Its a great place to be if you believe in God as well! God has nothing against pleasures of the flesh. Only religion does. Religion doesnt own God...
As far as your original question, yes, the world would be a better place. Religion posits unyielding absolute truths. If the answers about God and spiritual truths were left open to better answers as they came along such as science does, the world would be a much better place. How would one qualify "better answers"? Simple, by asking the question "what would love do?"
