Bullshit. Bollocks on a huge scale Tongue
You don't know how others feel or how exactly they view the world. You assume people who believe in god tend to be more positive. But there is nothing to back that up.
I seriously doubt that believing in god makes you more...positive or appreciative of life than someone who doesn't believe in god.
It's about how you view the world and live your life and not what belief system your part of.
Gonna need a far better reason to believe in god.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
