Religion is the number one reason for wars throughout the history of mankind..
I would of thought it was for land and resources with Religion only used to justify taking it by force.

Example: Caveman wants other Caveman's land, woman, gold. So he says if it rains this winter the Spirits agree with me.

Example: Sacking of Constantinople would of been proof that they(Crusaders) weren't there soley for religion.
