A great many things happened during this period. The reformation was one of them, but I don't see what specifically it did to make the world better.
As for the violence, yes, there is a similarity. In both cases, people are killing each other in the name of god. I still fail to see how being killed, or killing, in the name of a christian god would make me better than killing or being killed in the name of a muslim one.
