Pope blames atheism for all the worlds problems.

Unless you can demonstrate that you're happier than a religious theist, why on earth should they take atheism seriously?

How is that relevant? Nobody decides to be an atheist (or to be in agreement with any other spiritual/philosophical belief) because he thinks it will make him happier. People simply "become" atheists when, for whatever reason, they don't believe that any gods exist.
