Seriously, this has probably knocked us back a couple of thousand years in science and technology.

Recent wars have involved larger populations and deadlier weapons. It's intellectually dishonest to compare the moralities of wars from different eras by casuality numbers. It would be like saying a disease that killed 10/50 million is worse than a disease that killed 4/5 million.

Also, I personally have doubts religion has caused many wars (there's always a political reason), but where religion comes into it is whipping up frenzied and unquestioning support for these wars. The crusades would naver have happened if the Pope hadn't influenced a heavily religious population to do so.
