Results and interpretations of research into the relative happiness of religious and non-religious people differ. Research in the United States has shown that religious people are generally happier, but comparative studies of different countries in North-America and Europe seem to indicate that it is more a question of belonging to a group, rather than the actual religious or spiritual practice.
