People’s delusions, ideas, and creeds themselves have no influence on reality, which is in line with the CANI's IMPERATIVE of WORLDVIEW. So they cannot be injurious to the public, provided that they don't lead to indoctrination, dominance, or subordination of others to meet own egoistic needs.
Unfortunately, religious ideas have become a diabolic tool to control and use people by both authorities and clergy. Religions, particularly organized ones, including Christianity and Islam, have been shown to be hazardous, harmful, and often deadly for humans. Directly or indirectly religions have been the cause of conflicts often leading to wars in human history and they're responsible for the death of hundreds of millions of people around the world. Religion drives apart people of opposite views, inspires mutual loathing and hatred, and is regarded as a threat to human rights.
So,
THE ESSENCE OF THE SOCIAL CONFLICT INSPIRED RELIGIOUSLY DOESN'T ARISE FROM THE SUBSTANTIVE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PROFESSED IDEAS (IN THE CASE OF RELIGION AND SCIENCE – FROM DISTINCT MAGISTERIA OF KNOWLEDGE, AS GOULD HAS TRIED PERSISTENTLY TO CONVINCE OTHERS IN HIS NOMA), BUT FROM IMPROPER FUNCTIONING OF THE RELIGION, ITS ROLE, AND POSITION IN SOCIETY.
Tolerance of other people’s views and freedom of choice own worldview, including religious beliefs, justifies the correctness of the principle, that:
GOD EXISTS FOR BELIEVERS AND DOESN’T EXIST FOR NON-BELIEVERS
This principle, based on the CANI's Imperative of Worldview (The CANI's Theorem), has been derived from the CANI's Imperative of Independent Beings (CANI's Principle of Coexistence of Independent Beings), and however seemingly contradictory, is also in line with the Aristotle's Principle of Non-contradiction.

There is always a political hand in the so-called religious conflicts and hatreds. The question should always be 'Who is behind'?
Ref. to post by Gabriel Akimana
The alliance (marriage) of the altar with the throne had been known for centuries. Who, or rather what plays the main violin in this bloody marriage? The answer, to my opinion, is the only one - money and power, i.e. the superior values that govern the behavior of the allied members of this devilish, dammed union.
