The article's title doesn't match up with the data presented.
First of all when it comes to importance of religion in people's lives America is in the middle, which isn't so bad. Additionally it doesn't look like the data represents every country.
There are several countries in Africa not on this data representation and Africa is possibly one of the worst places in the world for religious nuts. As in superstition is rife, human beings get killed and their bodies used for good luck charms, Muslim vs Christian violence, the belief in witches and ghosts.
Secondly Americans are delusional because they believe hard work is the primary predictor of life success? Success is relative to what a person wants to achieve. Whoever wrote this article seems to be confused about the difference between having money and being successful.
Most things that people want to achieve do take some form of hard work to succeed in, that's not delusional. Plus it's all relative so not really something you can provide concrete data on whether it makes someone delusional.
It seems most of the data is relying on comparing America with Europe and not the rest of the world aswell in the other cases it's tying to show.
If you want to create an article like it and actually use the data presented in relation to demographics in the US you could create a title like "Non white Americans are religious nuts especially when compared to white Americans"
I personally wouldn't make such a blanket statement, but that's the style the author of the article is going for.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
