Actually you got yourself.
What are you saying that Christianity is Boring ? ha !
Then you haven't experienced it. No one who is a Christian will ever say that it is boring.
How do you know? Have you tried it? There are millions of Christians who have a lot of fun being Christian. We just do it with a lot less sin, and therefore, a lot less problems. Maybe it's only your problems that keep you from getting bored.
What do you think we do all day, sit around fireplaces and read Bibles? We ski, swim, play sports, read, have friends and problems like anybody else. Christianity is not boring. It is an adventure.
Oh I can say yes..we are happier than a skeptic, WE Don't have to get drunk or high with artificial stimulation to enjoy life.
Why do people use drugs and Alcohol to enjoy life anyway ? to escape from reality ?!
man...Jesus is reality !!!

I don't think you "got" anyone...
It all depends on the person. If they enjoy believing, then they are as happy as someone who enjoys not believing.
And to the "is a drunken man happier than a sober one" - if you do not like to drink then you wouldn't enjoy being drunk just as a man who enjoys being drunk wouldn't like to be sober.... Ha ha - got YOU!

Yes. A believer is happier than a skeptic. Do I need to bring up that old adage involving "ignorance" and "bliss"? It certainly helps you to think that you are a member of a religion that is Teh Troof, whereas anyone who disagrees with you is deceived by Satan. It helps to think that you are personally made in God's image, so that everything else in this world is able to be disregarded as less relevant than yourself. It helps to not have to worry about the meaning and origin of existence, because your holy book has all the answers...no matter how unsatisfying they are to non-believers. And it helps them to think that they will be rewarded with eternal happiness for their faith in this life. It is hard not to be happy when you assume that someone is controlling reality in your favor, and even misfortune is meant to at some point help you.
By letting Jesus take the wheel, you make it exceptionally easier for yourself. No doubts, no need for practicality or for struggles...just blind faith and optimism.
Edit: Damn...they beat me to the punch...

A believer has chosen(and hass God's peace & direction)
............a skeptic has chosen not to believe.
A crunkes man is miserable...that's why he drinks
A sober one knows he is richer, and won't be put to shame

The nice thing about being a skeptical pessimist is that you are rarely disappointed and often surprised.

There is some wisdom in this, but you pay for that happiness the next morning --- unless you stay drunk 24/7.

I don't believe we could make a generalization about that one way or the other.
