Well a theist could just as easily condemn atheism on fun theoretic grounds for being to depressing, or for removing the wonder from the world.
I'd be interested in discussing the matter with anyone who did so. It doesn't seem to me that either depression nor a lack of wonder follow from atheism, so I'd be curious about their inferential path.
Well a lot of people have that impression of atheism, not entirely without justification as the OP demonstrates.
Religion is also not necessarily boring, although a lot of people have that impression.
