News / Should Poland Remove Visa Restrictions? [285]

i think you are the one who thinks most immigrants are nice and contribute positively to the countries they invaded, all based on a few positive experiences you had with immigrants.

But you are an immigrant and and ass, so you do not need to think that any more :)

Oh come on Jarnowa....now say it!

He is embarassed, leave him alone, he comes from some place so backward that he can't even bring himself to say it on here, wow that place must be bad :X

I love the GOOD German people who know how to respect and love others

I have seen some of those movies too ;)

I still love you! *hugs the boat*

I don't want to see that movie.

@ Sean, why does it matter to you from which European country i am?

Because you don't want to tell us, so that makes me think there is something in it and since you are only on this forum to tell us about your prejudices about people from other places, I think it is only fair that you tell us where you are from, unless you truly are embarrassed.

You talent for misunderstanding is boundless.
So where are you from? I bet you are not an E.U. member but are from Europe, where are your parents from boy?

Why just the E.U.?
Why not geographical Europe or people of Europeans decent, like a lot of people in Australia or North America? and why only them...?

I think some of you are looking at the positives for Polish people being able to work in other E.U. countries but are unwilling to apply the same positives to other countries.

If the labor is too expensive, it has to be driven by something.

Well take Ireland, it has a very high minimum wage. So some companies have left and some are ending up here in Poland.

The entire idea of open borders was to bring up the standard of living in all countries.

I was told that open boarders would make us level.
It could not only bring up the poorer countries but i also see it as an investment, what the E.U. invests in to Poland now will make Poland a much stronger country, much quicker and in the future we will have a standard playing field.

Free movement of labor and goods works in an environment where the labor laws are the same,

I think this has been changing too in the E.U. at least.

Companies are just hoping from country to country feeding from the tax payer trough.

But if

the labor is too expensive

, they are hardly going to make things at a loss.

The difference Sean is that my Polishness is not difference from Germaness, Britishness or Loch Ness :)

In many respects I agree and that can be said for virtually all nationalities, it just depends how much you want to believe the differences.

News / Should Poland Remove Visa Restrictions? [285]

So you think there should be visa restrictions for Polish people going to Ireland, like it was before the E.U?
I am not sure where you are coming from, until I do it is difficult to understand where you are going with this.
As there are Polish living and working in Ireland who do not know much about Irish culture, how would you go about changing that?
And if the labour is too expensive in any country, is that not a bad thing anyway? (perhaps it is just the use of the word "too" in that sentence, giving it a negative meaning?)

The person has to want to be part of Polish culture, not just live on Polish soil.

Is that not the same for a Polish person in Ireland, or a Irish person in Poland?
I think it is.
But the Polish person in Ireland does not have to become Irish, he can keep his Polishness.

Except this particular scapegoat is actively trying to f*ck up our civilisation

That's what all scapegoats do.

Muhhamad cartoons.

That was a catastrophy.

You dont see Catholics going on crusades over Jesus jokes.

reminds me of Bush's "Crusade" statement. (why are they laughing???)

Well then what do you propose we do with the milions of Muslims who want to use our liberties and luxuries of our civilisation all the while forcing us to conform to their beliefs and way of life?

That is what I am saying, most Muslims do not want to force you to conform to their way of life, that is the media hype that you and many others are buying in to.

How many Muslims forced you to do anything in London? Wanna talk about it? ;)

if diversity and tolerance means we get to experience the darker side of London i say f*ck it.

I view London as a country in itself. I would not compare London to Warsaw, would you?

True but instead of trying to find the ones that are in the crowd its easier and safer to deny access to all of them.

This could be said about any scapegoat throughout history.

So you're saying that Muslim society at large has assimilated well into the greater European community?

I am saying that the two can coexist without one having to become the other.

i'm simply sceptical of Islams ability to cope with European civilisation without attempting to exploit, abuse and subdue native Europeans.

Are the majority of native Europeans that naive and influential? Well I suppose most of them are Christian... :)
Yhe media make it in to an invasion and you subscribe to it.

History / Polish hatred towards Jews... [1290]

Why would they think they are Jewish?

It being Israel that's all, in a similar way you would wonder why a Polish Jew would live here and not there, if you saw a Jewish Polish tourist.

I think most Poles do not hate Jews at all, of course there are always the few simple minded but they do not talk for the nation.

History / Polish hatred towards Jews... [1290]

They'd be friendly to Polish tourists because they would assume anyone visiting Israel is a friend and a Jew?
Obviously many Christians would like to go to Jerusalem but I was just wondering would there be an assumption about their religion?

History / Polish hatred towards Jews... [1290]

But if you ask someone about Poles, they still think in terms of the 1930s and they'll say, "yeah, they hate us."

What about Germans? Fair point about it not being the most pressing matter for Israelis now but I am just curious.

My guess is that they'd be friendly to Polish tourists because they would assume anyone visiting Israel is a friend.

And a Jew?

By the way, everyone in the world is not Muslim.

Yes, the simplicity of many people on this forum has them believing that there are Muslims and "us".
It seems obvious that everyone in the world is not Muslim but I understand why you wrote it.
Also every Muslim is not out to "get you".
I agree, this is just scaremongering of the masses, the "Big bad (fill in name of a fashionable minority to hate)" is coming to get you!

Off-Topic / PF - The Omnibus Edition [1502]

Heroes and Villains

The Feminists are against this and think it should be "Heroines and Villainess''.
The Religious think it sounds too comical and should be called "Angels and Demons''.
The Religious pagans think it doesn't sound pagan enough so they want to change it to "gods and goddesses".
The Atheists think it sounds to deist and think it should be called ''The Good and The Bad''.
The Buddhists think there is no good or bad and think it should be called ''Is''.

The trouble with the task in hand is the sheer number of people on here these days and the risk of offending people – not by insulting them but by omitting them.

I now completely understand what you mean ;)

That Poles work harder than any other nationality?

There's two sides to every coin

I think the main difference between your world view and mine is you can live in mine.

we winning!!!!

I have been thinking about this, if winning means that we live in a segregated world, completely fragmented and built on fear, doubt and anger, then I don't think we have won anything.

mixing German and Polish cultures have among other things produced Kopernik,

At best, there is also Auschwitz.

Just because tolerance and co-operation works for some races/nations/cultures doesnt mean it works always and for everyone.

Co-operation, in my honest opinion, is the only thing that will save the human race.
It has saved us so far.
Co-operation is the name of the game!

Sorry i dont like democracy that much, its a neccesary evil but being an egoist that i am i dont like that other people get to express their opinions as well

I never fully understood what you would like? I can assume you would like to be the dictator but if that were not possible, what way do you think things should be run? and why?

I think democracy is the best we have on offer.

I dont want to watch my back in fear of offending some caveman,

In our current democracy you do not have this fear.

i dont want stuff that co-existence with these bastards brings, i dont want Poland to become rife with ethnic issues is that so wrong?

I don't think it is wrong or right, it is your opinion.

Only if they were wealthy, not gonna sacrifice my weekly beer for my ideals:)

Now that is an ideology that I can live with.
Maybe if the Muslims just drank more beer.... ;)

communists were even worse in that Muslims want to dominate us and destroy our way of life while Communists wanted to dominate us and corrupt our way, this blurred the borders of good/bad and left a lasting impression.

I am glad you see my point.

I think many people on this site forget that 'the commies' (including Poland) used to be 'the enemy' not so long ago.

they are incapable of integrating, and they inhibit values, beliefs, and culture that is completely against our own.

This could have easily been said about 'The evil godless commies'.

I dont give a sh*t whether Europeans killed, raped or sodomized a bazilion of blacks and arabs in the past,this is the present and we modern Europeans do not owe sh*t to those barbarians.

It seems to be a tenancy, for the masses, to believe the current 'enemy' (today the Muslims tomorrow who knows?) has always been the enemy, that only today matters and the past is not worth looking at.

The commies were plotting our downfall, going to destroy our identity and build their Sovietski towers from the rubble if that failed they were going to attack us with their nuclear weapons, wiping us out altogether.

You mean hippy idiots that ignore social problems and allow native Europeans to be hurt by agressive non-European immigrants in the name of political correctness? I say LTB and other retards like him need to be round up and gassed for the sake of Europe.

This is an interesting post, German Nazis were fond of using gas chambers, I am sure you are aware. And you are basically slandering people and saying "people who have a different point of view to me ought to be killed", again tried in many regimes.

I think Sokrates, that you would make a very good North Korean, you have the right attitude.

Classifieds / Motorcycle trip from Poland to South Africa in the fall [25]

Hey Convex,

A friend of mine has just gone solo from Cyprus to South Africa:.
Cyprus-Turkey-Syria-Jordan-Egypt-(he is there now) Sudan-Ethiopia-Kenya-Tanzania-Malawi-Mozambique-Zambia-Botswana-Namibi a and South Africa for the world cup!

He left about two months ago, I got a text from him yesterday, he is camping in the Sudanese desert. He is going to take it easy, he reckons it'll take him 6 months to a year, he has been talking about this since we were teenagers :)

He has a blog and it is really nice to read the reality of these countries, the people are incredibly friendly. I spend too much time on this forum :(

I was planning on going with him but not this time, we have travelled together quite extensively in the past.

I am not sure if you know this site: Horizonsunlimited, it is a great site for tips, tricks and adventures such as the one you are talking about, look through it I think you'll like it.

Lots of Polish people doing the same thing, advice on visas etc...

Would I be right in thinking that you are planning to be in South Africa for the world cup?

I think you said on the other thread that you had been to Mongolia? how was that?
Could you tell me something about Mongolia, I googled it and read the Wiki link about it.

Let us know about your trip, I may know some people on your way or be able to find some useful info about visas for example.

My friend had to wait in Cairo for the Sudanese visa, it was the most difficult visa to get.

Anyway, you have probably done something similar before and I love to travel and I'd love to hear any stories you have to tell. Where is one of your favourite places that you have been and why?

Polonia / Polish people in New Delhi [86]

You very welcome anakanka,

And don't mind some of the others, they are just trying to illicit a response.

With your healthy attitude, I am sure you will have a great life there.

I am Irish and I live in Poland, for now, I enjoy it here.

Have you learned any Hindi?, I am not exactly sure what the main language is in New Delhi?
I just looked at it in Wiki, the temples look wonderful.

I agree.

And now one of Poland's most famous scientists:
Marie Curie 1867 - 1934 and Radioactivity.

P.S. Thanks for changing the title among other things and what? you didn't like "Bikini Tetrapods gone wild"? :)

this thread may get edited while it is decided what to do with it.

Neanderthaler Poland

A group of scientists from the Department of Archaeology, University of Szczecin in Poland found thefirst Neanderthal remains in Poland.

They found three molars (teeth) from a male Neanderthal in North West Krakow.

A group of scientists from the Department of Archaeology, University of Szczecin in Poland was the first Neanderthal remains .

It is possible that Cave Barn in the Polish Jura Chain , where it was found , was a place of burial.

Since the nineteenth century in Poland were found only traces of Neanderthal , mainly produced by the tool , but it never remains.

Szczecin researchers revealed that back in 2008 naleźli three Neanderthal molars , and from then surrendered find detailed examination .
So Wikipedia will have to change it's entry:

Now often also considered a distinct species, Homo neanderthalensis (otherwise known as Homo sapiens neanderthalensis) lived in the southern half of Poland during the Middle Paleolithic period, that is between 300,000 and 40,000 BCE. Various relics were found and different Neanderthal cultures are distinguished,even though no actual human bones from this period have been identified.

Or they can be tried to test some new design for an aircraft without a real flight. They will produce very realistic results in future

So we will be able to play some fantastic video games? :)

(Still they don't have enough processing speed to simulate all parameters in the real world).

My computer is slow too ;)

but modern science today has very solid methodology and there is no room for discussion

I would argue this point, after all it is not infallible, to error is human.

Cannot mods just delete nomaderol's posts as flaming?

I thought the best thing to do was to answer (with links), in this way others may benefit and we would not have to go over the same information all the time.

It was inevitable that someone would bring god into it, so better sooner than later, now where were we? :)

i dont know who to believe anymore. people really went to the moon, mars, etc?

No human has gone to Mars yet.
Japans lunar photos confirm the U.S's moon expedition.

if they didnt, then, it means church too believed in their lies of scientists who might have also blown evolution theories.

Going to the moon has nothing to do with evolution to my knowledge.

I can think of a few people I would like to send to the moon. There is not much on the moon, I will stick it out down here.

there is no oxygen in the sun and almost no where in the space to the present knowledge.

.

Oxygen is the third most abundant element in the universe by mass after hydrogen and helium

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen

it seems that there is contradiction between theories of formation of the earth and formation of the life on earth which is dependent on the oxygen.

You make the assumption that life needs oxygen and/or water but it fact before the oxygen was released from the earth's crust, there was life on earth (Obligate anaerobe) which died out because of the oxygen.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obligate_anaerobe

Read "A Short History of Nearly Everything" it is a good read and will help a general understanding of.... well.... everything :)

it is a simple finding.

It is a finding, yes but it changes the fundamentals of what we think we know so far.

And just to clarify the Vatican's position, they have made it very clear.

In an October 22, 1996, address to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, Pope John Paul II updated the Church's position to accept evolution of the human body:

"In his encyclical Humani Generis (1950), my predecessor Pius XII has already affirmed that there is no conflict between evolution and the doctrine of the faith regarding man and his vocation, provided that we do not lose sight of certain fixed points....Today, more than a half-century after the appearance of that encyclical, some new findings lead us toward the recognition of evolution as more than a hypothesis."

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution_and_the_Catholic_Church#Pope_John_Paul_II

it is interesting that our ancestors were fossils, isnt it.. how do you combine this with the formation of earth theories that say the earth was a fire sphere when separated from the sun? before fossils, we were ash?

That's right, God put fossils in the ground to question your faith and God put you on this earth to question mine.

Oxygen is the most common element of the earth's crust and hydrogen is the most common element of the universe.

what do you think where it came from?

I think, you are speaking out of your arse, there is water on the moon and Mars.
