Has a Happy Person Ever Become Atheist?

While procrastinating during my study time I was thinking...

How come I have never heard an atheist say, I was outside on a beautiful summers day gazing at the greenery when I said to myself, "There is no God."

It always seems to be:

1. I had this bad stuff happen to me
2. I saw suffering
3. These people acted evil and hurt me or someone else
4. The world is a bad place

On the contrary, people who become Muslims or Christians mention:

1. Someone did good to me or someone else
2. The heavens and the earth so beautiful and complex


Seems like more often than not, atheism sprouts from negativity, while theism from positivity.

Now you may say that you "logically arrived" at atheism, but new theists would say the exact same thing. This doesn't change the pattern of negativity and positivity that I mentioned above.
