As a deeply liberal-secular person I find this research very interesting and I don’t really combat it, I think trying to find more community and meaning in life is definetly a path towards happiness ala Victor Frankl, and one big precept of a more existential approach to life is that it in fact does make you less happy. Like one dispute I have with a very spiritual associate of mine, is that I think there’s virtue in trying to sit with it all and accept that there are no answers. At its root I wonder - is there a halfway point between I have all the answers and will try to remake the world into that image, and staring into the abyss. I mean, part of becoming an adult is accepting the fact that it’s not all happiness all the time.
