Why were the Boers so religious?

Those in the East Indies relied upon trade with China and other areas and, in general, meant they were dealing with Confucians, Hindus, Muslims, native faiths, Buddhist, the Japanese, and others depending on what time periods are areas we are thinking of. They were there for money, not to prostylize. Besides, some of what they didn't wasn't exactly Christian.
 
There is the tendency of peoples in hostile environments with scarce resources mainly in arid lands to have a deep religiosity like here in Brazil the Northeasterner/nordestinos are notorious for their religiosity, people with comfort and fullness are less religious. I live next to a sanctuary city, you see many cases of people going through serious health problem survive and awaken their faith.
