Denmark was recently declared to have the world's happiest population.

There. the churches have little influence, men and women are treated as equals and the women are free to make decisions for themselves.

An American social scientist, Phil, Zuckerman wrote a book detailing his experiences and many of the interviews he conducted while living for a year in Arhus a city of nearly 300,000. The book is well work reading.

After being in the city for some days he realised that he had not seen any police presence. He kept count and it was 35 dyas before he saw his first police officer.

To illustrate the difference between Denmark and the USA Zuckerman stated that not long after hes return to California, a church-going friend "couldn't wait" to show him the new handgun.

What is the value of women?

About $760,000 if I've got the currency conversion right. The skin is worth about $35 if you charged the same as cowhide. Hair can fetch $5-$9 per ounce depending on it's length for wigmakers. Muscular tissue is all but worthless but could probably be sold as pet meat; fans of 'Fight Club' will appreciate the value of adipose tissue. The transplantable organs would be the most valuable parts: corneas would be worth about $6,740; the heart $67,000; kidneys between $17,000-$33,000; lungs about $126,000 etc.

If you sold to the highest bidders you could make a killing.

Spindoc,

Shaggy Dog does not run down any trails these days, a fast hobble at best.

RandomGuy I must say that I don't agree with your basic asumptions. Women as in Garden of Eden are "the root of all evil" as the saying goes. The Bible has that right and for a good reason. All current religious leaders lament that no one wants to talk about the current child abuse scandals. "mum is the word". Men WANT to treat women like slaves, but women DO treat men like cattle.

Foyle, Denmark sounds like my sort of place. : )
No wonder Princess Mary looks so happy in all her photos!

Random Guy, I think you wrote exactly what you wanted to convey, but are now back-peddling because it doesn't sound too good for women in our modern, secular society to reconsider moving back in time.

Hasbeen, you are a disgrace as usual, but I'll bite...
Even way back in the good ol' days of your youth, it still took two people to tango and produce a baby, both in and out of 'wedlock'.

If they did this before marriage back then, surely BOTH boy and girl should have been considered immoral?
If not, why not?

Foyle,
Doesn't the situation in Denmark back up my argument about mentality ?
