On one hand, if there were no organised religions, then bad things would not be done in the name of God. On the other hand, there exists those people that want to do bad things, and use religions as justification.

Bad people will always find some justification - religion, science, socialism, democracy, secularism, law and order, race, economy - whatever has the authority in a given time.
But the cold cruel fact is that the largest number of murders in history was committed by the militant secularists/atheists. Nobody came near!

People will always do the latter, organized religion or not.
