In the end you could ask where the line should be drawn between a political party and a religion, as orginised religion was invented to bring governance through the fear of god when we had simple and very uneducated societies and is used now as a way to impose the will of the few on the many.
Belief in a higher power and religion are often confused, but as the quote from The big bang theories Amy goes roughly "I don't object to the concept of a deity, but I'm baffled by the notion of one that takes attendance"
