Objectively, it absolutely does much of the time. It depends on the religion and the group. No denying there's some toxic religion around.
Many people who are not part of religion or have had a bad experience go on a confirmation bias trip and add up all the negatives. But there's too much evidence to the contrary that groups that get it right can be incredible human beings, and it's also been my experience all of the world.
