From what I remember, Episcopalians have the highest level of achievement in the USA. After the Episcopalians, than come the Jews. I live in NYC, and Jews dominate in industries such as banking, finance and in real estate. Another faith that has high level of intelligence is Presbyterianism. Not to far from where I live, by walking about, plenty of Wasp and Jewish places of worship are often more ornate than St Patrick's Cathedral which is the seat of papacy of NY. From what I remember, certain protestant groups and Jews have similar work ethic, believe in values such as family, owning property, investing in the future, sending their kids not only to college, but to a good college that gets their children exposure, and recognition when graduating. This is the reason why I tell people. You cant be upset at Jews, these folks work hard. Why every joe is spending two dollar, a Jew is only spending one dollar, and upon pay day of another two dollars, that extra dollar turns into three dollars, and joe is stuck with two again, and the process repeats. Faith has a lot to deal with when being brought up and raised and where one is placed in life. Christians believe in an afterlife, where Jews even though believe in an afterlife to a lesser extent. Jews put more emphasis on now vs major Christian groups like Roman Catholics and Eastern Greek right Churches who worry about afterlife and being good throughout life.
