i think this has huge repercussions for the world. crusades will be seen as viable ways of conversion, and due to their successes, will encourage even more, launched at all the huge former centers of christianity, like carthage and damascus. the reconquista might be even MORE violent. crusader-states will start popping up all over the muslim world.
this might forever (as opposed to OTL's temporary) alter christianity from a religion of peace to a religion of war by institutionalizing it in the roman catholic church. when or if the reformation arises, it may focus more on how jesus preached peace instead of war in his name. this may lead to more widespread anabaptist analogues and more pacifist protestants
