Nov. 26th, 2004 02:03 amI'm getting on the computer too often lately.
I wonder if religion is all tangled with politics in Norway the way it is becoming in America. I read some random Norwegian girl's blog and she had this whole post that was saying things like, "Right now, I'm just sick and tired of living in a country ruled by inteligent conservatives, where the people in general really aren't conservative, they just have so much that they can't be bothered to think about any such things because they take them for granted and because they have more important things relating to clothing and make-up to think of. I think that nothing in this world is as scary as religion mixed with politics and we see a lot of that here in Norway...though not many people say that they are religious."
I know this is just one random girl's opinion and yeah she's probably generalizing, but it worries me a bit because what she said in the quote above is reminiscent of what I really dislike about my country's government, and while living abroad, I kinda wanted to get away from that.
