Is religion still relevant in modern society?

That's neglecting the huge corruption that existed in Eastern Europe, especially the Balkan region, way before Communism. You'll actually find that less religious states (e.g. the Scandinavian ones) are also less corrupt than more religious ones (e.g. Greece, Turkey, Romania).

Doesn't surprise me in the least. I have always thought that nothing good ever came out of Romania.

Ouch. Well, for sure nothing that ever came out of Romania can compare to a certain moustached dictator.

Which one? Now that I think about it, every dictator from wwii era came out of strong religious countries. Russia (Orthodox church), German Catholicism/Christianity, Italy and the Vatican (which actually supported the Reich).

Also they all had mustaches.

This actually had nothing to do with religion. Rol was insulting my country (and actualyl trying to insult me with that), and I just said that at least my country isn't known for producing the person who is probably the most despised human being ever.
