This study is BS, first it only interviews people over 50, so it limits its Ideas of happiness to one age demographic. Second it only gives people the choices of :
1. Work with charity
2. Taking classes
3. church
4. political organization
Third how do they know it's "sustained happiness" how did they measure this, how do they know the happiness will or has been sustained?
Also, If they interviewed 9000 atheists with the same four options, my guess is one of the other 3 options would be revealed as the key to sustaining happiness.
