The heart of the answer to the original question lies in the answer to the question "why is there religion"? You're over thinking this if you think there is a logical explanation for why religion should apply to politics. The real question is what does religion apply to? Religion may have a place in the intra-personal and the trans-personal, but it takes fundamentalism to bring it into the inter-personal.
