The question poses a problem. You said "good", which implies a moral view that we share without stating what that is. Altruism then gets inserted and off we go. Because you are swimming in the waters of a Judeo/Christian worldview from centuries of moral development under their influence you can assume a certain morality is shared. in the past it was the right of Kings to do as they pleased because it was believed that they were appointed by God. Christianity came along and inserted a virus into the system, it stated that all men are equal in the eyes of God.
We can also go back further to the Mosaic idea of "Eye for an Eye" which is interpreted as retribution, but instead it put limits on Justice. A rich man does not get to take the life of a poor man because the poor man harmed his donkey.
So to the question of "has religion done any good?"
Your idea of good came from religion.
