There are clear benefits to organized social stuff. For whatever reason, religions appear to be more effective at this than secular groups. One of the more "fun" theories I've seen is that this is because religious beliefs are often nonsensical and costly.
For large scale events, I'm not convinced that nations that tried to do away with organized religion got better outcomes for it.
