The correlation between wealth and religion has been subject to academic research. Wealth is the status of being the beneficiary or proprietor of a large accumulation of capital and economic power. Religion is a cultural system that often involves belief in supernatural forces and may intend to provide a moral system or a meaning of life.
The GDP of countries generally correlates negatively with their religiosity, i.e. the wealthier a population is the more secular it is.
