Um, I wish you the best of luck with it
However-the realist in me sees it flopping. As far as I know (and you will know more on this then me) the media and the government as well as the liberal upper classes in Scandinavian countries (in particular Sweden and Denmark) try exceptionally hard to avoid hurting Muslim's feelings in any way and they seem to have a "leave them completely alone and we won't get any riots this week" approach. They have had many problems over the last few years with disharmonious and upset Middle Eastern youths causing trouble-and thus the need to not try to upset them. Any encouragement of open thinking and individualism among Muslim communities-who really have a bee in their bonnet about outsiders "imposing" such values on them might stir trouble and thus newspapers might not like it at all.
That's just how I see things panning out
In my honest and humble opinion though if you think it has a chance-go for it! But I perceive it as a lesson in futility.
Sorry for my brutality.
