I’m strongly opposed to religion, but “never done anything good in history” would be a really dumb statement to make about the church (which church is undefined in your post but I’m guessing you mean Catholic). No matter who your “worst person in history” is, they did at least a few good things. Shit even Diaper Don made it easier for deaf people to get heading aids. Same goes for big groups of people.Â
It’s the net value that matters.Â

The Catholic church is also the largest non-state provider of healthcare and education in the world. More importantly, it also is the leading provider of defense against vampire attacks.

The church is way too broad of a term. Your local priest that feeds the homeless still is part of the church

It’s so fun to run into kid’s who’re too young to know there was a Pokemon Satanic panic , because they think you’re talking bullshit, it sounds like bullshit, but it’s 100% real.

I don’t think anyone argues that a church has never done anything good. The argument is that on average organized religions are outdated and rather harmful at this age.
On the flip side, it looks like humans will always find something to believe in regardless if it involves celestial entities or not.

But have you considered that without religion the only thing to fight about would have been resources, geography, and cultural differences, and therefore there would be no war?

Largest charitable organization in the world. Immoral actions within the Church have been the exception rather than the rule.

Also, feeding the poor or something, idk.
That is why John Paul the Second is the GOAT
