54. As a Dane I am offended
by the POS Scalia.

"In the synagogue that is home to America's oldest Jewish congregation, he noted that in Europe, religion-neutral leaders almost never publicly use the word "God."

But, the justice asked, "Did it turn out that, by reason of the separation of church and state, the Jews were safer in Europe than they were in the United States of America? I don't think so."

Denmark has a state Church (Lutheran) but no one cares what the religion a politician has.


During WWII Denmark managed to help almost 100% of its Jewish population flee to Sweden. This happened during the German occupation. There is even a Danish fishing boat at the Smithsonian to prove it. http://www.ushmm.org/education/foreducators/resource/pebrochure.pdf

What an idiot.
