Applauding that supposedly there are 0.0 religious people in a country is NOT saying that religion is regressive, ignorant, and should be left behind? Besides that, people have said exactly what I just did in this thread.

Oh, well yeah. I don't believe in Creationism, and I don't think "God did it" is a feasible answer. But I don't see the issue with thinking God was involved with evolution or something

You're leaving out the part where they're stigmatizing beliefs that aren't theirs. We don't need a thread full of applause because Iceland has the "suprior" lack of religious beliefs of atheism. it's ignorant foolish.
For comparison, imagine if it was "0% of Icelandic people are gay!" And imagine people going :clap3" Sure, they're not ACTIVELY BASHING gay people, but the meaning is there, and it's transparent.
