Organized Religion: does it do more Good or Bad?

I'm talking about the total effect, throughout all history.

Vinuneuro:

I couldn't answer your poll because the question from my vantage point is too broad. I guess the first thought that popped into my head is that there are over 10.000 religions and they may or may not be organized. So the question in my mind is "organized to do what?". Then perhaps we can sift through their organized effort and render some sort of observation.

I agree with the above statement, and it would depend on what sect etc, I think it can be a waste if used for judgement etc

I may be mistaken but a sect is generally a small religious or political group that has broken off from a larger group. I believe Vinuneuro may have the mainstream recognized religions in mind for this discussion.

Actually religious judgement may not be all bad as it gives you a look at what others are doing based on a set of standards. The yardstick for judgement may be the bigger issue because everyone has their own way of making the judgement rather than a set standards that should be used.
