed because they were against the state, not because they were practicing religion. Stalin, like Mao with Buddhism, used the Orthodox Church to wield power.
