My immediate thought is of the official state homophobia (as in "homosexuality is a perversion found only in the decadent West" rhetoric) found in the USSR and its client states. Of course, I also regard the USSR's official atheism to be a prime example of atheism practised as an organised religion, complete with the usual behaviour patterns of an aggressively hegemonising form of organised religion.
