Sadly, though, the Religons at the moment seem to be the blocks on any advancement.
The ones that get the most airplay, at least. The progressive churches typically aren't the ones grabbing headlines, waving placards and generally making a stink about how this, that and the other thing is going to turn out children into Satan-worshippers.

The Jesuit order somehow manages to combing faith and the pursuit of knowledge without the universe exploding at the contradiction. It took me a while to realise this, though.
