Yes, let's try again .... the countries I named - the USSR, Communist China and NK - destroyed relgion in their countries. Since you claim godlessness = happiness, you are essentially claiming those countries are and were the happiest on earth.

Of course, that's ridiculous.

Furthermore, we have evidence from our own country (from Gallup, Pew, etc) that shows religion is associated with mental health, happiness, sociability, and a number of other good things. And we know that in our society, the most godless people tend to be lonely irritable cranks who can't get along with anyone.

You know the kind of people who surf facebook looking for people abroad they assume are sophisticated and worldly and intelligent and then pretending they're good friends with them.
