argue or living with an alcoholic

Of course, all kinds of different variants can and do occur. Nobody is in favour of any domestic
violence whether hetero or homo, alcohol or drug fuelled, wife or husband beating or destructive fits of rage. But home violence is far more common in shack-up arrangements than amongst married couples. Ask any Polish policemen rourtinely sent to investigate complaints against unruly neighbours. The konkubinat (cohabitating couple) is more often the source of violence than a married couple.

And yes, there may be super-polite kid-gloves divorces, where everything runs smoothly and no open altercations occur. Daddy -- the kids may be told -- has moved to another flat becuase he has to work a lot but he will visit you every weekend. But not all divorces end so ideally, do they? On balance, a non-pathological family with father and mother role models is far more conducive to child rearing and development.

Why do let's say 1.5% of the society

They do not bohter me personally. My concern is about this tiny minority's disrportionately large influence due to excessive, heavily bankrolled propaganda on the remaining 98% of society. Parents should be consutled if they want their 4-5-year old asked in preschool if he is hetero or homo or even whether they want their kids exposed to sexualisation of any kind at that age. Most people want to be mothers and fathers and not have some official form list them Parent A and Parent B. There is concern about putting innocent orphans (who have usually been enough already in their young lives) into the hands of adopting homosexuals for reasons already mentioned. Gay marriage cheapens marriage as a whole. Hetero shack-up culture also degrades marriage. And turning unwed mothers, something once shameful and to be avoided, into a "trendy" lifestlye option of singlehood? Just think what is the fate of kids living in such homes with a string of mummy's live-in lovers filing through. No, this is not just about gays. Easy divorce is another childhood crippler. Nothing is more traumatic to youngsters than a divorce, even the so-called civilised one, let alone those involving custody battles, questioned visitng rights, parental abductions, the kids' new "daddy", etc . But all these things are being promoted because there is big money to be made, and money rules the world. Those raking in the dough are not concerned about their negative impact on society as a whole.

still lag behind

Every totalitarianism has used similar phraseology. The Stalinists called such people out of step with the progressive march to the "workers' paradise" -- communism. Hitler was concerned about those who hadn't grasped the beauty and profundity of the Germanic peoples' "civilising mission". Today's PC and LGBTQ types say those who want to leave decent, normal lives are lagging behind full-blown libertinism.

The players may change, but the principle is always the same: every totalitarian culture demands that its agenda should be fully accepted. Or else!

News / Pope Francis' anti-Polish encyclical? Criticism of coal burning in Poland. [67]

There you go again

Time and again we have all seen and heard every garden variety leftie, greenie, commie, anarchist and other Palikot-style foaming-at-the-mouth anticlerical condeming the Church whenever it oversteps the bounds of religion. The cause shouldn't matter, because a matter of principle is invovled: French style laïcité, total separation of Church and state. As a good anarcho-lefty you should be incensed.

the best in the last 100 years

Every Pole (with the possible exception of the Palikot and Miller gangs) will disagree with you on that one. JP2 was not only a great ecumenist bringing together people of different faiths and invalidating the excommunication imposed on heretics, but his inspiration helped free the eastern half of the continent from the clutches of what our great President Reagan called "the evil empire".

Stick to the topic please

society has developed

If you regard legalising sodomy as an advancement, well there's no law against holding such a view. But some poster was ahistorically contending that mediaeval Catholic Poland tolerated sexual deviations because there were no state laws against them. The point is -- as any historian can confirm -- that the king and his court had far more important matters at hand than to concern themselves with a sickie chasing farm lads in some remote backwater. Such things were all dealt with locally.

So you're opposed to the Pope's latest encyclical?

No, I'm not, but you should be. People of your political coloration are constantly condemning the Church for sticking its nose in political or public affairs rather than sticking to its "religious superstitions" and rituals.

run out of town on a dungcart

One notable exception was if the offender was generally regarded as the village idiot, he could get away with a lot more. So, when somone like that known to do the job on a goat, pig or another male appeared, people would just knowingly wink at each other or tap their foreheads.

Does anyone now?

Words such as homosexual and gay are rather recent constructs. The term sodomy is much older and was certainly known to mediaval chroniclers and clergy (the few literate people around at that time), but it is doubtful whether the average Polish villager of that epoch would have been familiar with it. Some very explicit and earthy peasant term would have been the most likely.

renewables.

Doing away or cutting back on fossil fews certainly makes sense, but what's wrong with promoting renewables whilst decreasing consumption. Excessive manufacturing and the recycling of growing mountains of discarded packaging, assorted plastics, throw-away e-gadgetry, etc. are energy-consuming and are robbing the planet no matter how you slice it. And shouldn't greedy, hedonistic Westerners cut back a bit and spread at least some of the goods around to the have-nots?

huge increase in renewables.

If the entire Baltic coast (Poland's, of course) was peppered wtih wind farms, how much power would that generate? What about watermills - in some places they can power an entire village, I hear. Fortunate are they who benefit from hydroelectric energy, but that's a topographic matter.

Has anyone advocated cutting back on power consumption. If more people used manual lawn mowers and coffee mills and drove smaller cars (anything over 800 cc should be punitively taxed) that would make a difference. And bought less of the Made in China junk which is largely throw-away clutter. The energy needed to recycle the excess is staggering.

Jews are so powerful and influential

quote edited
What then is your reason why Jews are so powerful and influential? Remember there's only about 15 mln of them world-wide! That would be good to know so Poles could try to be more like them.

Also, the head of the Fed has always been a member of the "chosen people". Now it's a bloke named Bernanke or something like that.

Coal is obsolete

There was talk some time ago about the gasification of coal which produced a clean-burning fuel and was heralded as a great technological brearkthrough. Anyone know why we aren't hearring about that anymoro. Are the costs prohibitive or what?

Full of optimism...not anti-Polish.

Yes, a Christian is optimistic by nature. It is only the decadent anarcho-leftist-utopianist underminers, wreckers, and destroyers that pose a threat to society and instil pessimism in decent people.

I never said the encyclial was anti-Polish but that there are those who regard it as such and backed it up with a quote.

News / Regain banking assets - new Polish finance minister supports privatisation in Poland. Corruption? [33]

Finally what appears to be a sensible appointment by PM Kopacz. The PO has been following in the footsteps of the "sell off everything in sight" philosophy of Balcerowicz, greedily eyeing the privatization revenues that will enrich government coffers. The new finance minister Andrzej Czerwiński supports the plans to buy back some of Poland's banks by PZU, eastern Europe's biggest insurer.

The plans are to create a major home-grown bank that can challenge the local businesses of major foreign lenders such as CitiHandlowy, ING , Santander and UniCredit.

The reason Jews are so powerful and influential is that they own the banks in many parts of the world. Not many Poles know that the US has no true central bank. The Federal Reserve is a consortium of nine private, Jewish-linked banks. They must be doing something right since the US constitutes to be the world's biggest economy.

gays cannot adopt

And that is as it should be if we ask the simple question:
Who is more important: homos or heteros, men or women? None of them!

THE MOST IMPORTANT ARE THE KIDS who have their whole life ahead of them. It is up to the adult community to make that childhood safe, stable and rewarding. Frequently cited reasons why homosexual couples are ill-suited to adopt and raise orphans include:

**lack of father and mother role models (distorted sexual identity)
**relationships of short averąge duration (early family breka-up)
**promiscuity (third-party liaisons)
** high level of substance abuse (alcohol, drugs, nicotine)
**high level of domestic violence
**sexual abuse threat to adopted adolescents.

If this issue does not interest you, simply ignore it. If it does, do some exploring in search of evidence to either confirm or disavow it.

Pope is still conservative

Thank goodness for that! Conservative means defending the tried, tested, proven and time-honoured rather than throwing the baby out with the bath water, avoiding change for change sake and not plunging headlong into unproven off-the-wall novelties.

PiS and two small allied parties have submitted a proposal to the Sejm to exempt those earning less than 12,000 złotys a year from paying income tax. As every PF-er knows, that is a starvation income for one person and many of those try ot support families on that amount. PiS is always thinking about the little guy. PO brown-noses the well-to-do who can always be counted on for kickbacks.

News / Pope Francis' anti-Polish encyclical? Criticism of coal burning in Poland. [67]

In his latest encyclical, leaked to the media this week, Pope Francis has spoken out on ecological issues, specifically the harm done to the environment by burning coal. Poland relies heavily on coal for heating and energy so the encyclical has been seen by some as an anti-coal or even anti-Polish declaration.

It'll be interesting to see if the liberal leftists, who oppose the Church's involvement in public affairs, will condemn the pope for meddling in politics and tell him to stick to religion. I doubt it, because the hypocrites do so only when churchmen speak out against prenatal infanticide, divorce and couples living in sin.

It surely will if the bastard doesn't come up with a programme. That's what I hear from Poles asked about him.Just being for single-mandate districts and calling himself anti-systemic (anti-establishment?) is hardly enough.

are more usual in

I forgot substance abuse -- also higher in homo liaisons.

The U Chicago article it links to is working

I am wel aware of the fact that some private sites have included the Bell and Weinberg research and those are impervious to the LGBTQ censorship brigade without the consent of the owners. But the original academic research is easy enough to deal with - just visit the academics and intimidate them a bit with the homophobe card and they'll retract everything, add disclaimers or whatever.

Meanwhile, here's some more information for you to hone your vitriol on and find clever ways to undermine, debunk and ridicule. The theme: Harry and homos are perfect and without blame!

The Sexual Organization of the City, University of Chicago sociologist Edward Laumann argues that "typical gay city inhabitants spend most of their adult lives in 'transactional' relationships, or short-term commitments of less than six months."[5]

A study of homosexual men in the Netherlands published in the journal AIDS found that the "duration of steady partnerships" was 1.5 years.[6]

In his study of male homosexuality in Western Sexuality: Practice and Precept in Past and Present Times, Pollak found that "few homosexual relationships last longer than two years, with many men reporting hundreds of lifetime partners."[7]

out of touch with the real world

Didn't there used ot be a culture seciton on PF? Since there isn't one now and you are PF's expert on most everything, could you give a breif background or review of Kukiz's music. Genres, themes, popularity, hit records, etc.

The only thing I recall about him was his pastiche of a Catholic hymn "ZChN już się zbliża" in the early '90s. He was poking fun at the Christian National Union (party) of which Niesiołowski (now PO's bullterrier) was a leading activist.

prove your assertion!

Gay promiscuity is a key issue when it comes to adoptions because unstable households, multiple partners, desertions, doemstic violence, etc. are not the kind of climate orphans (who have usually already gone through a lot in their young lives) should be subjected to.

So Google: gay promiscuity and the following headings apppear:

conservapedia.com/Homosexuality_and_promiscuity

I am familiar with the findings because it was online several years ago. But now when you click on it you get:

Strona internetowa jest niedostępna

But the following entry is fully googlable -- plenty of facts and figures, nothing edited or cnesored.

Concerning homosexuality and promiscuity, in 2004 the Baptist Press reported the following: "A new study by a group of University of Chicago researchers ...

Why? Because of the source which can always be dismissed as a bunch of Bible-thumping nuttters.

This is hardly the only example where "Strona internetowa jest niedostępna" appears. These are all things that have been "pulled" because they do not fit the BIG LIE: gays are just like everyone else!

On the contrary, that just shows the cleverness of LGBTQ propaganda. All the Family Research Councils, Christian-based websites and neo-fascist extremists REMAIN ONLINE. What HAS BEEN REMOVED are the serious, thoughtful, scholarly analyses full of facts, footnotes and figures. That way the all-pervasive altersexual popaganda machine is trying to show that only nutters see anything negative in the altersexual movement. This can easily be proved.

You forget the stuff being "pulled" off the net. Anything not in agreement with the all-pervasive LGBTQ agenda is either removed or provided with disclaimers to weaken the impact of evidence unfavourable to homosexuals. Probably all the data you have presented have been censored or doctored over the past decade.

Sexual-orientation bias

Self-serving figures about how the poor innocent homos are being beaten up...how about some comparative domestic violence stats for:
**married heterosexual families
**unamarried heterosexual couples
**male homosexual households
**lesbian households

ame-sex relationships have excellent implication

Child rearing affects everyone living in a domicile with children present. Kids are known to walk in on normal opposite-sex parents and that's bad anough, but what about when they see male Parent A sodomising male Parent B? Would you want your kids to watch that?
