Organized religions are already big power 'centrals'. If organized religions were to disappear, there would be no centralized power. And everyone would be just as free to believe whatever they want as they are now.
that's so morally unoffensive that the concept of morality would be darn near vacant
Religions have nothing to do with morals. People don't get morals from religion. I'll grant you that in ancients time religion, in particular through their "holy books", did serve a purpose when there was basically no social cohesion or law. That is not the case anymore.
