IQ is a worthless metric. It does not test real intelligence.

(Not saying that because I don't score well, I just hate the common perception of IQ meaning intelligence, or even 'good at maths' meaning intelligence. The media (especially TV shows) tend to say 'X is really clever; she has an IQ of 173' and leave it at that in terms of characterisation)

What about a study of liberalism/religious beliefs vs. life success (e.g. income, living conditions, personal happiness, stable family).
