Rankings.

UK 13th (I'm a Labour boy, but fuck you Blair.)
USA 15th
Aus 9th

Shock to anyone that Finland, Sweden and Denmark are the top 3?(Norway 5th) Social Democracies and very atheistic states. Weirdly I don't think Iceland is even in this ranking system, they'd be in the top 5 fosho.

My wife mentioned something about moving. She said "lets move to Texas"

I said "that will be the day we get divorced"

If I am moving ANYWHERE, I am moving to Amsterdam or Sweden.

I don't buy those figures. What data are they using? How do they calculate that information? Is the data accurate?

Saudi Arabia at 111? Russia at 133. Venezuela at 133

No fucking way that Saudi is higher on the list then either of those. I call BS.

And US corruption rate only18.... Venezuela is 140. That chart is not accurate.

Russia is awful, and it got progressively worse under Yeltsin and Putin. Venezuela is as corrupt as fuck. There is a good program on Uk Channel 4 called, travels of a gringo, he goes around South America, he meets Chavez and goes to Venezuela, there are gunfights between different supporters, and even Chavez supporters sat things are no better, nothing has changed except the rich have gotten richer, Chavez is a champagne socialist.

Amsterdam sucks, just visit and get the hell out. Most Dutch with common sense do.

But all better then the US? I don't think so. Watch the Oliver Stone documentary. The US kills more civilians in this day and age then any other country. So the charts are still wrong, or they use incorrect data to come up with their figures. US is top in corruption, staging coups and overthrowing sovereign nations, billions of corporate dollars in our government. Give me a break.

I wonder if you could even function without a boogeyman to focus on?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Oh, Im sure I will come to my conclusions after a while. Regardless, I would STILL have to visit if I am in the area...even if for just a day or two.

With Santorum claiming that Americans don't have the right to privacy & wants the government to police people's bedrooms, and he's an ex-senator running for president, I'm surprised we're as high on the list as we actually are.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
