I think that people do sometimes underestimate the valuable ethical effects of religious institutions in society. So I will give you that.
But I disagree in general with that you are saying because religion, individualism, and other issues you talk about are not actually bound together the way that you claim.
For example, there are plenty of people who are strongly individualistic in their worldview but also highly religious.
And there are secular worldviews that de-emphasize individualism or include strong community-oriented morals.
Also you try to pin this on technology, but actually technocratic thought is very popular and is a very socialist ideology (in fact I think too much so, but that is a different question).
