Okay, you want some examples of people causing harm through religion:
1) Indoctrinating young minds before the age of reason, especially with such vile concepts as "hell".
2) Bigotry and social exclusion due to dogma.
3) General divisiveness, up to and including wars over religious differences.
4) Favourable treatment for religious institutions.
5) Atheists being ostracised or even killed in some countries just for being atheists.
6) Dogmatic mindsets and stories which cause barriers to learning.
7) Trying to get theology taught in science classes.
That's enough for now I think.
