20. please point out the inaccuracies
"Your glib tone, and your innaccuracies suggest a rather intolerant
view of other cultures, and of course you'll see your own views
reflected whilst travelling about."

That's a rather silly statement, considering that the US and the EU basically share the same culture, and certainly come from a common culture.

"Germany very much recognizes freedom of speech, and you can't
make liabellous statements in the british media, as slandering
someone denies them the right to their honourable reputation which
is a human right."

Germany most certainly does not recognize freedom of speech, or at least does not allow their citizens to practice it. In the UK, you can be sued for making truthful statements.

I find the idea that the EU has a superior culture to our because they are less religious to be laughable - you only need to look at the USSR to see that lack of religion does not a decent society make.
