The issue is about the SECULARITY OF THE GOVERNMENT OF DENMARK.
On that note, WHAT DOES HAVING A SECULAR GOVERNMENT MEAN TO YOU? is that clear enough?
Don't come back talking about a "christian nation"....
Ah yes, the humility of Christ on display in one of his most ardent followers. Huggy, I used the link you provided to definitively demonstrate that despite Denmark's constitution prescribing an official state government that the country is secular. This is measured by less than 5% of the populace regularly attending service and the fact that Denmark has had five avowed 'atheists' as head of state. Did you also miss the fact that there is only one party that overtly displays their Christian religion, and they haven't won a seat in the legislature since 2001? I'm pretty sure this meets any reasonable definition of a secular government as it is practiced.
What amuses me is that to my knowledge, the United States is the only explicit secular country by definition; given of course by the Establishment Clause in the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Perhaps you didn't get the news, it was ratified in 1791.
You of course will continue to say and believe anything you wish; however, you are simply wrong. There's no amount of hope, deflection, obfuscation, or praying that will change the fact that you are demonstrably wrong. Got it yet? You're fucking wrong!
