The difference is that the social structure which promotes the value system is valuable in and of itself (this said as someone who grew up religious but is not anymore). A lot of people can't "walk the path" without others to walk with them.
The only issue is that sometimes that social structure has downsides like occasionally becoming politically charged, self-serving or abusive.
