News / What is the future of Catholic church in Poland. [154]

An atheist woman in Warsaw sent her child to a Jewish school because she didn't want her child neither to be taught religion nor to be pointed out as 'the ones who doesn't attend religion'.

Some people are so short-sighted, they prevent their kids to learn about Catholicism which is important part of Polish culture.

This is slowly happening already. At the moment people are healthily cynical about the moral teaching, next, the generation who lived so long with communism will die out, and slowly people will start to question and reject the core mythology of Christianity.

Leftist-controlled mainstream media doing much in this direction. They permanently with satisfaction publish church attendance which is supposed to decrease slowly. People love to be considered 'trendy', they are easy to manipulate and here even evolution wont help. When majority will reject Christian morality, TV stupidities will be imposed instead. If you consider that intellectual level represented by TV channels decreasing about proportionally to technological progress then one doesn't need to be a genius to predict pathetic and fully deserved collapse of such civilization. Bunch of fools lead either by fools or people who care only about their particular short-sighted interest simply cannot succeed.

First, we need to decide which god is being rejected.

No, firstly one need to decide whether he/she believe in God at all. Later figure out or chose some imagine of God. Second is a logical consequence of the first.

Lukasz:

Are atheists better than religous people ?

yes

What a nonsense, believer or an atheist, such self-declaration don't tell you much. I'm surprised that you did not figure out this yet, do you live in the desert?

I say its right that these girls are not let wear veils. I am in favour of modest dressings...i dislike people naked and running around myself. But whats the veil business?

I am in favour of this French move.

You are against personal freedom. I fully respect the right of private school to dictate dressing to students. However public schools this is something different, this is not up to politicians to tell people how they should dress!

even if he is a Polish man who got a top chair in the Vatican. Due to the... certain reasons.

What reasons?

I have a masters in Theology.

Just few days ago, I discussed with a Pole who claimed that he studied international affairs. He did not know basic facts about Ukraine...

What makes you think that history will judge religion well?

Who is 'history'? and why his/her opinion is so important?

Church is against abortion euthanasia and against death penalty human is human

... you calim to be expert but you don't have basic knowledge.

This is typical opponent of the CC.

Regardless of the failed policies of the republican administrations of recent years, the race for the presidency is deadlocked simply because so many will vote for the candidate who will be more likely to appoint a conservative judge to the Supreme Court, so the chances to overturn Roe v. Wade will improve in future years.

Perhaps the Republican Party is not the best choice to accomplish this goal, however at least intention is good. If you are so worried then support this cause as well and then those hated Republican wont gather any undeserved support.

News / Are we going in this direction - Orwell 1984 [11]

This involvement has been minimized and this what indeed makes animals out of people.

Well said.

This is my primary reason to oppose the EU. However I oppose also bureaucrats in Poland itself. People often complain about 'upcoming Orwell' but somehow refuse to acknowledge the origin of this danger. No matter behind what mask bureaucracy is hiding, European, national, Slavic or worldwide people should refuse to tolerate their actions. Thus if even all parliamentary parties seems to be satisfied with bureaucracy, people should search for proper candidates outside of mainstream. Perhaps this is naive to believe that politically illiterate majority of electorate suddenly would find out what is wrong, however at least strong minority should put some pressure on establishment.

News / Are Christians prosecuted in Poland (and Europe in general)? [53]

And who is behind France? Right....those devious Germans! It's all their fault I tell ya!

No, since French revolution the left gained a lot influence in this country. They wish to see the EU to be like France. They gained ideological brothers in other countries and steadily building their pathetic project.

Those nationally minded Germans whom think that their state duo to the largest size dict conditions to all others are delusional. This is primary project of the French left (which include also UMP).

History / Why we talk about Nazis not Germans [138]

I can understand those who voted for him!

This is very simple. People vote for socialists because they have little idea about politics and this camp always promise them everything what is possible. When socialism collapsing again and again they say that this is fault of certain 'bad people' and ideology is OK. In effect this insanity goes on and on.

I wrote this here many times. The EU is and the SU was run by bureaucracy represented by commissioners. These are closely related systems, just two different styles. Both regimes organize elections but in fact this have not any impact on policies of political establishment.

Famous Russian dissident based in the UK, I mean Vladimir Bukovsky wrote even book about this issue,

Lesser lests agree that German Nazis (national socialists) is better term.

German National Socialist is accurate. People reading this would be clearly informed that t not all Germans are to blame, just those nationalist socialists.

Today, 12:41 Report #31

Groups like Honor popularised it. Actually, many skinheads in Poland follow this movement.

Sorry, these people are not German.

They are marginal minority. Anyway, they are not responsible for WWII.

History / Only two countries in Europe did not accept XVIIIc partitions of Poland.. [54]

Lukasz, you mix private initiatives with government policies. I'm advanced in reading Dmowski book in which he widely write about secrets of diplomatic policies before, during and after WWI. Those countries which supported Poland regaining independence did it only because their interests were similar. However some of these countries prevented reborn Poland to be larger because such development would not be similar with their interests.

Leadership representing serious countries think in political categories. Churchill if I recall correctly made famous comment about this issue.

I consider EU Commissioners to be parasites like Soviet Commissioners earlier. So, I definitely don't sympathize with Christian leaning socialists, still I think that this was great scandal showing only how intolerant is EU leftist establishment. They refuse to cooperate even with socialists if they don't hide their Christian faith. Imagine how those bureaucrats must hate people like myself! :)

I should add that primarily France is to blame for Buttiglione case.

Why we talk about Nazis not Germans

Sure, Germany started this war and this should be mentioned clearly in various publications.

However, this "Nazi" name is even more perfidious. This is clearly effect of the Socialist Internationale propaganda. People don't really know what it means and later you can often see ignorant comments that they were 'rightists'. While this is obvious that National Socialism have nothing do to with right-wing policies. So, dear socialists, please don't hide this 'little' fact from the history of socialist movement.

News / Women's average earnings as a percentage of men's. Poland's near top. [50]

you are being being funny in your reasoning and haven't produced any economic explanation for why women make less, except for
lesser:

Of course this is not any discrimination, mostly value of works dominated by men is higher than value of works dominated by women

Let concentrate on workers without higher education. They consist the vast majority and they are the major factor which create Lukasz's table. What is the most typical job hold by a man? Something in building industry. Women cannot compete here duo to physical weakness. Here always some specific skills are needed thus people with experience are valued. Physical power and specific skills increase their wages.

What is the most popular among women? Saleswoman in different kind of shops. This job is not so physical, neither special skills are needed. Thus they most likely being offered a minimum wage.

A lazy man who decide to work as a unqualified safeguard in supermarket earn minimum wage for the same reason. This is not about sex.

Acctualy Lesser your view on female role in society is outdated.

I'm talking about some economic facts and not about women role in the society.

I also don't claim that in some areas monetary value of women work cannot be higher than average for men. In the job market they are only workers, their sex is not important in vast majority of cases. (exceptions? for example somebody searching for woman or male models) Unless interference of socialist regulations, this may change much for worse.

Miranda, when I write about economy you provide only conspiracy theory. Hard to discuss about beliefs, some other think that the Jews control cash and because of this 'everything'. I rather don't waste my time to convince them.

heheh Lessers political fraction (UPR) is famous from having 0,5 % support and and 80% of members are bachelor

People indeed don't like to hear true. As far as politics in concentrated this is better to be defeated together with smart people than to win together with fools.

Anyway, how this is related to the topic? Do you question something that I wrote here? Or you are just upset that I pointed out that this table is inaccurate?

It is time to change the political orientation Lesser.

I'm not any party loyalist. I support what is right and not what is popular. After all if my option lose primary those who voted for populist parties will face the consequences. I will have enough of cash anyway.

News / Women's average earnings as a percentage of men's. Poland's near top. [50]

pay equality is when both sexes get paid the same money for performing the same job. You obviously confused it with something else.

This is not about sexes. You refuse to accept that people performing the same job might have different skills, some are better than other. Thus smart employer is able to notice this difference and pay them different money as well.

Demagogy of feminist agenda showing this case in completely false light, to be conflict of interests between men and women.

lesser:

and causing lack of motivation among workers.

how so? Please explain.

Because wages don't depend from their effort. Gaining and improving skills is not necessary, they wont earn neither less or more.

it is because they are getting underpaid nor because of pay equality

Skilled workers are underpaid because their cash go to their unskilled colleagues to 'sponsor' pay equality.

did you tell that to your wife or your girlfriend or your mother? how did they react?

Neither myself or them feel necessary to talk about this issue. This is just about economy, if somebody deny this is not my problem unless too many people share such views. Remember that I write only about money, while women do many things that cannot be estimated by money.

Polish statistics are not accurate. Many men earn officially only minimum wages, while many women in fact earn minimum wages. Of course this is not any discrimination, mostly value of works dominated by men is higher than value of works dominated by women. Because of natural talents and preferences men and women rarely hold similar jobs.

it is called pay equality

This is always dream of unskilled workers.

It is practiced mostly in public sector (teachers, nurses, etc) and causing lack of motivation among workers. This is one of the reasons why quality of public sector is so poor like in education and health-care nearly elsewhere.

History / Responsibility for Murder of Catholic Poles during WWII ? [172]

You composed the title wrongly, it should have said "who killed most Poles during WW 2" and the answer is tricky since i dont consider jewish citizens of Poland as Poles, i'd say Russians killed more though not in direct executions but rather by stuffing people in siberian gulags.

In your opinion commies killed more than 3 million?

i dont consider jewish citizens of Poland as Poles

In this case, this is not important what you think. This is important how they considered themselves.

that's not helpful.

Ukrainains, Lithuanians, Jews, Slovaks, to mention few.

News / Donald Tusk - the worst PM of 3rd RP. [79]

At least it is logic.

If you would write that you are against democracy, then I would not comment. I respect honesty. What I dislike is when somebody claim to be democrat and later claim that public opinion is too ignorant to vote on some issues. This is hypocrisy because this is obvious that public opinion is incompetent in general.

yours is just idealistic fantasy as is many of your anti-European claptrap.

Either you don't really read my posts or confuse the EU with Europe. Actually the EU is cancer of Europe and fully deserve to be criticized. Somehow I don't remember you questioning my criticism of the EU on any certain issues.

Also, I'm not democratic apologist for sure, even opposite. I just wonder how so many "democrats" are unable to notice how Switzerland works. Just amazing.

You are a dinosaur lessor...... now why don’t you run along and be a good boy and fossilise.

This is ad-personam, I shouldn't even comment. However even here you are wrong, nothing what I say was practiced in full scale in the past. This is future, although probably fossilise European politicians will be the last to acknowledge that socialism don't work.

They play the electorate to suit their own means and achieve their own goals.

Like 99& of political establishment.

This decision cannot be made by the public who have no understanding of economics and its only intention is to raise the profile of Lech Kaczynski by holding the referendum at the same time as the Presidential election.

First of all, to propose Euro is stupid as I mentioned earlier in other threads. While the public hardly understand anything serious, your logic leads us even more away from democracy from where we stand.

Useful politician would consider his PM post to be a just tool which help him to achieve successful state. Such person would put equality mark between successful state and personal goal.

This is such a sad thread to even think of this kind of thing going on Is it a problem in Poland?

Simply people in mass media know that many people listen such idiotic stories, thus they provide them these stories. If number of deviants raising, this is only because media coverage.

While Tusk apparently have new PR tactic. Think, how many people thought that he demands real castration for pedophiles. One should write that he mentioned aside that 'death penalty is not far from his views' and only international obligations force them to abandon this idea. On some issues people in Poland have some common sense, thus these comments could increase his popularity.

You don't earn money.EU subsidizes your economy.

This is exaggeration. Polish economy is far from what it should be, because highly negative influence of Polish bureaucracy. Currently the EU impose on us even more bureaucrats, sending regulations that cannot be disputed in Poland or in any other member country. This is parasite organization which only wasting cash of European taxpayers.

As far as subsidies are concentrated. To the large extend this is Brussels propaganda. (the EU help for fishery is a great example) Media often reports how much of cash Polish bureaucracy may receive from Brussels. Later from time to time the say that something like 10% were really taken. They always fail to mention that Poland gives its share to the EU as well. No summary reports are published to verify how it is in fact.

If Poland would reform itself, it would develop much faster than today. One should mention here that 'old members' don't develop at all, they are stuck in stagnation. While some Asian countries develop nicely, why on earth they don't want to establish "European model"?
