This is surely just a matter of opinion based on observation though, unless of course you have been taught at a religious school any time recently and experienced it?
I gained a lot out of mine and reflect on what I was taught a lot now that I am old enough to appreciate it.
How does one get in touch with their spiritual side when they are younger if they aren't taught about religion? What other subject awakens that path of thought?
