The argument that religious beliefs are good for society is IMO very week. I see very little correlation between safe, prosperous, high-trust societies and religious beliefs.

What I see is religion beeing used as an effective excuses to do what you would have otherwise already done, bee it good and bad.

The issues with that is of course that we often exempt religious beliefs from the scrutiny and demands we place on other beliefs. Both demands from within and for each others.
