AnswerThe religion of people like Pythagorus has advanced our understanding of mathematics. Pythagorus believed that a perfect knowledge of mathematics would lead to a perfect knowledge of the gods. Other religions have contributed negatively, through religious wars, terrorism, persecutions and belligerent proselytising, the effects of which are still being felt up to the present day.

Overall, the contribution of religion to modern society has been mixed, with some good and some bad.
