A better life in whose eyes? Someone who struggles with sin turns to God for help and struggles on. Another who does not have these struggles sails through life without help, patting himself on the back proud of his own power.The point was the better person who doesn't worship gods is often deemed as living a less worthy life than the person who does not live as good a life as the nonbeliever and is often deemed to have lived a better life because he worships a god.
(I am setting aside hypocrites for this scenario. True hypocrites are found everywhere, but are much more rare than those who state the ideal they are striving to reach, yet continually fail. They keep trying. These are not hypocrites, merely someone who continues to pursue a lofty goal despite failures.)
