Genealogy / Why are some Polish people dark complected, and others very light [511]


Trouble with your theory is that there was no massive infusion of Mongol DNA, and we all have origins somewhere around India.

Show some initiative, most girls assume that guys should take the Lead. Times have changed, so just be straight with him, and tell him how you feel and see what his reaction is, perhaps he feels that you are in a position of strength and feel inhibited.


disregard the advice from the person mentioned.

Remember don't apologize for your feelings because you are only apologizing for the truth-as Benjamin Disraeli said.

History / Heil Poland!.....? Poland is a pro-Nazi state? [106]


It is only understandable, coming from a country with no concepts of liberty, freedom of the individual and the rule of law, that you should dislike or misunderstand a country that espouses these values. It must be a real drag, because when you look at world history Poland has been by and Large on the side of civilization, Russia on the on the other hand on the opposite side of Poland.

As G.K Chesterton said: I judged the Poles by their enemies. And I found it was an almost unfailing truth that their enemies were the enemies of magnanimity and manhood. If a man loved slavery, if he loved usury, if he loved terrorism and all the trampled mire of materialistic politics, I have always found that he added to these affections the passion of a hatred of Poland. She could be judged in the light of that hatred; and the judgment has proved to be right."

Russia is a prime example of what Mr. Chesterton was on about

No, this was during Polish independence.

Genealogy / Jewish Roots of Poland [638]


Thanks for the info, but i already know all of that, I am referring to the university quota system for instance.

I am wondering though, this is from a row concerning my dad in the Australian Medical Journal with a distinguished Jewish gentleman relating to his life story as a doctor. In his life story he mentions that his Dad was denied employed in a Polish hospital in Tarnopol, I am assuming a government one because he was Jewish, and according to his article Jews were denied employed in Polish government run hospitals. What is your view on this?

Anyway my dad did a little research and he noticed a lot of doctors in Tarnopol hospital with what he thinks are Jewish sounding names. More interestingly though he looked at the registry records of doctors who were registered in Poland to practice medicine and he did not find the surname of the gentleman concerned, so he did not appear to be registered.

I believe he studied in Vienna, not in Poland. I wonder what would other perspectives be on this.

Probably because there weren't to many Jews in Scotland to begin with, they were more concerned with clan prejudice than antisemitism. Though come to think of it, you are wrong, considering that Scotland was part of the UK when the Jews were forbidden from standing for the British parliament. This changed sometime in the 19th century, whith the help of dome passionate oratory by a certain Benjamin Disraeli.


That is got to be one of the most idiotic things i have ever heard, why Don't Australians look like aboriginals or white South Africans turn black.

it is just so tragically stupid, ha ha ha.

I don't mean to be offensive by the way.

UK, Ireland / Polish immigrants in the UK - victims or criminals?! [243]


The million or so Poles who have come here in the past five years definitely came to work. They are three times more likely to be law-abiding than the average British resident, and the 134 Polish Catholic churches are packed. The most dreaded words for a Polish priest are not "mortal sin", but "fire regulations".

True, many Poles now go to school here, are treated by the NHS and some receive child benefit, but only three per cent are eligible for other subsidies. There is an extra burden on local health and education authorities and police associations: many of these social costs however are covered by their £1.9 billion a year contribution to the Exchequer in income tax and national insurance, and that figure does not include their contribution to council tax.

Hopefully this will satisfy you, so in summary they are more law abiding than the natives, harder working than the natives, do not claim as much benefit as the natives and according to this more intelligent than the natives, those with the thick accents anyhow. SO ALL YOU TEACHERS OUT THERE TAKE NOTE!

UK, Ireland / Polish immigrants in the UK - victims or criminals?! [243]


I wouldn't believe him, fact is after reading several newspaper articles and listening to some MP's speeches, there is a far greater native criminal element than among Polish migrants. what you are probably witnessing is an inferiority complex from the former 'working class', who now no longer work and express their inferiority through racism.
