I think dysfunctional societies drive people into religion rather than religion causes dysfunctional societies.

The statistical method looked spot on to me. Still, no matter what, I'm sure it's not "proper evidence".

I'm looking forward to Chico's reply. But I hope if he wants to refute the research above that he will provide facts and figures, rather than his usual incoherent ranblings.

I can just feel the Google servers grinding to a halt...

While preachers preach of evil fates
Teachers teach that knowledge waits
Can lead to hundred-dollar plates
Goodness hides behind its gates
But even the president of the United States
Sometimes must have
To stand naked.

Godless societies are more successful

"In general, higher rates of belief in and worship of a creator correlate with higher rates of homicide, juvenile and early adult mortality, STD infection rates, teen pregnancy and abortion in the prosperous democracies"

Quote from here:

Interesting study

Study in more detail. I can't find anything wrong with the statistical methodology:
