religion makes people happy?
#6
RE: religion makes people happy?
Religion is a "get out of jail free" ticket and so allows the "religious" to abdicate andy responsibility for their own life or life circumstances.

It really is amazingly "freeing" the ability to place the 'blame' onto and external forse/ god/ deity... and so you become 'happy that "it's not my fault" and everything that goes with that.

Ergo the religious are "happy" because they have abdicated their own responsibility for their own existence.... it's all god/s fault.

Dunno
