I note that the most atheistic countries (e.g. Russia and Sweden) are either too obsessed with survival or with self-expression. From there, I conclude that atheists are just idolators, but their respective gods are meta-idols; nothing as gauche as a sculpture or money.

  2. Portugal clusters with other Latin American nations, which are typically more Traditional than Secular, and more Self-expressive than Survivalist. It actually lies halfway between Venezuela and Spain.
