Évaluation
A new Israeli study shifts the mortality conversation away from religious belief itself and toward the social fabric around it. The finding that community ties and cohesion matter more than affiliation alone suggests that the protective effect often attributed to religiosity may actually come from belonging and mutual support.

Watch for follow-up research that isolates which specific community practices drive the lower risk.
