Naked faith is what religious enterprise was always about, until science became the preeminent system of natural verisimilitude, tempting the faithful to employ its wares in the practice of preternatural belief.

Throughout recorded time, and probably since the end of the Neolithic Age, there have been three kinds of people in the world, the High, the Middle, and the Low. They have been subdivided in many ways, they have borne countless different names, and their relative numbers, as well as their attitude towards one another, have varied from age to age: but the essential structure of society has never altered. Even after enormous upheavals and seemingly irrevocable changes, the same pattern has always reasserted itself, just as a gyroscope will always return to equilibrium, however far it is pushed one way or the other.
The aims of these three groups are entirely irreconcilable. The aim of the High is to remain where they are. The aim of the Middle is to change places with the High. The aim of the Low, when they have an aim -- for it is an abiding characteristic of the Low that they are too much crushed by drudgery to be more than intermittently conscious of anything outside their daily lives -- is to abolish all distinctions and create a society in which all men shall be equal. Thus throughout history a struggle which is the same in its main outlines recurs over and over again. For long periods the High seem to be securely in power, but sooner or later there always comes a moment when they lose either their belief in themselves or their capacity to govern efficiently, or both. They are then overthrown by the Middle, who enlist the Low on their side by pretending to them that they are fighting for liberty and justice. As soon as they have reached their objective, the Middle thrust the Low back into their old position of servitude, and themselves become the High. Presently a new Middle group splits off from one of the other groups, or from both of them, and the struggle begins over again. Of the three groups, only the Low are never even temporarily successful in achieving their aims. It would be an exaggeration to say that throughout history there has been no progress of a material kind. Even today, in a period of decline, the average human being is physically better off than he was a few centuries ago. But no advance in wealth, no softening of manners, no reform or revolution has ever brought human equality a millimetre nearer. From the point of view of the Low, no historic change has ever meant much more than a change in the name of their masters.
"It is sad that while science moves ahead in exciting new areas of research, fine-tuning our knowledge of how life originated and evolved, creationists remain mired in medieval debates about angels on the head of a pin and animals in the belly of an Ark." (Why People Believe Weird Things, (p. 141) -Michael Shermer

With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

"The world is so exquisite, with so much love and moral depth, that there is no reason to deceive ourselves with pretty stories for
which there's little good evidence. Far better, it seems to me, in our
vulnerability, is to look Death in the eye and to be grateful every
day for the brief but magnificent opportunity that life provides." -

"A human being is part of the whole, called by us 'Universe'; a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest--a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compasion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to achieve this completely but striving for such achievement is, in itself, a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security." (as quoted in Quantum Reality, Beyond the New Physics, p. 250) -Albert Einstein
Who I'd like to meet: Somebody once observed to the eminent philosopher Wittgenstein
how stupid medieval Europeans living before the time of
Copernicus must have been that they could have looked at the sky
and thought the sun was circling the earth. Surely a modicum of
astronomical good sense would have told them that the reverse
was true. Wittgenstein is said to have replied: "I agree. But I
wonder what it would have looked like if the sun had been circling
the earth" The point is that it would look exactly the same. When
we observe nature we see what we want to see, according to what
we believe we know about it at the time. Nature is disordered,
powerful and chaotic, and throught fear of the chaos we impose
system on it. We abhore complexity, and seek to simplify things
whenever we can by whatever means we have at hand. We need
to have an overall explenation of what the universe is and how it
functions. In order to achieve this overall view we develop
explanatory theories which will give structure to natural
phenomena: we classify nature into a coherent system which
appears to do what we say it does... - James Burke "The Day The Universe Changed"
