Cool so that's settled, the war on terror is at least partly caused on one side by religion. Want to move on to the civil war? Does the churchs endorsment of slavery have and causal relationship to it?

Or if you want, The British civil war/American revolution was cleary fought under the banner of God. And since it was a just war, many where swayed to the revolutionist side, without being able to affilliate with religion the revolution would not have succeded.

They are much more likely motivated by their political beliefs than their religious beliefs. Religion is usually an excuse to rile up the masses to support their cause, that's all.

The people in the military are generally much too professional to be motivated by their religious beliefs in fighting this war. I know that might surprise you, but from my experience it is absolutley true. We have enough motivating factors to fight on.

Are you in the military?

False. The war was almost solely fought on economic and political reasons (like self-government). Look at almost any dogma of the day and it is not religious appeals made by the revolutionariues, but rather economic appeals.

HOw does this

" Religion is usually an excuse to rile up the masses to support their cause, that's all."

and

"The people in the military are generally much too professional to be motivated by their religious beliefs in fighting this war. I know that might surprise you, but from my experience it is absolutley true. We have enough motivating factors to fight on. "

work. Religion is used to rile up the mases on thier side, but on our side we are very professional? This amounts to nothing more than chauvinism.
