If the government picked up the slack, would America become less religious?

Churches provide services where the government does not. I read a journal that said "Recent empirical research has demonstrated that countries with higher levels of religiosity are characterized by greater income inequality."

If we were to close some of the gap with income inequality- and the government provided more services to people- what would be the effect on churches and religion?

I would hope so, but Republicans. They hate poor people, probably becasue it encourages theocracy and keeps them rich.
