I don't think you can legislate morality. What underlies the Scandinavian psyche that would make them more moralistic, and, incapable of improved morality given the logic already presented?

I am not claiming that religious belief is logical. Religious people acting on their beliefs tend to behave very unreasonably.
People under any banner/ideology/ power act as the mob dictates. You're failing to grasp the difference between people who say they're Christians and Christ like acts.
I am a Christian. Everything I do isn't Christian. My aim would to be a good Christian, but mostly I fail at that. Is Christ to blame? No, I am.

It's funny how you Catholics see things ;)
