Believer's often have it no better then unbeliever's. Preacher's like Kenneth Copeland preach pie in the sky and the only person getting rich is them.
But the question is pretty much, "If life was a fairy tail..." And it depends on whether it's a good or bad fairy tail.
Indeed, they are not! Our own bodies for example contain ridiculous accumulated biological errors such as tubes going all over the place instead of the safest and quickest route. Our eyes being rigged upside down and with massive blind spots. Our throat designed so we can choke. Useless organs such as the appendix that can only harm us. Massive portions of redundant DNA which are clearly the result of evolution and not coherent design. I could go on all day... and this universe couldn't really be more badly designed for us.
And like you say, the world is blatantly unfair and sick con men get away with anything while under the shield of piety. Many have already been debunked as knowing frauds.
