I think the moral corruption described in the article has less to do with religion and more to do with a "breaking free" of religion. Many in the US will profess a belief in God, but sometimes it's hard to believe that that's truly the case. Less to do with God and more to do with pushing the envelope beyond what the constraints of religion allow. You see it in political revolutions sometimes, the people break free and go to far an anarchy follows. It's the desire for rebellion. Kids do it all the time. But that's just my own personal observations.
Just because I believe in God doesn't mean I don't care about how the universe works. A computer was built by someone who knew how to make it work and I accept that on face value, but I still like to get inside it and see how the part interact with each other and what processes cause them to work.

Sometimes you get the scorpion.
