I have always partaken of a good deal of "Human Happiness", for the most part, but it has felt rather more "Genuine" since I gave up Christianity [about 10 years ago] as my current "Human Happiness" is no longer rooted in speculation and superstition, in groupism, and in the internalization of dogma and folklore. Looking back, I sometimes wonder what on earth I was thinking when I was religious. Nevertheless, it did not really cause me "Human Unhappiness". So, if people enjoy "Human Happiness", and even if they sincerely believe it to be "Genuine", through stuff like Substitutionary Spiritual Death of Christ on Our Behalf, then I wish them every happiness. However, I could never imagine going back to it. Indeed, the idea invokes a sense of "Unhappiness".

I think you'll find the last part of your post is like a red rag to bull around these parts.
To address the topic in at least semi serious fashion, could you enlighten me how I would know my happiness (I am human by the way) is genuine and not fake? Is there something like the Microsoft Genuine Advantage malarkey that will pop up and tell me my happiness media are not genuine?

The first sentence must be taken on faith and can't really be discussed at all.
This makes the rest of your post rather interesting. You want discussion, but you don't want opposing views. What do you want? Lots of thumbs up?
Have you ever had a discussion on this forum? I see you start lots of threads but haven't really ever seen to take part in an actual discussion.

Are you asking non Christians if they are genuinely happy, or are you claiming they cannot be genuinely happy by virtue of being non Christians?
Quite hard to have a "relaxed conversation." if it is the latter.
Originally posted by avalanchethecat Happiness is nice, but contentment is what you really want.
Both are self-centered desires.
Interesting that, given the doctrine of Jesus, the creator of this thread identifies himself as a Christian. But then, the doctrine of Paul, which seems to be what GB follows, is of the self-centered, by the self-centered, for the self-centered.

Please tell me more about your desires which are not self-centred.
