The problem with religions in general is fatalism. The belief that inconvenient things you don't like are somehow related to 'karma' (or 'sin' in other religions), that it's always related to people in the past, and that you just need to live with that and accept the stones thrown at you.
There is no guarantee that ''the universe'' is run on morality, nor that it's ''made'' by a grand tool maker who also happens to be able to write, talk, and look like a human being. If spiders could talk, reason and had hands how would their god(s) look you think? What would the message then be?
The real power (although less interesting to our imagination) comes from our human sense of justice. We have to be the guides of our own destiny.
