90% of the world believing is not a problem, but religion entering the realm of politics is. religion is not the same as believing in god. you can deny religious views and still believe in a god i think.
a misconception is to think that religion created morals, i think the codification of morals in the bible has played a big role in history, but morals exist within people regardless of being religious; it is the empathic ability that everyone posesses.
2: but moral has to come from people themselves rather than to be dictated from above, religion is not the only institution that produces a moral consciousness.
