More religious countries may have lower incidents of suicide but they don&#x27;t seem to be enjoying the life they do have as much as the less religious countries.  None of the top 10 countries according to the World Happiness Report[1] are religious.  On the other hand, of the top 10 religious countries, according to your link, the highest ranked for happiness is Thailand at 34.   This shouldn&#x27;t be terribly surprising since it is a deadly sin to commit suicide in most of the Abrahamic religions and the more devout you are the more likely you are to adhere to this particular tenet.<p>[1] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;worldhappiness.report&#x2F;ed&#x2F;2015&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;worldhappiness.report&#x2F;ed&#x2F;2015&#x2F;</a>
