> What relevance is the percentage of religious individuals?

Only that OP asserted as fact something that is disputed as fact by a large percentage of the population.

> Religion is evidently not relevant in any case.

I think it's relevant. I would venture to say proving AGI is possible is tantamount to proving God doesn't exist (or rather, proving God is not needed in the formation of an intelligent being)

> What ChatGPT already does today religious individuals 50 years ago would have near unanimously declared behavior only a "soul" can do

Some religious people, maybe. But that sort of blanket statement is made all the time "[Religious people] claimed X was impossible, but science proved them wrong!"
