My Mischief Proof Religion
One of Richard Dawkins’ big beefs with religion, as he writes in the “God Delusion”, is that it is responsible for so much mischief and destruction. I reckon, however, that my particular religious beliefs are utterly harmless and unobjectionable on that account. Love God and love your neighbor. What mischief could come of that? Some might argue that such a belief might lead me to neglect my own comfort and well being for others. Those people don’t know me very well.

What always gets me about these kinds of charges against "religion" is that it's never noted that false religions or false applications of true religion are the problems, not Christianity itself.
