This is an interesting-ish article, but it's not saying what it thinks it's saying. When believing in heaven and hell and that there's only one true religion are considered marks of immorality, it's not surprise that it'll rate religious people lower than atheists. This is a measurement of how close different people and societies are to secular, Enlightenment-era European values, not how "moral" those people and societies are. None of this has anything to do with how likely these groups are to help a stranger.
