..I believe that people are intrinsically good, but there are ‘bad’ people, of course... there is good and bad in most things but if there wasn’t so much good, far more than there is 'bad or evil’ then the world would be a much worse place than it is..so far as religion goes, I’m not personally religious through choice but I was brought up in a faith.. and I know many, many ‘good christian’ people...people whose faith makes them better people and gives them strength to cope with what they need to when life sucks a bit and also gives them the understanding of compassion for others and less self absorbed... so for some people, many people I would say that religion is good and positive...we all need something to ‘believe in’ , whether it be our families, friends, faith etc....there are of course extremists and those extremists are what causes ‘the bad/evil etc’ not the religion itself imo....
..a quote I love is from a Dali Lama.... “My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.”...
