Considering that there are many intelligent scholars of science who choose to remain religious even as adults, and conversely, many simpletons who suspect it's just a bunch of bullshit.
I'm under the impression that there are so many variables that we may not be able to pinpoint a specific profile.

eg:

Cultural - would you want to be an atheist doctor in Saudi? Or keep your mouth shut and have a nice life?
Personal - Spouse and most family/relatives are religious ... Don't rock the boat while life is good.
Intellectual - This probably applies to the vast majority. Most will not even know that an alternate explanation even exists, and therefore never try to seek it.

And an infinite mix of all of the above.
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.
