Any Ideology or a Religion is a MODEL for behavior / action with a sort of goal/s.
Regarding Models, following points are generally true ...
a) All Models are wrong
b) Some models are useful
c) Some Models are Gorgeous !! (Playboy ...)
Religion falls in the (b) category .... Wrong & Useful, at least to many people. Hence it continues.
My POV : Let it continue for the believers ... but the believers should not tell others that others should accept the Model as FACT or TRUTH.

That pretty much provides the beginning of a coherent account why Christianity´s unprecedented development in key areas as University-based society has been encapsulated in modern "secular culture." People have embraced it because it was exerted powerfully in colonialism that spread the tools of education and scientific philosophy. The establishment of the United Nations and human rights followed the University-based educational model in terms of natural rights and the Freedoms, including religion. All that has allowed for a dynamic that requires that individuals and groups resolve the tensions that have been created.
The fact that Gandhi has appeared as a strikingly impressive role model of interfaith practice with Christian integrity at its highest levels, with Kasturbai, is a prime example to address the toxic scientific materialism and secular humanism whose major attributes are anti-religious bigotry, confusion of Christian profiteering-funded fundamentalism, and failure to address the basic materialistic threats of human rights violations and industrial unsustainability. Establishing the scientific indicators of spiritual-religious practice in meditation and prayer for one is now a possibility for the bewildered in the middle, and the relevance of empirical philosophy beyond "science," i.e. scientific philosophy.
"All models are wrong" contains its own self-negation, BTW. The model that is seems highly or possibly totally true is the one I´m apparently innovating by name, Multidisciplinary Philosophy. It is a form that includes critical theory, but doesn´t need to mention it, scientific philosophy but understands empirical philosophy as premise, and so on.
