Sweden is according to a lot of scientific research the least religious country in the world. Research has shown that 46-85% of the inhabitants does not believe in God depending on which question was asked. There is no mandatory church in Sweden any longer. Before around 2000 the Lutheran Church of Sweden was the official church in Sweden. About 83% of the population are members of the church but a vast majority states that it is only for the reasons that you are not allowed to marry in a church if you are not a member and a burial is a lot cheaper and more easily administered if you are a member of the church. A small amount of the collected tax goes to a burial fund in the Church of Sweden if you are a member. There is no education in Christianity in Sweden. All religions are treated equal in school and the school subject "Religion" is about all religious belief. However, by the end of the summer semester in schoools the classes goes to the church but the religious part of the ceremony has been made much less obvious. Singing a few traditional religious songs is the only religious part of the ceremony in most schools. However, there are parts of Sweden with a very high percentage of religious belief. The most religious parts of Sweden is the county of Småland and the most religious city the city of Jönköping in Småland, the coast near Gothenburg to the Norway border has a lot of different churches and high attendance, as well as the area around the city of Örebro. Even in many fishing villages along the southern coast there area lot of different churches.

Is there a contradiction between religious freedom and duty of citizen to defend its country?
There can be a perceived contradiction between religious freedom and a citizen's duty to defend their country, particularly if a person's religious beliefs conflict with military service or national defense actions. For example, pacifist religions may oppose violence, creating a moral dilemma for adherents when conscription or military action is required. However, many societies seek to balance these responsibilities by allowing exemptions or alternative service options for those whose beliefs prevent them from participating in armed conflict. Ultimately, the resolution of this tension often depends on the legal and cultural context of a given country.

Unitarians (and Unitarian Universalists) are primarily characterized by an openness to new ideas, to freedom belief, and to the use of reason in religion.

A religious fundamentalist or religious literalist would thus be a good candidate for an opposite to a Unitarian.
