Have you read Philip Pullman (His Dark Materials and the good man jesus and the scoundrel christ)? If not I would recommend them for the way in which they discuss religion. I don’t find them blasphemous but I do think they make the point that ‘the Church’ often ends up doing a lot of things that the religion wouldn’t condone. I think it’s important to have an ethico-moral framework and i don’t think that needs religion (Richard Holloway writes well about this) but I think the fact that a lot of excellent people find that framework within a religion is just fine. I haven’t found my science/work to be influenced by religion.
