I think your question makes a lot of assumptions that prevent it from being answered in a meaningful way. Are you asking what a hypothetical person’s religion says that person should do if they’re not given the material help that they ask for?
I am just going to take a wild guess. but I think OP (is that what we call them here?) is asking for people who pray for example to win the lottery and get jack shit in return. And do those people leave their faith or religion or whatever because they were not granted what they asked for. Just my opinion I could be dead wrong but that is for the OP to correct me.

Do you believe a sefish person’s religious affirmations truly alter what their nature inclines them to do?
Yes, but once again I can tell that you’re making some assumptions that are preventing any sort of meaningful conversation.
What do you mean by “selfish person”? Everyone I’ve met is selfish to some degree.
If a person claims to follow a religion, but doesn’t follow that religion’s teachings, are they actually following the religion?
