This so-called insult that we are all unhappy really makes me laugh. (Though, sadly, not in a good way.)
My disbelief in deities really has nothing to do with my level of happiness. The only way that religion even effects my 'happiness level' is when I read, hear or see something about zealots murdering one another (in Iraq for example). Or reading about the history of organized religion and how it has attempted to crush scientific studies, how it has murdered people who were non-believers, how it has suppressed dissent and created a global society, where even today we see the results of religious clashes.
If I have any unhappiness in my life, it does not stem from my rejection of religion, it comes from my disgust with the human race's inability to grow up.
