There is the danger of believing and acting upon things which are not
true but what others have told you to be true. 

If you refuse to eat meat on Friday or won't eat pork at all because
you think that that is what your god wants, then you are only hurting
yourself, although you may be denying your immediate family their
nutritional needs. 

If, however, you refuse to get an abortion or allow someone else to get
one on religious grounds, you may be doing great harm to yourself,
another person, or the unwanted child.

If you happen to be president of a world power and invade another
country "because god told me to" with the subsequent loss of life of
hundreds of thousands of innocent people, the expenditure of trillions
of dollars, and the destruction of a vibrant society, then you are evil
incarnate and a danger to civilization as we know it.
