Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Australia used to be like that, to the point where I described our national religion as Apathism, don't know don't care. But since our politicians have started importing ideas (and direct quotes) from the Tea Party and similar loons our evangelicals have felt emboldened to infect our political processes and the rest of the country.

Sorry to hear that, I was thinking of moving to Australia about 20 years ago.
@TXLarry We still lag behind the US in all ways, good and bad, except health and public education, where we lag behind Britain instead.
Scandinavians are very intent on making the best of their situation for themselves and their fellow citizens. I have a young Norwegian coupled that I consider close friends. Their love and compassion for their family and fellow citizens is definitely to be admired. They talk openly of their atheism but perhaps they are the exception.
