USA, Canada / American people attitude towards Poles in the USA [98]

Don't be frettin' Harry, I won't be taking food off your table.

And it's not possible to get a work permit as a freelancer

You don't seem to get it Harry.
#1. I am not charging money for my services
#2. I am not working in a MEN approved school
#3. I am not working, I am having fun teaching Polish people American Southern butchered English slang.
#.4 I will not have an employer as I will not be working

You would be working illegally as an illegal immigrant.

No, no, no, I would be offering a free class to Polish people who want to learn to speak American English.
I would not be compensated for my enjoyment.

It's always amusing when you Americans think that as you're American Polish employment and immigration law doesn't apply to you,

It always amuses me how you (and your English friends here) tactics are to intentionally misconstrue the point someone is trying to make so you can make your point that is totally irrelevant.

I have repeatedly told you that I am qualified, that I will not me charging money, that I will not be teaching in a
MEN approved school, that I am going to do it just for personal enjoyment yet your brain has a fixation to
tell me that I am not qualified and will be breaking the law if I do things that I have no intention of doing.
I think you are just jealous that I may teach with skills that show the Polish people that teachers in Poland are really not the little gods that they think they are by welcoming them to challenge me instead of how dare you suggest that you know more then the teacher attitude.

So when you are sitting in your local Pub and hear a native Pole order another beer with: "Yo nurse, I be fixin' to have another down yonder" you will know it is one of my students. :-)

Just an update on my endeavor Harry.
I was talking to my young friends in Krakow last night and they already have four or five friends
that want to expand upon the little bit of Englsh they already know.
I figure within six weeks of classes I will have them speaking English like 'real rednecks' from the
southern United States of America. :-)
I can't wait to meet them.

You most certainly need to be qualified if you're going to get a job at an MEN inspected and approved school.

Since I won't be getting a job at an MEN inspected and approved school I will be good to go as a free lance.

I will hire a Polish/English speaking assistant that smiles a lot.
You are welcome to submit your application if you want.

Straz Graniczna, that's their job.

And what law would I be breaking to get arrested Harry ? Having more fun then adults are allowed to have ?

You really think you can teach English?

Absolutely.

USA, Canada / American people attitude towards Poles in the USA [98]

None of which qualifies you to teach anything

I don't need to be qualified to teach, I just need to be able to teach, which I can/have.
Since I am not doing it for a monetary gain and I am not teaching in a school who is going to arrest me
for having some fun teaching Polish kids how to read, write and speak English out of my flat ?

I knew an evangelical pastor who had to leave Poland because he couldn't afford the tax he would have to pay

Pigsy said he would let me use his place when he wasn't there for free.
Hey there is another idea, I could come to Poland as an Evangelist missionary to save lost souls.
So many opportunities to teach and learn at the same time.
Thanks for the advise and idea's Harry.

With no qualifications and no experience you won't qualify for the work permit that you are required to have,

Oh I have many years expeience speaking English Harry.
Don't need a work permit if I volunteer to do it for free.
I will donate my time in exchange for free place to stay.
This is looking better and better as I think about it.
What a way to spend a summer.

USA, Canada / American people attitude towards Poles in the USA [98]

Have you ever heard of an American being arrested in Poland for teaching English illegally?

No. You?

That's it, I am moving to Poland and teaching English.
It would be the hottest thing going.
My students would stand out with their butchered slang and accent. Ha !
A new fad for the Polish kids......speaking English with a southern drawl. Cool !
It would definitely separate them from island English.
"We'yall fixin' to Q some poke ? Bring u'ren childins" with ya. Y'ont some shine ? Pass yer plate."

Dictionnaries are written by people and every year there are changes in dictionnaries.

The meaning of words aren't changed however so the word for homo immorality will have to be created.
How about pain in the butt as what the 1.5% of them are.
AGAIN, it is an attack on Christianity and Poland is a Christian Country.

Some 70 years ago, Jews were the scapegoats, then Blacks were, now it's the Gays' turn and tomorrow whose turn?

The difference is that the Jews and Blacks were not promoting sin as not being sin as the liberals are doing.
There is no such thing as "gay marriage".
In any dictionary of the world "marriage" is defined as a union between a man and a woman.
There is a reason for that and gays can't accomplish that reason.
Christians are saying enough of you libertines promoting sin as not being sin.
In case you haven't noticed the Liberals are at war with the Christians.
The Christians refusing to bow to the liberals dammands of YOU WILL accept the gays, YOU WILL love them, YOU WILL tolerate them, YOU WILL........

No, Christians will never tolerate promoting sin and being Poland is a Christian country what do the gays expect.

and would like to share my experience here after each weekend

Nobody cares, really.
Would you care how I spent my summer vacation after each fishing expedition I went on ?
Hardly.
I had the opportunity to watch Jamaica & Brazil play a soccor game one time.
Big deal, a bunch of guys running around kicking at a ball and each other.
I think one point was scored the whole game. How boring.
None of which has anything to do with the Polish people or Poland.

Life / Why are Polish so conservative and religious? [240]

Catholicism believes in many things which the vast majority of Polish people do not, such as the need to go to church each and every Sunday.

Since the majority of Polish people are Catholics and don't believe that you have to go to church every sunday (shown by your own attendance statistic Harry) to remain in the Catholic church shows indeed that

they believe other then you have suggested.

You "real men" (at least the religious nutters amongst you lot) dream of the good old times back in the 18th century when women were chained to the stove, had to provide sex on demand, and were pregnant on a constant basis.

Where did all that come from ? Never did I mention woman here only homo's.
If you want to idolize Elton John go ahead as I will idolize Jesus Christ.
These homo's now want to adopt children and put one of the males name on the birth certificate as "Mother".
The poor kid will go to school and when ask what his mothers name is he/she will say LARRY. WTF!
LARRY ain't the mother. They will have to come up with a new name for that too just like they will marriage.
The people in Poland aren'r about to let that happen anytime soon no matter how hard you liberals
try to shove it down their throats as in YOU WILL accept it, YOU WILL love them, WILL tolerate them, YOU WILL belive as we do, YOU WILL.......in the name of liberalism !

So please keep your creationism and all the other nonsense -- Poland is already 500 years ahead of you.

News alert ! Polish Catholicism believes in creationism and all the other things that are nonsense to an atheist who wants to promote such opposition into their culture.

So please keep your non Christian views out of their society.

Look up "True Blue" in the Urban Dictionary if you want to know where I am from.

I didn't want to use the word Limey but it does explain why your Off Topic posts get to remain in this thread.

You still fail to understand that European nations do not compare in any way to your little backward hick town

We are not talking about all European filth, we are talking about the great Christian country of Poland that
believe in Jesus Christ. Words that sting your pointed ears.

Thank goodness that Poland isn't the backward hellhole that you and your fanatical lot want it to be.

Quite the opposite Frenchie.
The Polish Christian culture want to keep it the way it is ...... from your fanatical lot to change it to the hell hole like you are from (atheist France isn't it) ?

As much as you despise Christians and what they stand for you should join your Muslim brothers in Islam.
They despise Christianity also.
Poland will be the last Christian country on this earth to concede to homosexuality or Islam.
And your added lie (a little lie goes a long ways) about my role of hating women.......was that in the same dream or did you just make that up to strengthen your fanatical rant ?

Please do try and stay on thread today.

The similarities are striking .

Between limp wristed homosexual males and women, the simulaities are very striking.
The thread (and my posts) said nothing about women or slob men taking it off topic to confuse the issue
like the last three posts have.
I stuck to the thread only posting about homo's being guaranteed respect.
I just gave an example of why Gays wouldn't get the respect that they are demanding from a Polish Christian society and how the question that the thread asked assumed being gay was a civil right.

News / Does democratic Poland guarantee it's LGBT citizens respect for human and civil rights? [1169]

At last. Generally they've been trying to avoid the subject.

Yup and another subject that they avoid is Islam.
Both "subjects" want to destroy Christianity........see the connection ?
Is the title of this thread a trick question ?
To start with, "MARRIAGE" is defined in any dictionary as "a union between a man and woman." PERIOD !
So the Homo's are going to have to make up a new word for what they want to do.
This has nothing to do with respect for human or civil rights.
Wake up !
It is clearly a war on Christianity by the liberals.
You WILL accept it, you WILL respect it, you WILL guarantee us, you Will.........the typical liberal demands.
And if you oppose them they start their name calling, you are a homophobe, racist, old school.....and the rest of their worn out pet names.

Christians stand right in the way of these "progressive liberals" agenda.
Homosexuality IS NOT a civil right as bad as it is being promoted to be.
The biggest war in this world right now is a war on Christians.
Does democratic Poland guarantee........ or Does Christian Poland guarantee when it goes directly
in opposition to their beliefs.
Liberals want to eradicate Christianity and this is just another battle to do it.
Islam wants to eradicate Christianity but the liberals say you WILL love them, you WILL not talk negative towards them, you Will accept them, you WILL tolerate them, you WILL........

Starting to get the big picture of what this is all about ?
It has NOTHING to do with "marriage" or civil rights that the liberals want you to believe.
It's the Liberals (and Islams) goal to destroy Christianity.
Being Poland is a Christian country it is highly doubtful they will 'guarantee" sin anytime soon.

Could it be that paedophiles are more likely to be hetrosexual than homosexual or bisexual?

Since only 1.5% of the population are homo's and 98.5% are hetro's that would only make sense.
I wonder what that figure would be if you put in proportionality ? I think we already know the answer to that.

It is the society-wide implications of a tiny 3% minority that wants to impose its views and values on the rest of society

Actually it is about half that, 1 1/2 % are gay in society.
Then you have the young boys who are really not gay but act gay because it is "cool" and they get attention for flaunting a gay walk or talk or hair doo.

Women on the other hand get a man's haircut and wear trousers because it gives them a feel of authority
over other women.
All just a big show to get recognition.
So the 1.5% of society that are actually gay sure do howl loud to impose their beliefs, views, immorality on the other 98.5% by DEMMANDING their respect.

Us real men that drink our beer from a bottle, sweat, stink, pass gas, beltch, desire sex from the opposite sex, sit with our legs apart for comfort, anti- gay are the 98.5% that refuse to be told what we MUST accept

when we already know it is wrong.

quote by Harry

If you want to be a Catholic, you have to go to church every Sunday. It really is that simple.

quote by the Reb

Missing a sunday of church DOES NOT disqualify you from being a Catholic.

quote by Harry

No, it just means that you are not doing the very minimum required by your religion

Harry you can't have it both ways.
quote by The Reb

What if you are sick, what if your job requires you to work, what if you have an infant ?

quote by Harry

So, in short, none of the things you mention are a free pass.

quote by Harry

Do feel very free to read what the Vatican say about that

Here Harry, let me re post what YOU posted in post #183 about what the Vatican has to say about it.

vatican.va/archive/ccc_css/archive/catechism/p3s2c1a3.htm

2181 The Sunday Eucharist is the foundation and confirmation of all Christian practice. For this reason the faithful are obliged to participate in the Eucharist on days of obligation, unless excused for a serious reason (for example, illness, the care of infants) or dispensed by their own pastor.119 Those who deliberately fail in this obligation commit a grave sin.

So see Harry by your own admission of guilt you are wrong AGAIN.
Now PLEASE, back on thread and quit pretending you know the Catholic Canon.

You claim to be Catholic

No such claim was ever made Harry so you are wrong AGAIN.

If you want to be a Catholic, you have to go to church every Sunday.

Missing a sunday of church DOES NOT disqualify you from being a Catholic.
What if you are sick, what if your job requires you to work, what if you have an infant ?
What did your read say Harry ? So you are wrong AGAIN.
Missing a sunday of church DOES NOT disqualify you from being a Catholic.
It is just considered a "grave sin" is what I read. Quite simple.
And since mass is now being said on Saturday evenings which exempts you from attending on sunday, if you really want to split hairs.
Now please............back on thread.

Life / Why are Polish so conservative and religious? [240]

Thank you for your promptness Harry.

In order to be a Catholic, one needs to do certain things; to be a member of the Catholic church one has to meet the minimum requirements is going to church every Sunday.

It doesn't say that Harry, it says it is a "grave sin" if you don't.
It says nothing about membership or that you will be excommunicated from the church if you don't
attend EVERY Sunday.

It doesn't mean that Catholics renounced their religion or religious beliefs

If you decide to go to "Our Lady of the Lakes" (to do some meditation fishing) on a sunday doesn't
mean you are no longer a member of your downtown church.
It simply means you have violated Catholic Doctrine instilled guilt of it being a grave sin.
You could justify going fishing instead as mental therapy for a sick mind.
God is the judge, not some church nor do they claim to be if you miss a sunday or two.
It doesn't say you will no longer be a member of the Catholic church or burn in hell if you miss an occassional sunday. So therfore your statement that it is a REQUIREMENT to go EVERY sunday to be

a member is simply not what it says.
My debate with you on this issue is over Harry from this point on our posts could go nowhere but off thread from here which is a grave sin of the Polish Forum and we could be judged into darkness for eternity.

Stay well my friend.

All quotes are Harry's OPINION'S not to be backed up by any proof concerning why Catholics are not religious in Poland.

The Vatican disagree with you.

Show me your source that claims this with their quote.

No, but going every Sunday is what the RCC requires as "the very necessary minimum" from Catholics

Who says, you ?

to be a member of the Catholic church one has to meet the minimum requirements of the RCC.

And those requirements say nothing that you have to attend church EVERY sunday as you keep claiming
to be a Catholic and you can't show any proof otherwise.

Catholics are required to go to church every Sunday and every holy day

Says who, and show me where anything says that.

I don't need to deny that: I can quote data

Then quote that from the Vatican website that you claim says it.

Would you like me to link to the Vatican website?

YES ! please Harry as we are waiting for you to do just that.

I'm more than happy to do that when I next get to a proper computer, just let me know.

You sound like the little boy whistling in the dark......."I am not scared of the dark."
Harry for you to post your personal fantasies on something so sacred to so many people with false
claims about Catholics not being religious because they don't go to church EVERY sunday is beneath contempt.
