Most of the crusades we think of were wars with Christians on one side and Muslims on the other, so the answer would be Christianity and Islam. There were other crusades, however, with other religious intent. The Albigensian Crusade was one of several against Christian heretics. The Hussite Crusade was against protestants (Catholic vs. Protestant). There were crusades against pagans (Christian vs. pagan), and there were crusades against Mongol hordes (Christian vs. Mongol). There was even one crusade, the Aragonese Crusade, which was really a war between the Pope and the King of Aragon over possession of land.
The Albigensian Crusade was launched by the Catholic Church against the Cathar heresy in southern France. It resulted in the suppression of the Cathars and the extension of royal authority in the region, contributing to the consolidation of power by the King of France. It also led to the establishment of the Inquisition to root out heresy.

During the Middle Ages Jews were tolerated by the Catholic, although reluctantly and with a blind eye to their persecution. Muslims and so-called heretics were considered an existential threat and were never tolerated. The Albigensian Crusade and the Inquisition were the Church's response to the rise of Catharism in Spain and southern France.
