It is very unfortunate that religion associated itself with miracles a lot, which are perfectly incompatible with science.
It turns out to be pretty hard to come up with a religion that has your listed advantages, and which does not break down under the critical views of science. Ironically, the “God” concept is in the clear, but the bible needs a serious overhaul to be trustworthy again.

And yet, there are religious scientists. Just like you can separate your work and personal life, you can separate your religious/spiritual/mental beliefs from your rest of self. You don't need to "prove" the religion to be true for it to be useful.
You know what they say about models and their correctness?
