Again, "religious beliefs" only pertain to spirituality in the sense they are products of it. They are evidence that humans certainly have profound belief in spiritual nature. You want to look at the historic record, let's look at the attempts humans have made to try and live without spiritual belief? Every one of those empires declined into immoral decay and corruption, usually ending with millions of people dying. Civilizations without spirituality have ALWAYS failed. So some civilizations may have failed with it, but all have failed without it.
And a few examples of civilizations that have failed without spiritual belief would include?
Nazi Germany, Stalinist Russia, Maoist Cambodia, Jacobin France,.....
Just how many do you need to see?
