"Faith and reason are the shoes on your feet. You can travel further with both instead of just one."
Religious faith is probably that sort of high-heel shoes that shine prettily but make it harder to go anywhere, not easier. Helping you go anywhere was never their point.
Making you look (or feel) good perhaps, or merely serving the desires of their marketers, yes. But utility is not their purpose.
