Greetings from Denmark
Hi

Just wanted to greet you all, im a new member here, i will most likely just be browsing the forums, I enjoy seeing how other people's view on atheism.
I might have a different view on atheism, than other people here growing up an atheist in a scandinavien country, i have never really gotten any resistance for my beleifs.

Im 34.
Live in Denmark.
Been working as an IT Supporter, 2nd. level supporter, project manager for the last 9 years.

If anyone is curious about what its like growing up in a country where most people have a relaxed or non existing relationship towards religion, you are welcome to ask, and ill to my best to answer any questions.

Best regards.
Niklas

Think it has something to do with Scandinavian countries joined christianity rather late, add to the the change to protestant belief, we have very few extremists here, allthough alot of very casual believers, that goes to church 1-2 times a year.

I see alot of stories here with leaving religion here, worries me a bit, noone here seem to bat an eye if you say your an atheist.

The resistance people have to go through because of a difference of opinion, and the thoughts some religious people have towards atheists like they have no morals, untrustworthy etc.

I wonder if the number who attend church a couple times a year is less or greater than the number who don lederhosen to partake in folk dance?  

Regardless welcome to the forums (you lucky bastard).

Yours truly,

Envious in the land where Europe sent their nut job religious zealots.
