崇尚科学、反对迷信是中国共产党的优良传统。新中国成立初期，荡涤旧社会留下的污泥浊水是中国共产党必须完成的历史任务，为此党带领人民开展了破除封建迷信的斗争。在政治层面上，党一方面以强有力的手段取缔反动会道门组织，出台法律法规征收寺庙、教堂的土地，另一方面确立了新中国文化建设的方针政策，改造愚昧、落后的旧文化，发展科学、进步的新文化。在经济层面上，党看到了封建迷信存在的经济根源，领导人民进行了一系列经济斗争，包括限制改造迷信品工商业，引导迷信职业者参与生产，厉行节约避免迷信浪费。在科学宣传上，党针对各个领域内存在的迷信思想进行了广泛的宣传，宣传自然科学知识以打破自然现象迷信，宣传农业科学知识以克服消极天命思想，宣传卫生科学知识以破除重神轻医观念。在社会事业上，党大力发展教育、科技和文艺事业，有效破除了因愚昧、落后和时代原因导致的封建迷信。

在中国共产党的领导下，到20世纪60年代时，新中国已经基本摧毁了反动会道门组织，破除了工农业领域内的封建迷信思想，树立和弘扬了社会文明新风。尽管党在破除封建迷信的过程中存在一些问题，但党在实践中运用的具体策略是符合新中国实际的，是符合广大人民利益的，是被历史证明了的科学的历史经验。通过客观地呈现新中国成立初期中国共产党破除封建迷信的历史实践，可以总结出三条主要经验：第一，宽严并济，始终以说服教育作为破除封建迷信的科学方式；第二，多点发力，针对不同对象的特殊性找准破除封建迷信的着力点；第三，提质增效，通过各种方式增强科学宣传与科学普及工作的有效性。这些经验对新时代治理封建迷信问题具有重要启示。

It is a fine tradition of the CPC to uphold science and oppose superstition. In the early years of the founding of New China, the Communist Party of China had to complete the historical task of cleaning up the sludge left by the old society. Under this historical background, the Party led the people to carry out the practice of opposing feudal superstition from all aspects.At the political level, on the one hand, it banned superstitious sects and secret societies by powerful means and introduced laws and regulations to expropriate the land of temples and churches. On the other hand, it established the policy of cultural construction of new China, transforming the old culture and developing the new culture.At the economic level, the Party saw the economic source of the existence of feudal superstitions and led the people in a series of economic struggles, restricting the transformation of superstitious products and industries, guiding superstitious professionals to participate in production, and practicing strict economy to avoid superstitious waste. In terms of scientific publicity, the Party carried out detailed propaganda for the superstitious thoughts existing in various fields, propagating knowledge of natural science to break the superstition of natural phenomena, knowledge of agricultural science to overcome the negative idea of the mandate of heaven, and knowledge of health science to break the concept of placing god over medicine. In social undertakings, the Party has made great efforts to develop education, science and technology, literature and art, and put an accurate end to feudal superstition caused by ignorance, backwardness and The Times.

Under the leadership of the Party, the People's Republic of China basically destroyed superstitious organizations, abolished feudal superstitions in industry and agriculture, and established and carried forward a new trend of social civilization. However, the Party also has some problems in the process of fighting against feudal superstition. This is because feudal superstition has a long history and tradition in China, which requires a long and repeated struggle, and there are some defects in the early propaganda work of the Party. By objectively presenting the historical practice of the Communist Party of China against feudal superstition in the early days of the founding of New China, we can sum up three main experiences: first, leniency and strictness were combined with economy, and persuasion education was always the main way to oppose feudal superstition; Secondly, more efforts should be made to find out the focus of anti-superstition according to the particularity of different objects; Third, we should improve the quality and efficiency of science publicity and popularization by various means. These experiences have important enlightenment significance for us to deal with feudal superstition today.
