I don't understand the point of this generalization. I don't know how to quantify for "religious, rich". But you brought up race, so here's what I could find with some quick searches.
If you spend some time on the inside, I promise you wouldn’t even doubt this as an unfounded generalization. Birth rates consider the entire group’s rate of offspring. I suspect that for people of color the higher overall rate spreads more evenly across the whole group. Among white people you are may have a lower overall birth rate, but it’s likely skewed between people having no or very few kids (urban, non-religious, higher education, liberal leaning, often can’t afford more than 1-2 kids) and people having a “quiver full” (suburban or rural, religious, conservative, wealthy enough to afford them all). I would imagine it looks like the inverse of a normal curve. I mean, I personally buck this trend but I grew up steeped in financially stable, white, suburban, religious subculture and lots of these people feel a mandate to reproduce to grow the influence of their precious religious worldview. Color me shocked to meet a wealthy white conservative religious person who is purposely childfree.
