I think it'd be cool for a study to be done on these happiness and outlook levels before and after conversion or deconversion? And also compare that to baseline lifelong athiests?
Because when I was a believer I was told via theistic outlook along with evident societal representation, that athiests are unhappy. But whenever I would see them in my daily life, they would be quite the opposite.
I wish science could dispel all the illusions put out there through bias.
Oh please do post the results btw, I'm sorta interested

If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.
