Let's see: Religion demands that we suspend critical thinking and objective analysis in lieu of simply accepting baseless "belief" in what amounts to little more than fairy tales and atheists are the ignorant and deluded ones? What bullshit. I mean, that's like a bull shitting, wiping his ass with a sheep, and shitting again.
The thing is, though, there is definitely a value in maintaining and promoting bullshit beliefs in certain segments of our society. How else would we convince people to give their lives in wars that serve no purpose other than to inflate the value of my mutual fund portfolio? Let their imaginary gods bless them. Cha-ching!!! Got your money, suckers!
