No, you absolutely would have; the perspectives and beliefs that are elevated in society aren't selected at random but by what reinforces existing power structures. If it didnt benefit Raytheon, apocalyptic cultists would just be more weirdos on the street, not elected congressmen. The crusades were ultimately about seizing on a weakened Ottoman Empire to conquer nearby lands and reinforce the power of the church within Europe. If they didnt have god as a justification, they would have used a different one.
