Apparently our new Pope has a degree in Mathematics.

That means he doesn't just understand sin, he also understands cos, tangent and hypoteneuse...

He probably means well, however doesn't seem to have any problems with (and in fact seems obsessed with) the idea of a transnational superstate.

And I've said here before, if someone's foreign they should not try to understand Britain or how the British think and behave. They will fail.

Of course his last few very long posts are just trying to deflect from the sad topic of this thread.


I forgot to mention Belgium. There too last month. What struck me was that much of Brussels reminded me of the east part of Warsaw 25 years ago, only more run down. Plenty of fascists there too.

We sometimes forget that despite unification, some of the places where the neo-Nazi AfD get a lot of votes are not prosperous places to live.

Crikey. You really are obsessed with the EU, aren't you.

I'll not bother to actually read your post, only to say that everything's been fine since leaving and the political situation there is far better and more stable than other major countries tries in Europe.

Within the last month, I've been in your country, in France, in the U.K. and in Poland. The first two just feel so poor and run down compared to Britain and Poland. Less in the shops, nothing new opening and palpably poor infrastructure.

You also keep trying to deliberately distract from the topic of the thread because it embarrasses you. Just to remind readers, the topic is not the EU and not other European countries that are either menders of it or aren't.

The topic is re-emergence of fascism in Germany, due to the rise of the neo-Nazi AfD. A worry for those of us who live in Poland due to what happened last time fascists held office there.

And you are wrong by their defińition. God is bigger than any one set of religious beliefs; even the RCC acknowledge that.


Most of the OT is just oral tradition from an Iron Age society.


Quite. Some people see prayers for intercession as a sort of vending machine.

If his mental health is such that he did an appalling thing like that, then he's innocent due to his illness which he has no control over.

And of course civilised societies don't have the death penalty; Poland is not China.

About protecting the innocent (from the effects of serious mental illness in others), perhaps society would do well not to squeeze mentalhealth services in order to provide tax breaks for 'investors' and expensive statues of dead clergy.

News / Man with axe attacks people at Warsaw University [17]


Yes. A harder one to come to terms with and harder to cure.

Nevertheless, Poland and other civilised countries don't kill people whose brain chemicals are so badly affected by illness that they end up doing thing like that.

Yep and it's a measure of our humanity and decency how we treat them.

This from you!!!!!!

The Pope, probably.


Why do you think that? Especially that some of those would say the same about you.

It doesn't matter to God what religion you follow. Religious affliliation is largely down to where you were born and what your relatives are.

I doubt Protestants or Orthodox would agree with you there. And as for Buddhists, Sikhs, Muslims, Hindus, Antoinistes, Parsees, Caodaists, Taoists, Scientologists, Satanists, Mandaeans, Sabaeans, Candomble/Vodun practitioners, Native American/Siberian Animists and Pacific Cargo Cult members, you'd have a hard time convincing them of that.

Off-Topic / Habemus Papam / The New Pope [91]


Quite. He's there whether they like him or not, and even if they liked him there are some who'd always find something to complain about.

Off-Topic / Habemus Papam / The New Pope [91]


He's been in the job a day and so so many people seem to know exactly what sort of a Pope Leo will be.

He's going to be liberal and conservative and moderate, Francis 2.0 or a cross between JPII and Benedict. Because he celebrated his first Mass as Pope versus populum the usual suspects say he's going to do away with the.old form of the Mass. He's wearing black shoes which makes him deeply unsound according to conservative tat queens. He was good to the poor in Peru but protected dodgy priests. Life often has its paradoxes.

We have a new Pope who will develop his own style, so let's see how things go.

Ale to nie mafia.

Być może to tylko kwaśne winogrona dotyczące niektórych ekscesów i dekadencji (niezależnie od seksualności), które istnieją w kościele w Polsce. Z pewnością nie ma "lawendowej mafii", ale niestety w kościele (we Włoszech, w Polsce i gdzieś indziej) nie brakuje konwencjonalnych mafii.

Then they're a lame duck president. Happens all the time between mid terms and presidential elections.

Better to have a King or Queen really.

Oczywiście, że nie, bo nic takiego nie istnieje. Zdanie "lawendowa mafia" było tylko obelgą ze strony jednej osoby.

Prawdopodobnie dobrym pomysłem by było cytowanie ludzi, którzy są zdrowi na umyśle, a nie najgorszych osobników, których można znaleźć na mrocznych odmętach Twittera.


W dzisiejszych gazetach można znaleźć wiele informacji na jego temat. Wydaje się dość dobrym wyborem między dwomami biegunami opinii w kościele.

Miejmy nadzieję, że Brat Leon będzie kontynuował dzieło Brata Franciszka.

Unfortunately not very well. Especially since pretty well everyone professionally involved in harm reduction is of the opinion that a combination of the legal situation and socioeconomic inequality are the root of the problem.

Dziś jest dobry dzień. Dokonali, jak się wydaje, doskonałego wyboru. Ciekawe, że wybrali młodszego kandydata; papież Leon prawdopodobnie będzie z nami przez jakiś czas.

Tęsknię za papieżem Franciszkiem. Był najlepszym papieżem ostatnich 100 lat. Dobrze widzieć, że nowy człowiek jest do niego bardzo podobny.

Of course. He has good point about putting fascistic autocrats in an island. They can all get together and oppress the penguins.

That clown Braun can go and deface as many exhibitions as he likes. Assuming he's not jailed by PL now he's lost his immunity.

That of course is the direct result of impurities and other issues caused by illegality.

You didn't really think it through before posting.

True. It's not a clean process if it's done outside a factory.

When it's refined for medical use, especially dentistry, the method is presumably better and above all quality controlled. I had a relative who worked, I think for Glaxo, making their local anaesthetics. When he was there , there were thefts of raw materials occasionally; the legal status does after all make it desirable for criminals to do that.


It's worked better than criminalisation, something that has cost untold lives and enriched the mafia.

Maybe a bit of Antarctica.

If they ask the U.K. nicely, we've got an island for them. It's called Gruinard and most of the anthrax spores from weapons testing on the island have probably weakened by now.

Mate de coca is quite popular. It's on sale in Europe, as far as I know legally.

If people buy refined cocaine though, it's been made by God knows who with no quality control. Another failure of criminalisation.

News / Attacks against healthcare workers in Poland [142]

Foreign puritans pushed for decriminalisation. It was entirely about their domestic markets. The so-called 'war on drugs' has failed as spectacularly as prohibition of alcohol did across the Atlantic.

That and the British Armt (together with Polish forces) liberating Denmark which the r*SSian's were racing to try to take. It was very close; Denmark almost ended up behind the iron curtain.
