Czech Paradox: The Nation of Atheists Has a ‘Christian Government’

  1. Many Czechs are religious or believe in “something”, but majority certainly doesn’t like organized religion as institution or some kind of authority. So it’s actually not that strange.

  2. Seems to be working as intended then, why would atheists care about the religion of others? that’s what religious people do.

  3. From what I’ve seen in this ‘nation of atheists’ beliefs in horoscopes, witches and fortune telling and things like that are quite widespread. So Czechs maybe aren’t particularly Christian, but they believe in “something”.

  4. Not that uncommon. Austria is also mostly non-corrupt and still consistently votes in corrupt people.

  5. So because half of cabinet consists of members of Christian church, we have Christian government? That’s ridiculous.

    Edit: Also Halík shouldn’t be listened to. Atheism is lack of belief in deities and “dogmatic atheist” is not a thing.

  6. in Bulgaria, yesterday we had anti-vax protest promoted by one of the party in the parliament. Turned out half of their members are vaccinated. When asked they reply “i did it to protect my family”.
