Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 13:13, "And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity."
What do Americans spend each year on faith, hope, and charity? If we assume that gambling is like buying hope and religious donations are like a purchase of faith?
Hope - 0.6% of GDP
Faith - 0.6% of GDP
Charity - 2.2% of GDP.
So, the numbers seem to support Paul's claim.
