Now, of course, being depressed is a taboo in religions. Like Scientologists constantly spy on each other to see if they're smiling all the time and if they're not then they get reported and punished. I also see many religious people here (if not majority) delve deep into fantasy world like believing ancient primitive people built portals to another dimensions, or believe world is flat or 6 day creation etc. which are symptoms of serious mental problems and escape from obviously harsh reality that they can't handle.
Your best reference is Scientology?

I got to admit it atheists do seem to be more serious than religious people. Just look at this comparison:
Theists are smiling while atheist is very serious.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
