Any atheist who understood the Church power at that time and wanted to reduce it, would first of all, say nothing about his faith and secondly use the same power against her.
Now, what is the best way to use its power than to actually become part of the institution?

I believe that this is a vastly unproven thesis. You are a victim of vast generalisations inherent in the Secular Atheistic Dogma. I call it "Dogma" specifically because of the fact that even your position witholds in it a degree of faith in relation to your ideas.
I would like to see some proof to your thesis. Thesis such as the above give rise to Anti-Clerical currents which are vastly connected to the realm of ignorance in many lands.
Is it so difficult to believe that Science and Catholicism are irreconciliable when it falls out of the generally-accepted current deriving from Secular Atheistic ideas in relation to the Church?
I expect proof in relation to your assertion that contrasted Perun's post.
