These are just examples of the type of things that people can do in the
name of religion that are counter-productive, either to themselves or
to others. I have a hard time understanding how otherwise intelligent
people can act according to religious tenants and not in their own best
interests.

Not eating pork or meat on Fridays are trivial examples of
religious-based behavior. Avoiding birth control and abortions are much
more serious.
