The World's Happiest Countries
« on: August 26, 2010, 10:44:40 AM »
The World's Happiest Countries are the Least Religious 
 The world's happiest countries have been announced, and three of the top five are among the least religious countries in the world, reports Alfredo Garcia at Religion News Service. Garcia acknowledges that this "might be like comparing apples to bookshelves" and that "measures of 'happiness' or 'religiosity' can often be so vague and difficult to quantify that they lose their meaning" but it's a notable finding all the same. Here's more:

The nations taking the top spots include: Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden and the Netherlands. This might not come as a surprise to many who have been to these nations. What is surprising, however, is that three of these five nations are among the top 10 least religious nations in the world (also from Gallup).

Indeed, Sweden, Denmark and Norway came in at second, third, and fourth, respectively. Only Estonia was less religious than these nations.

Hey retard, do you think it has anything to do with the fact that those are some of the most irrelevant and stress free places on earth?

Also, unless you've been living under a rock for the past 10 years, The Netherlands has been under a constant onslaught of radical Islam. As more muslim filth moves in, the happy Dutch are having their culture squeezed and their lives threatened.

And, not to point out the obvious again (while simeltaneously mocking your lack of reading comprehension skills) but the individual who created the study says in the first paragraph of what you posted- Garcia acknowledges that this "might be like comparing apples to bookshelves" and that "measures of 'happiness' or 'religiosity' can often be so vague and difficult to quantify that they lose their meaning

I wasn't aware "muslim" was a race, if you are going to try to label someone atleast get the label correct.

And you have met to make on argument  without either posting a youtube clip, a funny face, or stolen post from DU.  Against that utter crap and embarassing reality, I will accept being called a racist any day.

Out of curiosity, I went to DU the other day to see if he really did rip all of his threads off there and sure enough, every single daily thread he starts has ripped the youtube clip right off the left-hand side of that page. It's quite amusing, to say the least.

Moron isn't even capable of formulating his own thoughts and opinions. For once, the term "sheep" actually fits.

That you did. I just never checked to confirm it myself. You were quite right about that, though.  :D

The difference, bright spot, is that I always add at least 1 or 2 sentences containing my opinion of what I'm posting. You do nothing of the sort.

Yes I do, but can, and do, make arguments without resorting to youtube or stealing others posts as my own.  

I have forgotten more things in one day than you have learned in your entire life.

Wait a minute lets get back on track here, so you admit that you have no idea what racist means, but insist on using it to label others?
