Life / "Survivor's report" from a children's mass in Poland [62]

I am not saying you are wrong, I am just saying that I could find any such verses on a quick look over.

Ah, chapter "20"......that's what I needed to find it.

he said: "Whose sins you remit are remitted and whose sins you retain are retained." (St John 20-23)

Yes sir and my Bible says the same.
"If you forgive anyone's sins, their sins are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven."
You are totally correct Pol3.
As I said this morning.......

I will have to take the time later to look as work is calling right now.

I just got home from work and couldn't wait to research this.
Again Pol, you nailed it or as they say here on the PF, Spot on old chap, good job.

Life / "Survivor's report" from a children's mass in Poland [62]

I'm not a big e-gadgetarian but I typed "whose sins you retain" (from memory)

From memory ?
So what you are saying is that you can not show me a chapter from John in the Bible where any verses 20-23 is says any such thing ?

The Bible also says that any man that teaches false scripture will be judged double. (from memory)
I am not saying you are wrong, I am just saying that I could find any such verses on a quick look over.
If you are going to quote scripture you should be able to find it in the Bible to back it up.
I am just saying............

Pol may I ask you in what chapter of John are those verses found ?

1John is the only one that has more then 14 verses with 2John only having 13 and 3John only having 14 verses.
So that leads me to believe that you are quoting from 1John and in 1John only chapter 2 and 3 have more then 20 verses.
Please tell me which one you are referring to as I am totally confused in not finding any quotes of the such that Jesus himself made.

John has 21 chapters, maybe you are referring to one of those that you got those verses from.
I will have to take the time later to look as work is calling right now.

Life / Is "Polish person - Atheist" an oxymoron? [24]

The current pope loves gays, atheists and muslims.

He loves everybody, Levi, that's his job.

God loves everybody too but it doesn't mean He isn't going to hold the gays, atheists and fanatical Muslims accountable.

News / Poland directly threatened by ISIS. Do Islamists planning terrorist attacks in Poland? [390]

Ya sure blame everyone but yourself.

No, the facts put the blame where it belongs. I had nothing to do with it.

Why cant the fat elephant just mind his own business and stay the **** out of Europe??

I'll ask Obama first thing Monday morning.

The only thing the US gave is membership to NATO

How generous to protect you from Uncle Putin.

Your politicians suck up to the Jewish Zionist and AIPAC lobbies and send billions of $$$ to Israel.

They are our greatest allied because they are the only one with any balls to carry their own weight.

What did the US send to Poland? A few broken f16s... its a big joke.

What did Poland send the US ?

If this was a real alliance the US could actually send something serious to protect Poland.

We did YoYo, the US did put the missile defense in Poland you cried to take it out because it would make you a target for Uncle Putin.

Israel would have said, "thank you".
What in your mind makes you so deserving ? In Jamaica the saying is, "Nothing for Nothing".
Who do you fear invading you ?

The world is tired of the big players

I bet they are but when you have countries with life styles of a 32 hour work week and countless holidays while the big players countries work week is 40 to 60 hours per week with minimum holidays..........well you reap what you sow.

Everything that has built the US you are jealous of.
You hate capitalism, you call us dumb, you mock our ways as the most successful and greatest country in the world and then when the wind blows the other way you cry because you think the US should pay for and send all new military equipment along with billions of dollars to you because ?

Now fuzz nuts either join the PF as a member or don't expect another reply from me.

don't you have anything else to do in your miserable life besides splitting hair?

Just wanted to make a point that just because you are a foreigner living in Poland does not make you an expert anymore
than a foreigner who does not live in Poland as your daily rants insinuate.

Does not matter how you call "workers' dwellings"

Calling them something that looks like in a book written by Dickens and Zola was a slap in the face to why they look the way they do.

I just want to educate your smart mouth by your belittling Poland once again.
As depressing as your life seems to be living in Poland no one really understands why you pretend to live a pseudo Polish life.

the inhabitants are dirt poor and spend a great deal of their time sitting on the sidewalk and drinking.

I wonder what you would do if you had no money (including any life insurance policy money) and no hope in life for it ever to get better.

Surely if your pretentious life were to be humbled to that point you would be sitting on the sidewalk drinking too or worse commit suicide.

When I go to Saint Sephen's cemetary in Bogucice,

Saint Stephen is not a cemetery, it's a church in Bogucice. The cemetery has no name.

I happen to regularly go to Katowice and believe me, in some areas, it looks like in books written by Dickens and by Zola.

Bogucice are full of certain kind of buildings called "familoki". They are very Silesian. They were meant to look this way.

UK, Ireland / Sugar tax in the UK. Polish friends addicted? [55]

Pigsy........oh I mean NoWay, I think you should lighten up on Harry.

I fail to understand why people who do control their desire to over-eat should be forced to pay because some people cannot control their desire to over-eat.

We pay for alcoholics, we pay for cigarette smokers, we pay for illegal migrants, we pay for the welfare people that are budgetly impaired or just plain lazy, we pay for all kinds of people that have no self control or accountability because they are allowed to be "enabled" by the socialist government give away programs.

There is nothing more annoying then to go to the grocery store and see a bunch of obese people riding around the store in the electric carts provided for the elderly and disabled with the basket filled up with frozen pizza's, a case of pepsi, hotdogs, potato chips, cream filled jelly rolls, ice cream with NO vegetables or fruits.

They get up to the cash register to pay and out comes the FREE Welfare government food stamp card to pay for it all.
So in essence we pay to make them fat and we pay to care for them when they get diabetes, high blood pressure, have heart attack and strokes.......all in the name of stupidity.

We are forced to pay for the monster that the government has created with these "entitlements" that are killing the dumb and lazy people that have no self control or self worth.

The sugar tax along with banning these products from being free to welfare recipients would be a start.

News / Poland directly threatened by ISIS. Do Islamists planning terrorist attacks in Poland? [390]

ISIS said that London would be their first target.
My guess Berlin will be second.
From there I suspect that they will move onto softer targets like France and Poland.

If the US cared about Poles, Poles wouldnt have VISA problem,

The Poles brought that on themselves by not going back home and disappearing in American society.
Poles are now considered a high risk of not going back when their VISA's expire.

if the US cared about Poland, they would not be destablizing Eastern Europe right beside Polands border.

You would rather have Putin continue to march west ?
If it wasn't for the U.S. all of Ukraine would now be under the Russian flag.

if the US cared about Poland, they would give lots of equipment, weapons and technology (like Israel) but they dont.

Oh yes the U.S. does have lots of military equipment and personnel in Poland.
Why do you think the U.S. should just "give" Poland all this when all you ungrateful that bad mouth the U.S. only like the U.S. or E.U. when they are giving you something.

GIVE us visa's, GIVE us military equipment, GIVE us NATO protection, GIVE us GIVE US is all America hears.
When is America going to be given something besides burdens and bad mouthing from other countries ?

As long as Poland keeps the animals (Muslim extremists) out things should be safe.

To late for that, Europe is now infiltrated with them with millions more of them to follow.
You will be begging for America's support again when all hell breaks out so be nice.

UK, Ireland / Sugar tax in the UK. Polish friends addicted? [55]

why should people who simply cannot control their greed for food be treated any better?

Oh Harry you know the words of "self accountability", "self control", self responsibility" have been lost in this generation.
It's pepsi's fault for all the sublimatel advertising they do.
MODERATION is the key.

White sugar kills

Yes it does as white refined sugar is poison to the human body.
This is what cancer feeds on.
Cancer can not live in an Alkaline body.
What does this tell you about sugar ?
The three foods that kill you if not eaten in moderation, sugar, salt and grease.
Try going a week with zero tolerance for any of the three.

The waxy potatoes are the ones with the least amount of starch

Thank you for correcting me as my memory in my old age fails me occasionally.
As I posted earlier in this thread, if I want spuds for dinner either mashed, fried or boiled I go out to
my root cellar and grab some.
On the way back into the house I thank the Lord for blessing me with them.

News / Should recent arrivals to Poland, such as Syrian migrants, be required to learn Polish? [10]

Hopefully the Polish government won't cave like they have here in the U.S.A.
When you call just about any government agency the recording that first comes on says, "Push one for English".
B.S. I say to that, how about push one for Spanish and push nothing for English.
It just goes to show you what the illegal and legal migrant invasion can do to a country over time.
Once those people start voting look out.
Push one for Arabic, push two for Polish.

Food / Best Polish Potato Variety for Mashing [67]

will have a label stating what type of cooking the potatoes are best suited for.

Those labels boil down to (no pun intended) how much starch is in each variety.
Obviously you don't want a lot of starch in a baking potato.
The ones full of starch (waxy) are the ones they suggest for mashing, boiling and frying.
My sister always insists on buying the biggest potato's she can find with them weighing close to a half a pound each.
Then she brings them home and cuts them in half or thirds.
I poked fun at her about it and she said the bigger potato's seem to have less starch in them.
She is just like you charming girls are and "politely" straightened me out. lol
Yukon Gold's cost the most so they must be the best.

Food / Best Polish Potato Variety for Mashing [67]

I always ask what kind of potato is in the stew or soup when I eat at a fancy restaurant while in a foreign country.

I want to them to perceive that I come from an affluent United States background to impress everybody.
Back here at home I just go to my garden or root cellar to get my potato's.
I grow the Kennebec and Idaho for my favorite choice to stay away from the store bought which are
sprayed with blight killers, bug killers, pesticides not to mention the chemical fertilizer's they are grown with.
All that added flavor and convenience getting them from the big store for just a little more.

Take a couple of damn potato's, scrub them up, peel them, grate them, throw them in a skillet with a sliced up onion and fry them in lots of butter.

Salt & pepper and sprinkle some cheese on and melt it just before you take them out of the pan.
Slap them on your plate and smear with sour cream.
Dunnit matter what kind of spuds ya use to do'er.
And as mama use to say, "thank the Lord that you have food, shut up and eat" or go to bed hungry".

(Of course back then we didn't have helicopter mom's making spoiled little puszies out of us.)

We have those lovely red skinned potatoes

My favorite are the red skinned yellow flush.
So thin skinned that you can wash the skin off with a scrubbing pad very easily.
Not only do they boil up the easiest, they definitely have much more flavor than any other potato I have ever had.

News / Poland Parliamentary elections 2015 [1060]

My point was that I believe people should not vote in a country where they don't live.

I agree or pay taxes to the that country..
I have always said, to be able to cast a vote you must present either your property tax receipt or proof of income tax.
Those are the people PAYING for what and who you vote for.
To have welfare recipients who vote for a living instead of work for a living that pay nothing into the public trough to pay for

what is being voted on should not be allowed to vote either.

I assume that first of all, most people in PF are not even voters in Poland anyway.

Like you I am not a citizen of Poland either however if I was I would vote for PiS.
