First, being religious doesn't necessarily mean you have a fervent faith. Second, just because the relationship *may* work one direction (religious people are nutcases), that doesn't mean it works the other (nutcases are religious).

Whether you believe that you have ghosts in your house or a god or Martians looking down on your house, it's all the same. |
