You just acknowledged that there are happy people in the world who don't believe in your god. Your perspective, is that you wouldn't be happy. I suppose it's a dead end. No one can think of anything a person can only get from a belief in god.How about peace of mind? The idea that a transcendent "someone" is watching over you, is very comforting. Most of the atheists I've dealt with, seem to have an inner struggle taking place within them, that renders them incapable of finding true, metaphysical rest. Even the happy atheist girl I know, is very promiscuous, to the point of absurdity.
Any ‘inner struggle’ atheists have is likely to be due to a lifetime of being inculcated in dangerous, harmful, stupid religious beliefs.
