Well my happiness comes from the fact that I know that I am the one soley responsible for my actions. I cannot blame my thoughts and actions on any god or fairy.
As I see it life is meaningless and pointless, that I don't see as a bad thing because that means we are free to choose our own destiny, there is noone else that have a say in it. We are free to decide for ourselves.
Freedom is one of the most exhilirating and joyfull feelings I know, religion is in my eyes a mental prison where you are locked up by a way of thinking that simply is not valid in todays modern society where we know for a fact that many of the religious rules are simply wrong.
Happiness steems form the fact that I am free to do what I want with my life, no god or pixie has my whole life written down somewhere before I have lived it yet. A life without freedom is pointless no matter how many gods and santas that have a purpose with my life.
What point is there of living a life that is alredy set from the day you're born to the day you die? A life you have absolulty no influence on. That is among the worst horrors I can think of.
