WELCOME TO THE NEW WORLD ORDER...

Actually that wasn't the point I was making, I see either you or FIDEL edited it out, but no matter. The important thing is you're able to recognize that Stalin and Mao didn't kill people because they were atheist but because they were paranoid and power mad, why can't you draw the same conclusion in regard to religion? The Pope was and probably still is the single most powerful person on the planet. Don't you think he would do anything to keep that power?

Who says I haven't drawn that conclusion? Once again, you miss my point, which is that for all the religious bleating about how it requires belief in a god to be a moral person, such belief hasn't stopped the atrocities committed by the faithful which still go on today -- nor has it stopped the blind lemmings such as yourself to keep bleating the mantra that belief in a god is the only way to be moral.

By the way, I didn't change any of your words -- I simply edited out the claptrap and kept what deserved a reply.

As per usual the atheist tries to discredit the information. I find it interesting that we are not even discussing religion, yet you still have to take the opposite side of the argument. I don't even believe you guys are really even against religion, you just have a disagreeable psychology.

If you think a phone poll is of the same probative value as collated data, you're not as smart as I had thought -- and believe me, I've been underwhelmed by your intellect, such as it is, for quite some time now.

Lets recap shall we, as per usual Abris implies that the source of my information (Gallup) is flawed.
If you read HIS Wikipedia link, you would see that the souce for information report is gallup!!!

You apparently have an inability to read simple English. Here's a list of the references for that Wiki article:

Note the absence of the Gallup Organization in that list of references.

And here is the Happiness Report itself: http://www.earth.columbia.edu/sitefiles/...Report.pdf. Note that it is not a Gallup poll. Note also that it goes into extensive detail, as opposed to a phone poll, which is inherently superficial, as well as suffering from selection bias.

Do you see your mistake now?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Happiness_Report
(the part in red is what I stated makes a happy society, as you can see, secularism isn't a criteria)
The report in the Wiki is from 2013, while the link I posted from the ACTUAL WEBSITE is from 2014, yet you try to explain why it's wrong when both reports are done by the same organization! smh

Except that they weren't done by the same organization with the same methodology asking the same people, which should be obvious to anyone with a working brain.

Ok sir, please post a link to the correct "report" if you have one....

The link is above, but in case you missed it in your hurry to post yet another idiotic reply, here it is again: http://www.earth.columbia.edu/sitefiles/...Report.pdf.

Dumbass.
