Question:

Which is a greater predictor of worldly success?

Religious belief...or intelligence?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Intelligence.

Though confidence & persistence rank even higher than that. Intelligence alone will not lead to success if you lack the confidence or determination to achieve it.

If you're very religious, worldly success wouldn't even be a priority because material wealth is unimportant. It is spiritual wealth that matters. Being a good person to be worthy of Heaven.
