Happiness level after embracing atheism

[robvalue]

I'll rephrase my analogy a bit.

It was like someone poured their heart out at AA about how whiskey had caused them so much pain, and that even after kicking the habit it has left mental scars.

The next guy along pulls out a bottle and says, "What you need is some vodka! This will get rid of all your troubles."

That is not how you help someone. That's the exact opposite of help.
