Summary

This quote reflects a perspective on religiosity that emphasizes subjective well-being over objective truth. It suggests that the value of a religious belief lies in the happiness and fulfillment it brings to an individual, rather than its correspondence to reality. It questions whether the truth of a religious belief ultimately matters if it provides personal contentment and meaning. This notion highlights the subjective nature of faith and underscores the idea that different individuals may prioritize different aspects of religion.
