Religion is just too good of a tool to control people, that is what it is. Its like you have to lie to people to get their attention.
It's not so much about believing in "God", rather, believing in a "Higher Power". This could be anything. Just believing in something larger than yourself. I can see how this is an important attribute when forming a "Brotherhood". If each brother thought they were the center of the universe... I think they'd have a difficult time keeping order.
