History / Where did Poles spend summer vacations in the PRL era? [63]

Poles preferred to travel to places where "meat and fat" food bonds were not needed:

Language / Help with female clergy titles or forms of address in polish? [54]

I don't know any Catholic who would skip church just because there wasn't a female priest.

Language / Help with female clergy titles or forms of address in polish? [54]

"We declare that the Church has no authority whatsoever to confer priestly ordination on women and that this judgment is to be held by all the Church's faithful." A woman can never become a Catholic priest. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Womenpriests

Has the parliament's building been used without changes for 100 years? There must've been some reconstruction after the war, unless it was completely reconstructed already. Must be well documented online, I'll read.

"So they [would] split off the surface and just keep going around and around, basically, in a low orbit around the Earth."

So.. what about the so called "gravitation?" They tell us that gravitation keeps all the ocean waters in place (even if the water is on the bottom of the "Earth's bowl"), but when the Earth stops "spinning" it takes gravitation away? Lies upon lies by spin masters: space.com/what-would-happen-if-earth-stopped-spinning who have no arguments but repeat asking questions.

Off-Topic / Energy-free rail from North to South? [35]

I get up in the morning and cannot grasp the fact that 98% of the population still believe the Earth spins at 680MPH every day, that a man can become a woman, or that a physical explosion ("big bang") created emotions, feelings, and everything else. But then I realize that it's just the beginning and that the "AI" (now powered by google and other mass-media outlets) will erase all the inconvenient facts and history from our lives. People won't stop it this nonsense, only God can.

Life / Poles turn their backs on organised religion. [148]


I personally don't judge. I'm just trying to give my best and honest opinion based on my life experiences. People don't realize that the devil is working in our lives to lie to us to turn away from Christ. I've personally experienced the works of the devil and let me tell you this - I do not wish anyone to experience the same for a short period of time, let alone for eternity. Satan is much smarter than us, he knows us more than we know ourselves and he would use every opportunity to tempt us to sin. When we sin, God may discipline us (if there is still hope for us) through the works of satan to get back on the right path. I cannot persuade my own mother about it, so I'm not surprised anonymous people don't take it seriously, but hey.. I've tried.

Life / Poles turn their backs on organised religion. [148]

The soul's destiny after death has nothing to do with organized religion. Each individual will be judged according to his/her deeds and belief in Christ, not according to what Christian party he/she is associated with. The litmus test are the 10 commandments.

Polish bread used to be good, now it's good enough but not that great. All because of GMO crops.

Law / A D-visa required? Info regarding emigrating to Poland. [5]

As a US citizen I don't think you need to apply for visa to visit Poland or any EU country. You can use your passport and legally spend up to 90 days in Poland on the US passport. While in Poland, you indeed have 90 days to apply for residency etc. Make sure you have all the original documents ready and you could translate them in Poland as they require translated documents. I'm not sure, but I think you can stay legally in Poland over 90 days as long as you have legally applied for work or study permit within 90 days and have a proof of it.

Gemany-Poland: 1-0 (1974) - World Cup - exactly 50 years ago

The match went down in history under the name "Match on Water". A powerful cloudburst turned the pitch in Frankfurt am Main into one big puddle. The players played in abnormal conditions, and the stake of the match was to advance to the final of the World Cup. The hosts won after a goal by the "king of the field" aka "criminal" by Gerd Müller.

Poles, Austrians, and especially Czechs like their beer. A little surprising that Germans are not in top 5; perhaps because the Eastern migrants / nationals in Germany avoid drinking alcohol in general.

You can do this search: google.com/search?q=%22najlepszy+center%22 to find Polish articles using the word "center."

Because the word "center" is now used in everyday Polish, especially in the sports context but also others.

Why even talk about the American version - the POLISH version is the litmus test here and it is "center" too ;)

Historical evidence.


There is only one "composite" (ie. created by a computer) picture of the whole Earth from space. The picture is totally fake, but it's been circulated for decades now. There is no real picture of the whole earth from the space and there will never be.


Your point about St. Paul establishing the church is like saying that the first man who spotted an elephant was the elephant's creator. To establish something, it first needs to be created either through knowledge / wisdom or physically. Jesus, through His teachings, established the Christian religion and the church.

Probably the advice doesn't apply any more since the UK is no longer in the EU. It must have caused a lot of headaches and bureaucracy for Poles working / living in the UK.

Both are correct. "Center" is in American English.


Because that's how God created them. All those NASA pictures, "alien" movies, and related theories are manufactured nonsense, but you may check my other thread to follow if you like these topics.

  Who established the Church
  

Life / Poles turn their backs on organised religion. [148]

Jesus established the Church and is the Head of the Church. Anything else is just a creation of humans who want to live in the flesh. Protestants and other arms of Christianity think they can make things better than God Himself.

Notice that both Kopernik and Luther literately lived in the same period and might have even personally met. Kopernik came up with a nonsense theory that the Earth is not the center of the universe (which was a basis of all the other ridiculous physics theories we have today) and Luther also radically changed the religion (initially, his motives were good but they got corrupted to the point of no return today).

Life / Poles turn their backs on organised religion. [148]

Watch some of the videos where Protestants protect the "just faith will save us" doctrine. Perhaps they don't formally teach it, but in real life you can see how they want to have their cake and eat it too. They behave like spoiled kids who just want to live in the flesh but also have a guaranteed ticket to Heaven. They have nothing against divorce etc. This is what made me wonder about this whole Protestantism movement.

Life / Poles turn their backs on organised religion. [148]

I've also noticed that the protestant church has been becoming a "popular" arm of Christianity; in Poland too.

But have you ever wondered why? The main reason is that Protestants think that just pure "faith" will save them from hell.

Translation: we can do as we please, don't have to do any good deeds, the 10 commandments don't apply to us, and we can sin as much as we can, but if we "believe" in God, He doesn't mind us living in line with satan and He will always forgive us. It is a devastating mockery of God and faith. Do they really think God is so naive? The bible has dozens of warnings about such "faith."

If you "believe" in something in real life, you don't contradict it in your actions. If you "believe" vegan diet is good for you, you don't eat meat every day. But that's what Protestants do.
