I have no beef with some of Harris's criticisms against organized religious groups. My issue is with his arguments against theism in general.
You have a belief that 2+2=5 because the same science demonstrates that you have a cognizant rational mind which employs logic (sometimes in your case). And this is something that chance + necessity does not produce. Rather designing intelligence produces this. Biogenesis - life comes from life.
As for Jesus's return: we can be confident of Biblical doctrines because there is sound historical evidence which supports that Jesus is who he said he was and that the tomb was empty. So my "religious belief" is based ultimately on sound historical evidence.
