Pluswhich, your few exceptions prove the rule.
Let’s look at big places with lots of people and a long history of adherence to the religion:
Pakistan, Indonesia, Egypt. etc.
U.S. France. Germany. etc.
You pick which set you’d prefer to live in.
Sorry buddy, but no dice. If you want "big places with lots of people" then you should include Mexico which is bigger than Germany and DR Congo which is bigger than France. Would I rather live in Congo or Pakistan? Pakistan if you held a gun to my head, but I really would rather get as far away as possible from either. My point is this -- religion is a lousy predictor of national culture or success.
Some countries are nice places to live and some are crappy places to live and there are a lot of things that influence success, peace and wealth. Religion doesn't seem to be all that important.
