One more reason to shitcan blind faith -- you remove a central tool politicians use to move the unwashed masses.
Stripped of emotional appeals to faith, many political initiatives would die a deserved death. They are kept on life-support by pleadings directed at uneducated believers susceptible to religious arguments.
Religion poisons everything. Repent of your blind faith already, and enter the thinking world.
