Life / Why Do You Love Poland? [907]

Life / Why Do You Love Poland? [907]

Pawian, what kind of Poland would you like as far as LGBT's and foreigners?
My perfect Poland is zero and zero. How many would you like?
Please, notice that I didn't write how many you would tolerate. I wrote "like" - starting with zeros and going up. Like: zero gays? Not good. 1%? Still not good. 12%? perfect. That was just an example to help you decide.

Ain't gonna happen thanks to those who love Poland just the way it is. Only the Western whites want to elevate sick to normal for the reasons that still remain a mystery.

Pawian, let's get serious for a moment, and ask this question: is gayness strictly a birth anomaly or can it be acquired? Are you willing to run the risk that it can be acquired?

The risk being that the white repro rate will plummet form the already insufficient 1.7 (2.1 needed to maintain) to even less.

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [302]

I do when some moron here says that walls don't work.
They worked in Berlin, around prisons, and in Israel. But, according to morons, walls would never work in the US. You know - them tunnels.

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [302]

The best thing I ever did was move out the the city.:)

My trail is: Chicago, Downers Grove, Woodridge, Naperville and now Palatine.
The single weirdest thing was that when we lived in Naperville - the prettiest town in Illinois - for 17 years we would hardly ever go downtown. Now I go there often out of nostalgia.

I guess the line that we don't appreciate what we have until it's gone is true.

Also i think old warsaw went out of business.

This leaves Jolly Inn and Red Apple. Both are buffets which I am not crazy about because those require a lot of will power and I can't order a sizzling schabowy. I don't even think I could order it in Warsaw, as everything there caters to yuppies, not the old-timers like me.

The place where I am most at home here - based on the menu and the average customer age - is Bohemian Crystal in Westmont between Audi and Acura.

Good to see you back. FYI, while you were away, I made myself your pro bono lawyer and argued that you post was in large part a mirror image what I experienced in Poland in the sixties.

Work / Job opportunities for experienced US Civil Engineer in Poland - any hope? [30]

That's why I love the US. Came here on Sunday. Had an engineering job paying about 75 grand in today's dollars by Wednesday. Nobody even asked to see my diploma.

My advice is to drop your native language and get fluent in English as fast as you can to have a better chance to get into management, plus better salary and bonuses.

Do not watch Polish TV or read Polish newspapers. Do not import a wife. Instead, get married here so you will not have those stupid "I miss Poland and I want to go back home" discussions and dilemmas.

Off-Topic / DALMATIA - How much Poles love Dalmatia ? [123]

Spoke a master of evasion and a comprehension challenged language expert. As such, you conveniently missed:

Miracles are claimed by the Catholic Church to be facts.

This allows me to discuss miracles as facts, not beliefs, or faith. Facts. Did you get it, or will I have to repeat it?

Do you know what "facts" means? Of course, you know, but, instead, your post is about me, Korea, Japan, and pink ribbons.
On the other hand, "you" - meaning me - is used in your post 5 (that's five) times to switch, deflect, obfuscate, and derail.
So, either you deal with miracles as facts the way CC treats them or start your own religion where miracles are not facts but merely just suggestions.

So, which one are they: facts or something else?

Life doesn't work according to how you think it does, and the ways of G-d are a mystery.

Miracles declared by the Catholic Church to make some saints recently are not according to me, so drop that personal bs.

I didn't ask God. I asked you.
Miracles are claimed by the Catholic Church to be facts. There is no wiggle room there. They either occurred or they did not. Things which occurred, have time stamp, location, and the names of the miracle maker and the witnesses.

To be a saint, one has to have two miracles attributed to him or her. In plain English, it has to be claimed and proven that on a certain day, at a certain location, the person considered for sainthood performed a miracle. Twice.

If you are planning to give me more of the same evasive crap, don't bother.

Life / Why Polish people should be proud of being Polish? [370]

There is no pure race as The Nazis believed.

NAZI's were not stupid so I don't think they expected 100% purity. Just pure enough, like Polish women giving birth to Aryan babies.

To me, believing is about what already happened. Faith is in what is coming. Religions include both - with the latter based on the former. The problem is that if we remove miracles as lies, there is no former and the whole thing collapses.

Einstein wrote that he believed in a higher diety.

He lied to be acceptable. The first thing science says is that there are no miracles. Never happened. Never will. Once the miracles are declared frauds, Christianity collapses. Or at least its childish component. The adult part - be good - is still intact. The problem is that be good is already covered to a limited extent by the penal code. That is why removing religion from the public schools here and not offering a replacement was a mega blunder

Off-Topic / The "Anglicization" of Europe [132]

If there was no such thing as collective moral responsibility, you would never hear or read a sentence like: America is a racist country, for example. Or: NAZI's were evil.

I hope you got the idea.

No. Religion is the enemy of intelligence and vice versa since intelligence is naturally inquisitive and religion is by decree based on faith and blind obedience.

Global warming is the best example of the modern religion which punishes the inquiring non-believers. In fact, this is the first time in modern times where the term "deniers" has been introduced into what should be an intelligent and purely scientific debate.

In the past, too much inquisitiveness would get you in front of an inquisition court and executed. Nothing has changed except tat the executioners lost the authority to execute. Today, you will be fired.

It has to do with the topic as much as this:

In the beginning was the Word, according to the Bible, and about that, there can be no dispute!

That is not the same thing as saying.

It is by the same logic why the UK soccer team beat France. Collective credit walks hand in hand with collective moral responsibility. Governments often know what's going on and wink-wink tolerate it with glee.

Plausible deniability - as in: We will deny you are CIA if you get caught. Good luck. You may go now.

That sentence defames Russia.
I didn't say "the Mueller Report". I meant during the investigation, the buzz among the TV talking heads - CNN and Fox - was about the Brits who helped smear Trump with the dossier.

That is a sweeping statement.
Which Brits?

During the Mueller's investigation, two countries were mentioned more than any other - Russia helping Trump and the UK helping Hillary. Good guys, bad guys.

Travel / Which places in Praga, Warsaw are MOST DANGEROUS at night? [15]

[moved from]

From smartertravel.com:

Tourists around Warsaw will want to avoid Praga, and travelers in the region will want to stay close to the train station when visiting. The northern part of Praga can be especially dangerous, particularly at night. This is generally considered the poorest part of the city, and there can be a significant amount of crime from time to time.

History / Do Polish people in general dislike Russia or Germany more? [369]

But why are you defending such a failure of a country as Russia?

A. Russia does not to be defended.
B. I am stating my opinions about Russia and Putin, not defending either.

As opinions go, opinions are never wrong. False claims involving facts can, but not opinions.

We could debate who is more of a who*re forever. Let me conclude that RT, Russia and the Russian trolls were better as the American patriots than the Democrat subversives by trying to help Trump. Brits, on the other hand, tried to help Hillary. I know which of the two I like more.
