I have to agree, being from Norway, a contry almost as atheistic as Sweden i realize that the Scandinavian view on religion is very different from e.g. the US.
People just don't care. Religion is a NON-issue. [Except in a small region in the south]
Let me give you a few examples:
I have NO idea if our prime minister is religious, no one cares.
Norway has not yet gotten rid of the "State church" (Sweden got rid of it in the 90' some time), why? Mostly because people don't have enough against, but VERY few go to church. I have not through my entire life met ANYONE who goes to church regularly.
My guess would be that 90% of the people i know are atheists. When it turned out that one of my class mates were a christian everyone was like "Really? You don't believe in evolution? What is your opinion on X" and they started questioning him about all kinds of stuff.
If you say that you don't believe in evolution there is very large chance that people will say "What? for real?"
