Just FYI that faith is actually what saved the Imperium CLR. Strong Faith is onwe of the most potent defenses against corruption by Chaos. Also, it would not have been so bad if the Ecclesiarchy was founded by the best religious faction from the get go. The Temple of the Saviour Emperor was the basis of the Ecclesiarchy, and they were known for their awful levels of corruption. Later on the Confederation of Light deposed them, and did a reformation of the Ecclesiarchy. However by then the damage had been done.
