An MIT economist studied the effects of religion on financial well-being, according to *U.S. News & World Report*. What did he find?

> First, he finds that religious participation is highest in those places where there is a high density of people sharing the same religious preferences; and second, that for those who are part of it, this "higher market density" leads to all sorts of good things according to key economic indicators such as income, levels of education, dependence on welfare, and marriage and divorce statistics.
