It is not a virtue to have faith in god, when this God threatens punishment for disbelief and promises reward for belief.  It's not a virtue when intolerance is often--if not always--attached.  Faith in God is not virtuous.  It's self serving. It's the opposite of virtuous.
The whole tone of Church teaching in regard to woman is, to the last degree, contemptuous and degrading. - Elizabeth Cady Stanton
