News / Are the Polish embarrased by President Kaczynski? [30]

In Ireland, the church no longer influence government matters, although it does still influence a shrinking minority in the population.

Didn't the Polish gov. try to name Jesus "honorary King of Poland" ???

Can't remember where I heard this.

Study / Comparing Educational Standards in Poland vs other countries [88]

My cousins came to visit from Poland when I was in 7th grade here in the US. The youngest one was in 2nd and learning the same thing. :( I felt retarded.

That's why I want to go to a university in Poland.

I like smingus dyngus. Especially when my busty neighbor isn't expecting a drenching of cold water. :)

Life / Smingus-Dyngus - Polish tradition [155]

So U enjoy pissing people off yeah??

Then I make them laugh. No one can resist the Polish charm. Not even my teachers. Can't tell you the number of times I've gotten out of detentions because I can woo them over. :) They love me. Teacher's I haven't had yet know my name before I get to class. Even the nice ladies in the office and lunch ladies know me.

But that's beside the point. Wouldn't you like to pour a bucket of water on some stingy people who complain too much? I sure as hell would.

Life / Smingus-Dyngus - Polish tradition [155]

this ritual is going to catch on quick in the US

No it won't, it will get outlawed along with everything else that is safely fun. Someone will complain that it is a form of "assault". It's the sad truth, one American ruins it for the rest. :(

UK, Ireland / English, Irish, Scots: They're All One, Genes Suggest [69]

when people did not move from their birthplace

So when Jews were enslaved by Egypt, escaped to the promised land, were kicked out by the muslims, came to europe, went through the Holocoust, after spending all those years in Poland -speaking Polish- and now back in Isreal their language has changed minimally and you tell me that they can tell you what langauge they spoke After spending all thos years in different countries his DNA will always say Jerusalem?

exactly, migration happened, that shows in our genes. BUT language is another kettle of fish and not tied into it. Genes don't determine this.

I wans't disproving you. I was commenting on Peter's post:

ow on earth would a Chinese person get to Poland 1000 years ago? Get on a train?

How on earth would a Chinese person get to Poland 1000 years ago? Get on a train?

How did the Mongolians do it? How did the Huns get to Rome? The Russian expedition to get to America, which ended when they got to Alaska, started in the Eastern half of Russia.

Horses....in big groups

How on earth would a Chinese person get to Poland 1000 years ago? Get on a train?

How do you explain Christopher Columbus? The Native Americans? Cro-magnon originated in Africa and made his way to Europe, explain that one.

No, it isn't. Read the article

You guys are both right.

Although the Celtic immigrants may have been few in number, they spread their farming techniques and their language throughout Ireland and the western coast of Britain. Later immigrants from Northern Europe had more influence on the eastern and southern coasts. They, too, spread their language, a branch of German, but these invaders' numbers were also small compared with the local population.

Celtic and German.

But then the Normans under William the Conqueror came and French was introduced. (other groups came to the British Isles as well) So its a mix of languages.

Genealogy / Polish Silesians? [25]

Probably as much as a redneck to a city slicker. Just an accent. ( Or nothing at all, I grew up in the states, sadly :( )

Life / Indian moved to Poland [532]

How do you cope religion-wise?? I mean you are not Catholic right? I thought most Hindi people were buddhists? Are there any buddhist temples/churches in Poland??
