STUDY: Want ‘sustained happiness’? Get religion.

[Lemonvariable72]

Question: What is the best way to achieve "sustained happiness"? Is it by:

1) volunteering or working with a charity;
2) taking educational courses;
3) participating in religious organizations; or
4) participating in a political or community organization?

Answer: 3.

I understand the draw of many psychoactive substances is that of producing euphoria.
They, like religious organizations, have a down side.  Sometimes it is lethal.
In the case of religious delusions the size of James Inhofe's it looks like it'll be fatal for technological civilization.  He really shouldn't be able to advocate against climate change mitigating actions on the grounds that God wouldn't let us ruin our ecosystem.  But he does.

"God's still up there", the "arrogance of people to think that we, human beings, would be able to change what He is doing in the climate is to me outrageous."

Fortunately, denying that smoking will hurt your lungs is still an option.

Your gonna die someday anyway. Hell every breath you take is releasing free radicals that will eventually kill you. So why worry and say I wont do this, when the king and the popper go to the same place.
