All humans are born as Atheist (person who do not belive in god), it is society which makes some become Theist (person who belive in god or gods). Making societies democratic removes power from religion, and will fragment larger groups by presenting the many alternatives which are normal in a democracy. At first democracy will be slow - only taking a few members from the larger groups, but this repeats/continues over time, and at some point democracy becomes stable, and the larger groups can not attack all the new small groups, because they will become disliked.

Look at religion in the western democratic world - the big religions are failing, because they are no longer needed. Babies born today can remain Atheists, and later in life they can make their own choice if they want to belive in God(s) or not, and no matter their choice, then they will still be equal.
