No religion ever "Started a War," just as none (as far as I know!) have ever 'Ended a War."
If it is possible to 'insult a religion,' then it must be possible to pleasure it or to tickle its ego.
The implication of being able to 'insult a religion' is that faiths, creeds, ideas, ideologies, beliefs etc have emotions...!
Can you insult Love...? Love is not demonstrable. It's an emotion, a disease, a theory ...depending on who and where you happen to be whatever stage of your life, and may well be an 'emotional experience' you have experienced and decided to label ’Love.’
These are none demonstrable intangibles, they are not capable - no more that a month or a day or your shirt or underwear - of being insulted.
However, I know not to try and demonstrate my argument in certain quarters because there are those members of the Jury who'd love to be Judge, Jailer and the Executioner too.
