If your hypothesis was true, we'd see the results in the real world. Countries and states with the "most churched" people would demonstrate better markers of well being, but the reality is the exact opposite. Even when we use your method, interview people here in the U.S regarding their churchieness, we get the same results. The more fundamentalist a population, the worse the fair on measures of well being.
Wealth and socialism kill belief in God. Materialism or the State replace God.
"...it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”
“You cannot serve both God and money.”
Wealth correlates with Education and IQ, all three of which correlate with lower believes in god(s). As for Socialism killing God, IME Marxism is a religion, so it's the substitution of one theology for another.
You didn't use logic or reason to get into this opinion, I cannot use logic or reason to get you out of it.
