      Fun fact, Estonians are still one of the most religious people among non Christian dominant countries in the world, not many understand it themselves, we may not be very Christian but we have alot of religious beliefs and understandings

      Most Christians in Estonia are descendants of Russian occupiers and colonists. In their War of Independence in 1918, Estonians defeated the German invaders and Russian troops who had oppressed us here for centuries. This also destroyed compulsory baptism and membership in Christian churches.

      Are Estonians atheists then? No, most Estonians are nature-believers, it's like the nature-Shinto of the Japanese, or the Native Americans, we have our own gods such as Taara (Thor), Ukun (Odin) and a good number of those who are called elven in Western mythologies

      Most Estonians abandoned Christianity after the War of Independence. We are not Christians because of the Soviet occupation – for example, Lithuania – where over 90 percent of Christians are, also suffered from occupation
