What is the purpose of religion?

I understand religious institutions can’t affect political decisions. Yet, in a real sense, they should be able to influence people to create the much needed positive change…. since they have the power to influence the minds of the people to believe whatever they teach.
Therefore I would like to start with the question:
What has been the positive influence of religion since it washed up on our shores? Has it made Africa better or is the outcome in reverse. Has religion actually helped to build better self sustaining homes or has it built a dependent family and nation?????
