Religion has Brought on most of the Wars in this world...
Is that a subjective guess, or do you have a stat to reference?
The desire for power, wealth and territory has quite a share of wars, too. Ask Kuwait.
Religion ......still leads people to hate others outside there own faith
Your opinion, not a fact. Christians don't hate other religions, they just think they're going to hell. Why would Christians make an effort to "save" the ones they hate?
The good from Religion, IMO:
Promotes helping others rather than selfishness.
Promotes good value system. Without trust and honesty in a majority, democracy would collapse. (ponder this: if Mexico is Catholic and full of corruption, are the corrupt ones religious or not?)
