I've literally read this post half-a-dozen time to make sure I'm not making a mistake, but it seems you are saying completely contradictory things in back-to-back sentences: 1. We agree that God's existence isn't dependent upon your desires. 2. But it's dependent on someone's desire to be happy. What? You're taking things out of context. "God's existence" isn't dependent on anybody's desire to believe in God. Somebody's decision to "believe in God" is dependent on their desire to be happy. Yes, but if God's existence isn't dependent upon anyone's desire to believe, then your decision to believe based on your desire to be happy is irrational relative to the truth of God's existence. You can't agree that your desire has no bearing on God's existence, yet your desire to believe is a rational reason to believe "God exists" is true.
