B.S. Scandinavia is a depressing dead-end group of countries and she was kissing the ground when she got back in the U.S.A. Certainly a dead-end for a non-Scandianvian who hasn't assimilated into the hivemind.

Seeing that you do not know my friend, I am gonna have to consider your BS comment to in fact be BS.

Clearly you have no understanding of Denmark and are trying to pass off your lack of knowledge as testimonial into thinking it is some form of unified cult. So I am moving on from your posts if this is all you can produce.

This is pure ignorance. The claims of religion can be tested and proven as well.

LOL. So your argument is:

I believe in reason.
Therefore, I believe in science.
Therefore, science should be the official religion of our country.


Can you say "non sequitur"?

There isn't a country in the world that has enough widespread Christianity and economic inequality / villification of the poor to make them happy. Thus, here in the US they want public prayers and the head of state to be Jesus Christ, and take food and medicine away from the poor while raising their taxes (and cutting taxes on the rich), because schoolyard-style fairness is more important than happiness or progress.

Clearly both your friend, myself, and anyone else who has been there knows that you are the one who has no understanding. Its as monocultural and hivemindish as exists on the face of the earth. 'Lagom' (that which is appropriate, that which is fitting, not too much, not too little, just right) is the word which describes the Scandinavian psyche. Anything that is not 'Lagom' makes them very uncomfortable. They look down on flashy cloths, a wild hair style, drawing attention to yourself, anything weird or strange, high energy people, you name it. Plus they are so set in their ways and whitebread kosherness they will not even cross an abandoned street outside of the designated crosswalk.

Well I don't believe in your religion, I am sorry if that hurts your feelings, but a man rising from the dead sounds more like a zombie story than a religion I wish to follow. Also when was the last time you saw a "virgin" get knocked up by no body?

Guess you have a different interpretation of Denmark than me, not really my problem, I like the country.
