Is every stone building dug out of the sand, macheteed out of the jungle, or dredged out of the continental shelf a temple?

I've noticed that whenever an archeoligist can't explain what some structure or object is, he decides that its a temple, or has deep religious significance. Sometimes, they're even right.

Of course, its only modern overly-rational mankind that insists on separating the world into religous and non-religous parts.
