It depends what you place value in religion/faith tends to universally point out the folly of basing your life material wealth and physical pleasures alone. If it's based on friends, family and doing good for others that's a quality spiritual happiness, though everyone's going to die at some point of course. Not necessarily eventually either so certainly there's a great deal of finality to your happiness here if you believe life ends at the grave.

Perhaps you're the one with the sick outlook on life? I don't know enough about you to say though.
Quote:And depression is just a problem with a lack of faith? You know what I call that: taking advantage of the vulnerable to indoctrinate, nothing more. Really despicable.
Well it is true to some degree if you're going to base your happiness on a purpose free life that ends at death. If you have a really great amazing life of comfort and wealth free from pain and suffering then perhaps you can just about manage it. You can tell anyone who is perhaps in a worse state than yourself who finds solace in their faith in God to fuck off and/or learn some science or whatever. I think that's ultimately the road you take with atheism.
Come all ye faithful joyful and triumphant.
