Selfies at funerals
Metope:
I don't know about the US, but Norse style cremation is illegal in Norway, ironically enough.
GarandMarine:
Probably because it's a pagan ritual. Is Norway as srs bsnz about their Chrisitianity as the Swedes?
Metope:
Well we recently got rid of our state church, how that was even a thing for so long still baffles me. Sweden got rid of their about 10ish years before Norway though. I don't think they're that crazy about it really, of course some very loud people are, but they're not the majority. There's even a community somewhere that practices old Norse traditions, I think they might be allowed to have those type of funerals, but don't quote me on that.
GarandMarine:
According to Valdis the Swedish royal family still has to be Lutheren and apparently they only just changed the "every infant born here is baptised Lutheran... or else fuckers" rule.
Does the old traditions include pillaging England on the regular? Because I will start filling out immigration papers today if that's the case.
Metope:
Hahah, I don't think you get to pillage, unfortunately. It is true that the Royal family are lutheran, and many babies get baptised that way, but that's not a rule and I don't think it ever was. I know plenty of people who weren't baptised, I was because my family is lutheran, but everyone always stress that freedom of religion is important. I went to church one Christmas and they had invited all the muslims from the local mosque to see what Christmas was like and just be friendly, and then the muslims invited all the christians to their mosque at a later date, so even the church is trying to be respectful towards people outside of it.
