I'm from Finland.

Just want to say my opinion about this. I don't belive that difference is so big, but I understand why some americans would understand it that way

Explanation follows :)

I think that religion is more private thing here in Finland than in U.S.A

People just don't want to talk about it with strangers.

More 80% of finnish are members of Finnis lutherian church

Religion is totally private thing like sex ;)

And one thing is allso that finnish people don't like to smalltalk/chitchat, we consider it to bullshit
