Yes, many or most religions can be a cause of fanaticism, but I think that the crimes of humanity here are due to people who will likely find any reason to do those crimes anyway. I think the root cause here is actually a genetic error or something in our primal nature that causes us to act this way, religion just happens to be the perfect excuse.
