The point, again, is that the best places to live have little religion and the worst have a lot. Do you dispute this? Given a choice, would you rather live in Mozambique or Finland?
I didn't say anything about the middle, I didn't say anything about some religious places being better than some non-religious. I didn't mention Saudi Arabia or Vietnam.

I didn't make anything up. Used the HDI link that you nicely provided. Now if I had a choice of Russia (very non-religious) versus Finland (kind of religious)....definitely Finland.
Saudi Arabia vs. Mozambique........guess it would have to be Saudi Arabia.
The study is cherry picking facts to suit it's theory. Maybe we can have look at the number of Pirates and development? Singapore is surrounded by Pirates and they are REALLY developed.
