People saying Australia is racist, but UAE and Qatar are not? They treat foreign workers like ****, filipino maids are raped, indian workers are treated like third class citizens, UAE and Qatar are some of the most racist countries in the modern world.

Stats don't surprise me at all. Most of people I've met who go out of their way to let me know they're atheists have been cynical and unhappy in general. Like seriously, I've had more atheists shove their opinions on me than religious people, even though they're more rare in America.
Seems like most nonreligious people who are happy with their lives just call themselves agnostic or avoid the topic entirely.

Thanks for the 20 year old study. This is the exact reason why data, in the uneducated hands of someone who has no idea what they are looking at, can be used incorrectly.
First of all, atheism was changed to that AFTER the study was completed, they took everyone who checked, "religiously unaffiliated", and categorized them as atheist.
The study’s confounding variables (as even the abstract reports, the “unaffiliated” were very different demographically) suggests the same defect found in other similar studies: they fail to distinguish between having a religion and the mere fact of having a social network (and identifying with any worldview, religious or not).
Also, it is a proven fact people of higher intelligence are more likely to commit suicide. (This does not imply correlation = causation, like OP is attempt to misinterpret data so people can draw a false conclusion to prove his confirmation bias.
OP please don't go around reading any charts or data anymore, you obviously have no idea wtf you're doing.Belief without evidence is a fools game.

Atheist resorts to suicide more is because their fundamental views are wrong. As they tend to develop views based on materialism and nihilism, not to mention they also suffer from arrogance generated from self hate, so it's a lose lose situation.
Their ignorance means they do not know the consequence of suicide... they only end their physical body, but their consciousness will continue to suffer, especially that they will perhaps be reborn in a realm that is way worse than their current situation.
