Simply historically speaking, organized religion has so manipulated and abused society's faith in the ever-growing numbers of theories of divinity that, personally, I'm surprised that 'God' still plays as dominating a roll in everyday life (regardless of whether you believe in Him or not) as He does. I'm an athiest because I understand the utter power theism has over many people and, frankly, how evil irresponsible people act under the influence of it. When religion stops hurting and controlling, I might regain faith in it.
