Yes, it is my apologies...I was checking out Switzerland as a possible re-location place for my wife and I. One of the websites I went to made that claim. They are rated more free than we are now...and they do have a substantial Christian population...

well, they are free, but they HAD a substantial Christian population -- atheism is on the rise, especially in the cities like Zurich, Geneva etc.

they have a lot of freedoms, but with that, there is responsibility -- the communities take an interest in ensuring that their members care for each other -- like the joke that you can't flush the loo between 10pm and 6 am.

Also, if you are an immigrant to one of the smaller cantons, you need to get the entire canton to vote to say they are ok with you joining. And this is by a show of hands, not a secret ballot.

So, true libertarian
