Materialism is not a religion, but is does control a lot of humans behaviour quite the same way - although in a bad direction. It might date back beyond human history, as some animals have the same impulsive urge to gather way more food, than they can eat in a life time.
For humans, it set normal behaviour like dignity, humanity and general social behaviour aside. I have experienced the result so many places, where nature use to thrive.

Materialism is a form of philosophical monism according to which matter is the fundamental substance in nature, and all things, including mental states and consciousness, are results of material interactions of material things. According to philosophical materialism, mind and consciousness are caused by physical processes, such as the neurochemistry of the human brain and nervous system, without which they cannot exist. Materialism directly contrasts with monistic idealism, according to which consciousness is the fundamental substance of nature.

Materialism is closely related to physicalism; the view that all that exists is ultimately physical. Philosophical physicalism has evolved from materialism with the theories of the physical sciences to incorporate forms of physicality in addition to ordinary matter. Thus, some prefer the term physicalism to materialism, while others use them as synonyms.
