I hear that Sweden's the most atheistic country in the world, so there was bound to be a Swede along here sooner or later.
Welcome.
The polls look like this:
When given the question "Do you consider yourself religious?", 80 percent says no but when the question is twisted around and turned into "Do you believe there is something up there?" it drops to 45-50 percent. Either way i guess you can say that Swedes in general give fuck all about skywizards.
I really couldnt say why that is but i would guess that living up here, where its cold and dark 99 days out of a 100, people probably start to question it when praying dont lead to shit, its just fucking darkness anyways.
I guess this could also be the reason why people like Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris dont really go to Sweden to lecture. Swedes would probably dont give a shit. "Why are you talking about this, we already know this shit, bugger off!"
The big issue at the moment is aggressive Islam which hasnt found its place in the corner yet but were getting there.
