*trigger warning* What if atheism's not all it seems?

RE: *trigger warning* What if atheism's not all it seems?
I'm curious, PhilosophicalZebra, if it were shown that believing that 2 + 2 = 5 led to improved mental well-being, would you commit yourself to believing that 2 + 2 = 5?

You seem more concerned with the consequences of believing than you do with whether or not the belief is true.
