If God Does Not Exist Then Where Did Happiness come from?

Happiness actually comes from an invisible multicoloured unicorn who sprinkles happy crystals on humans every now and then ; to think it may come from a god is ridiculous .

It's pink, though.

Yes you're right the once multicoloured unicorn is now pink , maybe the chimps blue chicken will also change colours too :)

Humans who were hormonally prone to sadness tended to both lack the urge to have sex and struggled to raise happy, healthy young to keep their genes going on. Consequently, the happy were naturally selected as the dominant humans.

But how did happiness begin? How can the brain all of a sudden create chemicals, such as dopamine, serotonin and other chemicals that make us happy, out of nowhere? And before species evolved to have the feature of happiness wouldn't that mean they would have all been extremely sad so none of them would have survived and produced well at all making living things as a whole die out.

First tell me where God came from.

If your attack on agnosticism is that happiness has no explicable origin, then please apply equivalent scrutiny to God.

Don't be knowin' 'bout you, mate, but me bein' a simple Kettering bloke I don't need anybody's idea of a god to make me happy. Jus' gimme a couple pints o' ale and a plate of crisps and put the Arsenal game on the telly and I'm as happy as a clam. Add a right fair and horny bird perched on me knee and it's close to heaven. without all that religious rubbish and those peksy pederast priests.

Happiness formed after the Champagne Supernova Big Bang. And then changed through many many generations of evolution. We are so much more happy now than the dinosaurs. Those guys just didn't know how to have a good time. It eventually killed them all. And then millions of years later along came Jesus, who knew how to have a pretty good time on the walkabout with his band of men, and took happiness to a new level. But after he dies his men were all sad and then wrote their feelings down all threatening of anger and bad times or else, and that's where modern religion steps in.

True story.
