I wasn't talking about facts. I was just stating that my impression, which could be wrong, was that religious people probably do more charity work than non-religious people, and charity work is the way I had chosen to measure good citizenship. I did mention that people who do charity work do not always do it for good reasons, but I don't think that really matters when measuring good citizenship.
Your way of measuring good citizenship, crime rates, is also a valid way to measure it, and yields different results to my beliefs. You may be right, I may be right.
