Not only the literalist (fundamentalist) can be a danger to the society. According to Richard Dawkins in his recent book The God Delusion, even the moderates can cause harm to the society:

In January 2006 I presented a two-part television documentary on British television (Channel Four) called Root of All Evil? From the start, I didnt like the title. Religion is not the root of all evil, for no one thing is the root of all anything. But I was delighted with the advertisement that Channel Four put in the national newspapers. It was a picture of the Manhattan skyline with the caption Imagine a world without religion. What was the connection? The twin towers of the World Trade Centre were conspicuously present.
