You appear to be looking at this from one perspective only, which many do not share.

There's a massive difference between rejecting God, and concluding there is no God.
(unless it is blatently obvious that God exists, which doesn't appear to be the case, whatever Romans 1 *claims*)

Why shouldn't the latter have happy fulfilled lives?
In fact there are a couple of reasons, one being the rejection and alienation they encounter in a community where the majority do believe in God.
The other is the absence of a comforting view of the world that comes from some versions of belief in a deity.
But the comfort doesn't help determine whether the belief is true. Lots of people would tend to believe something that makes them feel good. It doesn't make it so (Or not so, to be fair).
Whether people should *accept* an untrue belief in God because it feels good... Now that gets interesting.
Harmless pyschological effect or dangerous illusion?

How can you possibly live without God? He is the one who gave you LIFE, he wakes you up in the morning allowing you to breathe. The people you see who denounce Him and seem to be living "Happy Lives" are only happy on the outside. Society has embedded into people that how you appear on the outside is how you feel on the inside. Jesus is coming back and they will be judged on their works, NOT on how much fun they had IN THE WORLD! Our physical bodies and appearance on earth will give us NO favor in heaven. Think about this, we are on earth to worship the Lord and to uplift and love fellow man, how good do you feel when you see a homeless person on the street with no food and you drive buy in your shiny new ride with a backseat of groceries? If you say you don't feel bad, you are lying to yourself. Remeber, life on earth is about works, not how much treasure you collect, you cannot take it with you when you die.

In the name of Allah the most merciful The most Gracious.
Islam teaches us that God almighty is Just and Merciful.Mankind is proud in his arrogance thinking to himself that he is self sufficient and does not need even God.There are people who love the lord their God and worship Him alone on his terms and conditions, There are people who d not believe in God, There are people who have given Him sons and daughters, There are people who say that he is three gods in One God and people who follow man made concepts and doctrines yet God almighty in his mercy has promised to give the unbelievers Their due in this world so
they are caught up in the enjoyment and deception of this
world and Satan makes them believe that they going to live
forever and this life is all that is there.

And then Allah the almighty God promises that on the day of
judgment ever soul will be paid his due.On that day no one will
be dealth with unjustly ,Every Soul who did an atoms weight of Good shall see it and every soul who did an atoms weight of bad shall see it .There will be nothing in the hereafter for
those who enjoyed their lives in this world but the hell fire, They will beg of Allah and say send us back into the world we
were a deceived people and we will ransom all our wealth
and luxuries and everything we possessed for a second
chance and Allah will reply ''When you were in this world we
did not ask you for anything but to worship me alone without
any partners.So remember The life of this world is of
deception and only in the hereafter you will be paid in full for
what you have earned..

Man can live happy and fulfilled lives for the blink of an eye according to eternity without God,

but the rest of eternity will really be a drag.

Of course we can, the simple explanation is because God does not exist. If you were to realistically look at everything it would become quite clear that God is completely false. More and more people are realizing this every year.

God is not some elixir of happiness as some people think. The God so many people worship is completely irrelevant to humans.

I live without gods, so the answer is yes.

We live happy and fulfilled lives because we find pleasure in taking responsibility for our own destiny. We aren't forced to "give up" any part of ourselves.

reason this my expensive are those devil already has and this lifestyles is all they gets..in the event that they have rejected God then their end would be the 2d demise and Eternity with God that could be a miles greater useful lifestyles to have... they have merely given it up for the Evilness and lust of this lifestyles and picture that is finished filling and satisfied One. they have no theory that God has something so stunning for them that in the event that they might evaluate the two..there is might appear like a lifestyles in a small domicile with few domicile windows. simply by fact God is so Loving, He needs the individuals who reject Him to have happiness in the international,he isn't evil, He Loves His advent, he's merely unhappy they settle for thus couple of minutes they might of had all of it and are blind to it. Their selection and God respects their selection.

Really good question. You can't live a worthwhile life with out God. I don't understand why people who reject God live happy lives except for Satan isn't after them - that's probably why.

Think adout this........

if you were a 20 millionare 35 years old and had aids would your life be fufilling?
people decive themselves to think that they are happy when they are really not. Would you be happy dying at 38 years old or liveing 87 years old?

The people's lives that seem so fulfilling are dying young....and if they are old, they wished that they were dead....

now the ? is would you rather live your life with God or be the 35 year old man that has everything that he wants but is dying on the inside?

True some of them may seem to live happy and fulfilled lives. But for how long?
