Of course, that's over-simplifying it, but they wouldn't have the label of 'conservative' if they let society run as wild as a 1970 pornstar's pubic hair.

I needed a good belly laugh today,(the pubic hair analogy not the tree, the tree analogy is a good representation). THANK YOU.
As a believer in a country's right to sovereignity, I find if that is how the Norwegian people vote than that is how they choose to run their country. I, as an American, may not understand nor believe that it is right, BUT it is Norway's right to do. Our country has no right to dictate how another runs itself (so long as they are not imprisoning and killing Muslims), especially if that is how the majority of Norwegians feel and vote.
We may view that, much the same as Norway may think us trying to pass laws to ban gay marriage is promoting hate.
However, I do believe that they are now opening themselves to terrorism and hatred from a huge portion of the world's population. So they do need to keep that in mind.
