I do not know about Sweden, but from Norway they do.

My friend moved to Prague. He said it is difficult to raise children in Norway if you are a christian. He could not afford to buy a car. There is long waiting list for a house. And Norway is taxing expats even after they leave country (for three years).

It doesn't sound like your friend is a millionaire moving to escape taxes.

It is not tax heaven, but taxation in czechia is significantly lower.

Exactly?! - this doesn't jive with my (prejudiced) view of Norway as the "Bible Belt" of Scandinavia.

Isn’t that like saying the most depraved of devout Mormons? It’s technically a defined concept with a sensible meaning but the connotations are misleading.

Child protection? This is the spanking thing, isn't it? That subset of Christians who like authoritarian parenting without interference?

(Mind you I didn't know it had escalated to a diplomatic incident between Norway and Poland)
