Actually I visited Holland twice, stayed in Dronten, it's in the newly reclaimed area I think. I learned it was 6 meters below sea level and thought it very cool, if somewhat worrying

The one enjoying it immensely was VJ. Judging Finnish society by him is roughly like judging American society by native american lesbian separatist vegans.Originally posted by VetLegion
Well I remember making a poll about mandatory religious education some time ago, and Finns not only had it but (those who replied) seemed to enjoy it immensely. So I figure, they go in the belt.Why can't you be a non-conformist just like everybody else?

I'd say Norway probably adheres more to religion (or rather, religiously originated customs/practices) than Finland, or any Nordic country.
In some respects, a good portion of Norwegian society is not very 'liberated' in terms of tolerating alcohol, pornography, borderline blasphemy in an artistic context, allowing various forms of public entertainment on Church holidays and so on.Comment

It's true, but I would think it has more to do with being located relatively isolated, having a very small, homogenous population and relatively little personal interaction with the rest of the cultural sphere than with religion being especially dominant.Comment
