Just remember that you cannot run a successful religion on RP alone. It may last for a short while, but it will eventually dry up and blow away as people lose interest. In order for a religion to maintain people's interests in the long run, it has to get involved somehow in politics and control. That's pretty much the hook you need to get people interested, and keep them interested. If you just due the whole "We're not interested in politics" thing, you'll end up a bland, pointless bunch of disinterested members.
