Without poverty and suffering people will be less inclined to be religious. 

It's no coincidence that there are less religious people in the modern world, with our modern medicine and technology, than in the past, and why the places with the least religion are the ones where people have more access to the basic necessities of life and more freedom. 

If religion is to be done away with then everyone will have to be given all of the necessities of life without exception and the freedom to associate and travel as they see fit. Only then will the two primary gateways to religion, poverty and desperation, be gone, significantly decreasing the appeal of religion. 

Of course there are other reasons people are religious that have nothing to do with socioeconomic suffering, such as a yearning for a meaning to life, which will exist even if an ideal society where suffering doesn't exist. Philosophical education can surely be a viable solution to tending to people's existential quandaries so that they don't fall into religion as an escape.
