Too often it has just been abused and used as justification subjugate and molest those without. To that end, the benefits don't outweigh the cost. The same 'positive impact' could be accomplished through other means.
But none of that is the purpose for religion. Religion is an attempt to explain God. Not every religion in history revolves around doing good in the name of God(s).
