I get the satisfaction that I'm living the most honest life that I can!

My Sundays are free & I save 10%.

I feel awed, inspired & overwhelmed by the beauty & nature of the cosmos.
A god is not necessary.

I take satisfaction in knowing that I was able to open my mind and can now enjoy the world, the universe, and science on a level that I never did as a believer.

Comfortable.
I am comforted by the fact that when bad things happen to me or others it isn't because some capricious or malicious being wants it that way.
I am comforted by the idea that while in the past I have been fooled by human liars to my detriment, I'm not being fooled by this giant lie every day.
I am comforted to know that suffering from illness does not mean that I don't have enough faith or didn't pray enough, and that nobody is being cured because they are. I am enough.
I feel comforted that by accepting people for who and what they are does not mean I am breaking some cosmic rulebook full of absurd judgments and moral ambiguity.
I am comforted that my morals and ethics are far more fair, kind, and decent than the flockers flocking in the church down the street.
Mostly I am comforted by the knowledge that nobody is going to suffer any eternal torture, because hell simply does not exist.

I take satisfaction in knowing I have the personal integrity to follow the truth where it leads.

None. I do not require any of that.

I don't have the guilt of sin. No more fear of Hell.

Have been an atheist since age 13.

I feel responsible for my own happiness. This motivates me.

I surround myself with positive people.

I feel freedom, contentment with my lot in life, and pride in my independence.

I think for myself

I have been without faith in religion since childhood, so I don't know how yo answer your question. I let James Brown answer this:

I experience a great satisfaction from living an authentic life, that is, from being who I really am, and not having to lie about believing any of that religious propaganda.

I find no more "joy" of being atheist than I do from knowing that 1+1=2.

None .All it is is a thought process.Non believers are not happier ,smarter or better off than believers unless they are forced into a religion or unable to leave it. .Willing Believers probably get more emotional satisfaction than non believers

Not having to worry about death, or retribution from a mythical Sky Daddy. When I die it will be as it was BEFORE I was born. Or to put it another way, it will be as if I was NEVER born...accept to the few who remember me and loved me, but too soon THEY will be gone as well. It's been 14 BILLION years since the Big Bang; my poor little meaningless time on Earth of less than 100 years, pales in comparison.

See, I did geology at uni, which makes you into a bit of an uber-athiest. You get to look at the world in full 4d. I've stood on top of a volcano in Indonesia, and my mind was filled with knowledge of what was going on under my feet, with how that fitted with the neighbouring peaks arcing off into the distance, with the oceanic trench to the south and the Australian continent, far over the horizon, crawling towards me at the speed of fingernail growth. Eruptions, subductions, faulting, folding, and partial crustal melting.
I don't see how the sheer... joy this gave me could be available to the deist.

Never was a believer, and you can't force yourself to believe however much you may gain by doing so. And if there are any advantages, then not having to do cognitive dissonance all the time is perhaps the best.

I wouldn't call it satisfaction. I'd call it relief.

I don't know that I get any emotional satisfaction from atheism. I certainly don't think I'm smarter or more righteous because I'm an atheist, and I'm no rebel. The best I can say is that I feel like I'm living a more authentic life now, that my principles are more consistent and that I'm not seeking simplistic solutions to complex problems. I suppose there's some satisfaction in that, however slight, though I think the devout feel far more satisfied and comforted in their world view.

I am happy to be curious about the world and how everything works without knowing all the answers.

I think it is more of an intellectual satisfaction than an emotional one.

I like being right all the time!

I get the satisfaction of being independent and brave, because we atheists are brave individuals by definition. As atheists, we have to take full responsibility for our actions and accept all their consequences knowing full well that there is no superpower that will come to save us. I enjoyed that protection when I was five and my father carried me on his shoulders; I am no longer five, my father is no longer here to protect me, I now protect myself, I don’t need my father, I don’t need a god. As atheists we know that when our bodies reach the end of their functionality, that’s it, and we accept that end without the need of a promise of an afterlife. As strong and loving individuals, we love ourselves and have people that love us; we don’t need the love of an non-existing being. As strong individuals, we are at ease in solitude; we don’t need the promise of ever loyalty. As atheists we know life has no other meaning but the one we want to give to our lives. As atheists we don’t need a powerful god, we are powerful over our lives. This is the description of brave person, and we are the few.
