Well, kind of.

The protection of religious rights was the immediate cause. But religious rights are easily ignored if there's no power at stake. The war wouldn't have happened if the Ottoman Empire weren't collapsing and Western European powers hated the idea of Russia gaining territory. 

But, OK. Let's pretend the Crimean War was about religion. Does this mean that WWI was the first not to be religiously based? Because I think you're not going to be able to support that.
