I don't see how that's very different than America. If you want to be obnoxious about your religion in public it's your freedom too, but that doesn't stop people from thinking you're crazy

A Valyn said, on paper both the American and the Scandinavian societys are christian, and unless you've actually expeirenced the cultures, you wont see how huge the difference is. In Scandinavia for instance, if a politician empasized being a good christian in his campagin, he would be labled a nut job. Same goes for pretty much anyone letting their personal religion affect anyone or anyhting but themselves.
