It’s kind of been inevitable that the religious will have been involved in historical social movements, because almost every fucker was religious.

Clearly a religion doesn’t have to be true to be part of effecting change, nor is there anything magically special about a religion's ability to achieve things; but again, historically religions were probably the biggest and best organised institutions, I guess.
