I do see some correlation between unhappy uptight Christians and really, really, really, fundamentalist Christians.  But I also see some very socially connected crazy happy fundamentalists. I see some correlation between unhappy uptight atheists and atheists in really, really, really, fundamentalist Christian households.   There are also a few other Christians who seem to make themselves guilty and unhappy with religion.   Other than that, religion mostly doesn't seem to have that much to do with honestly, self honesty, happiness, intelligence, reliability, or income. I'd like to say, free yourself of religion and all will be wonderful, but all I can really say is that you'll have your Sundays free and you won't have to worry about silliness's like thinking masturbation is a sin, or that your gay child can't go to heaven.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
