Fascism and authoritarianism are religious dogma, they just not always align with an already existing religion, which gives raise to things like the English King's religion, the Mao's, USSR, NK... arguably the Catholic... or older ones like the god-pharaohs. All of which came into power by banning other religions.
PS: we've just witnessed another religious schism the other week, when the Ukrainian Orthodox church decided to celebrate Christmas on Dec 25, instead of with the Russian Orthodox church.
