Is Happiness Without Religion Possible? (page 2)

never a jw

Religion really makes a lot of people very happy. They travel in private jets, they live in luxurious mansions, they eat the best food, they are worry free about health care and long term care, they enjoy the good life living in lakefront properties. And the good thing is that they didn't have to work a day in their lives to get these benefits. They just had to rely in Jehovah to provide... an abundance of the meek and gullible.

All depends on the person.

"So, religious people (at least in the United States and other religious countries) are happier on average than non-religious people. But, the key variable does not appear to be religion itself. Instead, it is the social connections that religious life facilitates that make people happy." - Clay Routledge Ph.D. Are Religious People Happier Than Non-Religious People?

As usual, sweeping assertions made by the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses are not backed up by the empirical evidence.

consider how true worship promotes family happiness.

Lying twats. The WBT$ rips families apart.

Anyone that needs a book to tell them to be happy, moral or anything else is a bleedin' idiot.

Those poor unhappy 1 Billion Atheists :(

Is Happiness Without Religion Possible?

Yes.

According to the 11/2017 Study Watchtower.......apparently not.

The WT is no different than most-to-all religions in that respect.

Whats both ironically and disturbingly funny about this "happy" indoctrination is that JWS will mostly try and smile intentionally when its known there are newly interested ones or ones who they might expect would join their cult.

I've seen people JWS smile ear to ear at funerals at Kingdom Halls , weirdly and inappropriately.

When your a JWS you are constantly being evaluated upon presenting a good image and witness to Jehovah.

He's such a happy god and wants all of humanity to be happy as well too.

So he's going to murder most of them very soon.
