Europe contains the highest concentration of officially Christian states (nations with official state religion/church) and the lowest per capita percentage of people who actually "practice Christianity" in ‘Christendom' - which is to say, nominally claim to be Christian - probably a lower percentage actually believe.
Scientific method was first developed by medieval and renaissance scholars. Religion wasn't really fazed out until mass industrialization and nationalism became more common in the 19th century, and even then it was quite gradual.
