Religion is a way of keeping people in order. Even if it is not real, what do we lose by forcing religion on a society? Think logically. It is a way of structuring our thinking in terms of a single thing (God) that relieves stress.
It's not even so much about the spiritual aspect, it's more about the fact that non-religious societies tend to either descend into complete degeneration (what the West is currently experiencing) or power-hungry totalitarian secular regimes take control (the Soviet Union, China, etc.) and citizens' lives deteriorate to unimaginable degrees.
It is a good way to control the masses, but the concept of a policing god is not real.
