Why is "religious" art important? Why should there be a need to document things through art regarding religion?

Art, in itself, has always been a way for man to document and describe his religious beliefs, the "meaning" of his life, and his relevance in the world. Religious art has always been "beautiful" to look at, but it is crucial to remember it's importance to each civilization and the way they want future generations who view it to remember them.
