Religious ecstasy has inspired great art, profound ideas, innumerable acts of kindness. Religion has also been a mask for brutal acts of terror, and churches (or Churches) have bolstered entire repressive governments [talkin' Barcelona blues; the Fascists were backed by the Church from the get-go].
Vote your conscience. Put some thought into it. Pray about it if that's your thing. Don't forget your history.
