| 520 | |a In this article, we utilize theories on nominal Christianity and stickiness to analyze 30 qualitative interviews collected in Denmark as part of an international research project investigating nonbelief. We analyze the data with the aim of answering the following tripartite research question: how do the participants conceptualize Danish culture and values? How do they speak about Folkekirken (the Danish Folk Church) when discussing Danish culture? And to what degree do they draw parallels between cultural Christianity and Danishness? In our analysis we highlight two main themes. First, we present how the participants perceive Folkekirken as a facilitator of culture and tradition rather than of religion; and second, we analyze the participantsʼ notions of national identity and cultural Christianity and find that their perceptions of Danish values are linked to their conceptions of cultural Christianity. We conclude that analysis of nonreligion in Denmark must take the role of Folkekirken and the particularity of Danish culture into account to acquire sufficient depth and accuracy. | ||
