I think it's more a matter of how your world view affects your decisions and behavior.

Sometimes people will cease to act and worry over something, "giving it over to God," and plenty people pray hard over big decisions. During the time when they're praying, they're on high lookout for little nuances in the fabric of life which they might interpret as signs from God.

On the other hand, when such direct correlation is not so evident, what one believes can affect behavior subconsciously. They call it a "world view" because it is seriously just that: how you view and react to the world and all the semantics which come with it. It comes right down to what you wear, to what you eat, to who you date (And how far you go how early in that case), how you drive, how you react to peer pressure... I mean, seriously, a world view is deep stuff.

Belief in a higher being, or lack there of, changes your perspective on life, which changes how your character develops.
