So then, what's the point of organized religion anymore?
These countries, and many more, are going the opposite ways of their respective religions. USA is a great warring country with the most lethal weapons ever devised, yet they claim to follow "God." India is the most corrupt country with terrible abuses of all kinds. China is destroying their land in order to become an economic powerhouse.
So is religion just a way to spend an hour or two a week to feel good about oneself?
Obviously the point of organized religion is to keep all that stuff from happening. As you said, if everyone actually followed their respective religions everything would be A-OK. USA would be more peaceful if it actually followed christianity, India would be less corrupt if it actually followed Hinduism, and China would be more respectful of the environment if it adhered to Taoism. Apparently the problem isn't the fact that religion isn't relevant, but that it isn't being followed.
Being an atheist, I'm of the mind that we should create a new secular philosophy that accomplishes the same goals. If everyone wanted to simply start practicing what they preached that would be fine by me too, although I can see potential problems arising from following the less admirable aspects of each of those religions. I know with christianity you get a lot of happy peace talk, but you also get slavery, misogyny, child sacrifice, and violence. I assume it would be the same with the other religions as well. Maybe we should be happy with what we have.
