Fox News tried to make Amsterdam look horrible. I want to move there now.

not at all, but what americans don't realise is that the majority of actual european wars (discounting WW/WW2) were started with religious motive, all the way back through the years.I'm really curious, Europeans. Do you get up in arms over someone wearing religious symbols and such?
To be honest, they are spot on, on just about everything.God bless the Netherlands <3
I love how they highlight everything out of complete context, to make it seem like the Netherlands is wrong in doing so. Seems like a pretty funny news channel if you ask me.
Yes and no, we have our religious racism. But everyone has that.I'm really curious, Europeans. Do you get up in arms over someone wearing religious symbols and such?
Well that's sort of what i mean, they don't present the reasons or justifications behind things, all they do is list all the policies as if they're somehow a long list of immoral decisions.To be honest, they are spot on, on just about everything.
They don't take it out of context, they just give it a negative spin.
And maybe blow some things up a little.
Marriage involving two or more people does happen in the Netherlands, though not in christian churches, nor official government bodies, so it's not considered official, but it does happen and is condoned.The suicide pill (or implying that that is even a matter of discussion) and marriages involving more than 2 people are bull****.
The other stuff is provided without rationale just to make it look bad. We're just pragmatic about our laws, there will always be prostitution, so might as well legalize and regulate it and prevent child prostitution and slave trade there.
If anything, our country is moving toward more moral conservatism rather than less: Amsterdam and many other cities are closing down much of their red light districts and our soft-drug policy is under constant European pressure and will probably be disbanded at some point.
I believe you Neitherlands man, you speak with full life experience.It's false that the religion is dying in the Netherlands, fox only looked at Amsterdam. Amsterdam is our capital city and has the most etnicity of the whole planet. Smaller cities and villages have still got many religious zealots. Just look at Sliedrecht, Bleskensgraaf and Streefkerk; those towns are full and full of christians.....
I like it that the Netherlands are free and open minded, gay marriage is positive and the drugs have to stay(never used it tough), but when something like that is forbidden , people start to use it illegaly. Just like in America for example , and then the problem is even getting worse....
It's funny, that even though it's legal to use certain substances here, our drug usages is amongst the lowest in Europe.I like it that the Netherlands are free and open minded, gay marriage is positive and the drugs have to stay(never used it tough), but when something like that is forbidden , people start to use it illegaly.
