Why don't you assume that the Dutch are at least as smart as you are.
Their
state may not be organized the way the USA is. They may not think it
important
to have a separation of church and state. You are so incredibally
presumtuious
to think that way. Furthermore, they have a far better understanding
of the
issue than you apparently do. And lastly, there is no ADL for racists
to hide
behind in Holland.
