What you're actually pointing out is that there are more non-religious wars than religious wars. But that does not mean those wars were "caused by atheism". They are usually caused by political differences or territorial disputes. "Atheism" doesn't come into it at all.
I'll settle for your opinion T.S because it is little more than pedantics to me and the point is that by far the hugest percentage of all wars are through non-religious causes.

Though you are arguing against the authors/compilers of the three sourcebooks given and not me.
