It affects society in both positive and negative ways.
Positive: The arts and sciences flourish, and discoveries are made. Civil rights tend to advance.
Negative: Society becomes a hostile place for people of faith. People of faith have to put up with constant pressure to practice things that they find immoral or offensive. If a woman doesn't believe in sex outside of certain parameters such as marriage or certain types of partners, then she will feel marginalized if people outside those parameters approach her for sex. People are allowed to do more and more self-destructive behaviors, and they can pollute Mass Communication with pornography and filth. Laws may increase because without a viable faith system to control the people, the government has to do so even more. Suicides may increase because people feel more freedom to do things that cause inner guilt, and because they lack a faith system to give them hope.
