Frankly, when I see that Little Rik is the last person who commented, I don't check the thread. I know it's gone downhill.

In the same way as the chronically deluded are funny.

In the same way that racists and sexists are funny.

In the same way that egomaniacs are funny.

I guess I just like trolls
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

If the OP was correct then you'd think atheists would live longer but they don't. Atheism is bad for your health.

It's from having to put up with years of theists telling us we're going to burn in some mythical place of torment.

We love science so it's to test that claim.

Quote:Minority stress

Minority stress describes chronically high levels of stress faced by members of stigmatized minority groups. It may be caused by a number of factors, including poor social support and low socioeconomic status, but the most well understood causes of minority stress are interpersonal prejudice and discrimination. Indeed, numerous scientific studies have shown that minority individuals experience a high degree of prejudice, which causes stress responses (e.g., high blood pressure, anxiety) that accrue over time, eventually leading to poor mental and physical health. Minority stress theory summarizes these scientific studies to explain how difficult social situations lead to chronic stress and poor health among minority individuals. It is an important concept for psychologists and public health officials who seek to understand and reduce minority health disparities.

Wikipedia || Minority stress

By the way, for what it's worth, your logic doesn't follow. It's possible for atheists to both be emotionally stronger and still live shorter lives.

his does not follow one can be emotionally strong and still die young.But a lot of this study makes little sense .
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
