Life / How could things have gone so wrong (Poland church dress code) [195]

People who know nothing about respect are from PiS! :

Is that a fact? I don't know, I'm not from PiS, but you said a few months ago that you are from PO, and I can only say that people from PO are either fools, traitors or trash, or any given combination of those three.

"bzibzioh"-Please read the Polish historian's book of "Jan Gross".

He is not a Polish historian but an American liar or Jewish whichever please you more, but definitely he is not Polish historian.

History / The smallest Poland ever? [115]

Gotta love the concept of a Pole using Russian planes to invade a sovereign country.

Why ? I fail to see a point you trying to make, possibly because its matters only to your Brit mind propelled by your education.

You just make a wrong move and you will lose your independence altogether.

Stop shaking in your boots Nat, Poland is not going to invade anybody in foreseeable future.

hey have a German past - so what

next queston - should they belong to German state ?
Answer no - because of WWII and German's behaviour towards Poland and Poles - to much to get away lightly.Also there is a few minor points, not tonight

Life / How could things have gone so wrong (Poland church dress code) [195]

The Pharisees believed this, during times of fasting they would paint their faces white to show everyone they fast. Christ heavily criticised this. Did he have a right to do it??? Christ didnt like it and he spoke out about it. Nobody forced Christ to teach against the Pharisees, he chose to do it.

The Pharisees did not believe this, they had believed in themselves being better and holy because of all those small rules they abhorred to; Christ criticised their shallow beliefs and self-righteousness.

In the case of dress code nobody is deemed better or more holy,if dressing better attending a mass, it has nothing to do with religion or being a good Christian, it is simply about respect.

simples :)

Human being express himself in many ways, one of which is a way he/she dresses. Expecting proper dress from people attending mass is only understandable, if somebody doesn't like it I can say only one thing - nobody is forcing you to go there, but if you do - pay respect and dress properly.

@Ironside - you're dodging my quesion

No, I'm simply not answering personal questions on the Internet.

I don't remember any Poles here admitting freely from the start the big part that the Germans played in these now polish lands

Sure they do, plenty.

Kyiv is more Russian. The language of the streets there is Russian, not Ukrainian.

If Kiev is Russian there is no future for Ukrainians.

As for "what culture", perhaps you could aquaint yourself with the works of Taras Shevchenko to start with?

I see that you are expert on Ukraine, well, well ...... where he was born - check.
Ще як були ми козаками,

А унії не чуть було,

Отам-то весело жилось!

Братались з вольними ляхами,

Пишались вольними степами,

В садах кохалися, цвіли,

Неначе лілії, дівчата.

Пишалася синами мати,

Синами вольними... Росли,

History / The smallest Poland ever? [115]

I'm asking because it is necessity for Poland to stop our country from dying out from both
low birthrate and mass emmigration.

Sure, and I have never said differently, first things first , but then there would be time for fixing few lose ends, we can as well start consider that as an option.

Do you think Lithuanians are so eager
to give their capital city to Poland?

Lithuanian are a small fish, I don't say that we should get Wilno, only if they will continue discriminate against Poles.

Thinking ahead is precisely what I do.

Not far enough, and you are jumping at shadows.

I imagine, seeing as they consider L'viv to be the home of Ukrainan culture

What culture?.....anyhow Ukraine has Kiev.

History / The smallest Poland ever? [115]

just to satisfy someone's sick fantasies of "Greater
Poland".

Its not about fantasies, it is about necessity not for me but for Poland.

I'm simply not willing to die,

What is with that obsession of yours with wars, maybe there will be peaceful solution.

that is precisely my plan, and do you know why?

Yes, I know because you think only about yourself and your own cosy place you have nested for yourself, and secondly you don't think ahead.

bout people ranting that "Lwów should belong to Poland

I'm not ranting, just saying.

It's guys like me, who just want to be happy with their families and enjoy their work, who have to die
in the mud with feckin bayonettes between our ribs, whilst the bigmouths are usually the first to run
for their lives.

See, you getting excited with your imagination running wild, hard to discus with somebody's fears.

Just a logical conclusion.

Just a logical conclusion.

Eh? Your statement is anything but logical.

Sure... :)

Nay, you are right, we on the PF are conspiring to take over the world.

Now let's discuss whether we should partition Poland again.

That would be cruel and immoral, nobody is advertising here destruction of another country, well maybe with exceptions of Kosovo, but there is Albania for Albanians.

and I'm not impressed.

Well, maybe not all is rosy but at last Wroclaw was rebuild after WWII destruction by Poles.

the last thing we need now is opening the Pandora's box by trying to redraw borders in Europe again.

So, you are willing to lie about real state of affairs to conserve status quo?
Anyhow, nothing is eternal on this Earth, I think that your little plan to stay low and don't offend anyone is doomed, things doesn't work like that not for country's anyway! And Poland need a plan, a good plan to regain its interdependence.

so I can be a PC preacher too,

That is not the point - point is that only Wroclaw is in good hands and you know it.Why are you saying different then eh?

Looks like Moania has hacked Ironside's account.

gee.... its old .....I guess fun is over...
Monia, he is not a Jew, he volunteer to be one but they said nay, we don't want that shmondack :)

A European

Meaning?
As for borders nobody is redrawing borders here or in Poland, we are only discussing things.

History / Poland's 1945 - 1989 under communism or during socialism? [65]

Just out of curiosity. Ironside how old are you?

Guess ..

Quite the contrary, if they had been involved in implementing soviet rule, we would be quoting ' during communism'

You are mistaken, I have never heard expression "during socialism" its odd, on the contrary "during communism" is being used commonly, ask Seanus if you don't believe me.

Maybe you are hiding a dark secret.

I would rather bet on your wife's family hiding dark secrets.

History / The smallest Poland ever? [115]

Lwow,Wilno,Grodno and few other Polish towns will belong to Poland again (like half of respectfully Belarus,Lithuania and Ukraine).Land given to Poland in the West in 1945 is a rightfull compensation for Germany's war crimes and a border with Germany is non negotiable but in the East Poland has to try to restore pre 1939 borders.

That is sentiment I share.

However, both cities are in good hands now

You must be kidding, or worse you are PC preacher.

even settle there, if they wish so

Common, who is saying this? The Jew whom they do not want in Israel, that funny.

My Wife refers to the period as 'during socialism'

It only means that your wife's family was deeply involved in implementing soviet rule in Poland. Some of that has been rubbed on you as we had witnessed on PF.

Such as them I call traitors who should be lined against the wall and shot.

History / The smallest Poland ever? [115]

Are you satisfied with Poland's current territorial extent?

No, Poland should incorporate, Kalinigrad region, Lwów area, Grodno and Lida, as for Wilno the Lithuanian chauvinistic fascist swine's, should be brought to their senses regarding discrimination of Poles there, if not Wilno should also be incorporated.

no, I don't agree and I think that was just a political statement, nothing more and nothing less.
I'm not going elaborate on that, as any serious discussion on PF is being hijacked by the two happy trolls, harmine - pests.

News / What are Poland's optimal both real and virtual neighbors? [81]

Actually it is - people have a right to choose which country administers their territory.

Do they ? I wonder, maybe theoretically they can, or maybe in your fairy story, in my fairy story mostly they are shuffled about without chance to exercise their rights .

he geopolitical situation seven hundred years ago is irrelevant today.

So, what about geological situation from three hundred years ago?

But this isn't. By the same logic of your 'argument' Poland could be partitioned again between Germany, Russia and Austria.

No, my argument is that Kalinigrand should belong to Poland because it is part of Prusy, country which have had many ties with Poland, and larger part of which belongs to Poland already. Also, it is a artificial enclave of Russia next to Poland, only natural is that Poland would claim that land,like Spain Gibraltar or China Hong-Kong.

Partition was wrong,but we cannot really go back to borders from before 1772.
So, can we can only make it right as much as we can. As for people of K, I'm sure that in long run it would benefit them also
