good people with added religion can commit acts of heinous atrocity.
It doesnt have to be religion, the same can be true of any 'authority' were the responsibilty for peoples actions has been removed and replaced with whatever the authority is.
theres a famous experiment with college kids playing the role of jail guards to other college kids that shows it well, (cant remember what its called though).
Whats bad about getting authority from religion though is religions can be made to mean almost anything and used to justify almost anything.
This is true for all the abrahamic religions, its why devout people fly planes into buildings and the hilsboro church pickett soldiers funnerals.
Not sure about the other religions I dont know enough to comment but would guess its similar.
