Travel / Photos from Poland [258]

I think its black and brown, must be some new disgusting fetish.

Black is for people who like doing it with lights out and brown... well, brown is... figure it out yourself.

Its looks horrible

How dare you - you homophobe, transphobe, patriarchal racist!!!

If you can`t, it means you are all obsessed.

:D

Travel / Polish people have a weird attitude torwards tourists [82]

I was just kidding. :) English has great potential to turn from an ugly and vulgar tongue into something very aesthetically pleasing and elegant when the writer/speaker is skillful with his style and choice of words. I am definitely not a keen admirer of this common language, but even I have to admit that when it is used by writers like P.G. Wodehouse, Kingsley Amis, John Mortimer or Hector Hugh Munro it can give one a certain measure of linguistic satisfaction.

If you want to converse with the locals and not make them roll their eyes, don't ever say, "expatiated".

Exactly. Language is, first and foremost, a communication tool, as I have -- on this very board -- on multitudinous occasions expatiated. :D

The board is infested with trolls today. Trolls and reprobates.

*praying...*

Oh, Lord, please make Oathbreaker and James123 - two staunch paedophile defenders and reprobates dead in their sins - see your eternal light and come to faith in Jesus Christ. Please save them by your mercy, Lord. AMEN.

You keep claiming that protecting child rapists from just punishment is "commendable". That tells me that you are everything but redeemed by Christ. You are dead in your sins and God turns His face away from you in disgust.

Life / Polish patriotic tattoos [45]

Not to mention that it's strictly forbidden in the Bible ("You shall not make any cuts on your body for the dead or tattoo yourselves: I am the LORD.", Leviticus 19:28), and most of those "patriots" probably consider themselves Christian. :)

Who's talking about "lynching for sins"?

I am talking about punishing for crimes commited on children. You are saying that protecting the rapist monsters was commendable which leads me to an obvious conclusion - you are either:

a) a troll, just trying to annoy people
or
b) a complete and utter sickf*ck

In both cases, there's no point arguing with you.

Which makes it commendable that the Clergymen have found it in their heart to forgive them and give them a chance, again and again.

Which allowed the criminals to continue raping children, again and again.

Are you sure "commendable" is the word you wanted to use?

Raping a child is one of the most despicable crimes one can commit. Children have been raped all over the world by the catholic clergy, and all over the world, according to the very same procedures implemented by dioceses and ecclesiastical courts, the rapist beasts were protected.

It was not a single diocese, a single bishop or a single parish, but the church on every continent, acting in an organised mafia-like style, protecting the monsters.

Those who fail to acknowledge that, or even try to defend the perpetrators, are no better than the rapists themselves. They make me sick. The only consolation is that they will have to, one day, stand in front of Our Lord Jesus Christ and answer for this monstrosity.

News / Should Poland leave the EU institution? [147]

@photo above:

11 goals for our national team in exchange for a moderately attractive blonde? That's a bargain! We have throngs of blondes and not nearly enough NT goals. :)

However, I don't see the connection with the EU here (Olisadebe was from Nigeria, as far as I can remember).

Going it alone is a sure way to lose

True.

Although a lot depends on how the UK will fare outside the EU. If they end up better off being outside, then the eurosceptic forces throughout the Union will be strenghtened immensely.

Life / The Pole, as an example of a perfect Russophobe, in a spherical vacuum [42]

I don't think you have to be biased against Poles to be able to state that they are generally dismissive of all things Russian.

A knee-jerk defensive reaction, after the trauma of partitions, uprisings and 45 years of forced "friendship". The reaction towards Russian state is quite understandable.

When it comes to attitude towards Russian people, you won't see much hostility or dismissiveness. Russian people are indeed Slavic, like we are, but they belong to a different civilisation (Byzantine with elements of Turanic, in contrast to Latin civilisation in Poland), so we are simply closer socially and culturally not only to Czechs or Slovaks (obviously) but also to Italians or the French - the same civilisation. So, what you see as dismissiveness is simply a realistic reception of a nation that is culturally, socially and politically very different from ours.

Mafketis is also quite right in his remarks about countries that tasted Russian "friendship" and don't really want to have anything more to do with the Russian state. It's not dismisiveness or hostility, but merely a political realism acquired during the long history of mutual contacts.

Surely, there is much to be admired about Russia - beautiful nature, great literature, brave and resilient people to name just a few things. But we prefer to admire these things from a safe distance.

a big problem. Average Russian wants to be like Poles, average Pole don't want to be like Russians

It may be true, but it doesn't mean that they can't get along.

News / A Polish u-boat calls for help? [16]

Hmmmm.....then God had made his children so, isn't it?

God granted his children a certain measure of free will, which they abuse by rebelling against Him and His law.

So....better fight the future fights not on battle fields but find a better, pragmatic, not so destrutive solution!

Exactly. And a great solution to fight peacefully has already been invented - FOOTBALL... but we still have wars :(

Better no war at all. Unfortunately, si vis pacem para bellum and all that, so we have to spend all the money for weapons instead of more useful things and more pressing needs. :-/

What's wrong with humanity? Christians explain it with original sin - the crack in sinful human nature that makes it desire wealth and power, hence all the wars and billions upon billions spent on armies. I wonder how atheists explain the dark side of human nature and the tendency towards greed, lust and evil in general.

News / A Polish u-boat calls for help? [16]

New military tactics - a total surprise for Russians. :)

I asked my cousin (an army major) about it, and he says that Baltic is a relatively small body of water, so it can be covered with proper surface-to-water missiles, that's why we bought Norwegian Kongsberg NSM missiles and we are building up the rocket forces. One rocket can sink one ship, so I suppose it's cheaper.

News / A Polish u-boat calls for help? [16]

I read a plausible explanation for the state of Polish Navy on another forum today: since Russians are significantly strengthening their Baltic Fleet with new vessels and tons of equipment (something that we cannot afford), the High Command decided to practically, gradually disband our entire navy. In this way we will make sure that in case of war not a single Polish warship will be sunk and not a single sea battle will be won by Russians.

Smart :)

It might have something to do with the shift in defence strategy, which puts much more emphasis on air and land forces, but Polish Navy has been severely neglected and something should be done about it.

Language / Polish was chosen the HARDEST LANGUAGE in the world to learn... :D [1558]

That's weird since a very large percentage of native speakers can do no such thing

Well, I suppose it's a question of my superior intelligence (matched only by my good looks and manners).

Lots of people can get to B1 or B2 but that's not what most employers want

Language is a communication tool, so the point is to communicate - get the ball over the net, not woo people with your smooth phrases and sophisticated idiom. Most employers understand that; those who expect native-like fluency from foreigners will inevitably be disappointed.

Hollywood movies? I can read sophisticated dialogue from 17th century Shakespeare's dramas and understand most of it. :) Face it, Lyzko, English IS easy. No other language in the world is anywhere near angielszczyzna in terms of relative effortlessness when it comes to learning it up to, more or less, B2 level.

Mind you, it's nothing to be ashamed of. Creating a language that is both simple and yet able to express complex ideas is no simple feat. Well done, English-speaking nations! Thank you for giving us this useful (and simple) tool to communicate. :)

English is labeled as "easy"

Well, I suppose it's the lack of complicated declension system and grammatical gender that makes English easier to learn up to, let's say, B2 level (C1 and C2 levels are a completely different matter). That's why it is the most popular international language. It would take significantly more time for most people in the world to achieve anything close to B2 in German, Polish, French or Japanese.

Polish is impossible for non-Slavic speakers to learn

Well, I've heard a German DSD teacher delivering a speech in (almost) perfect Polish to her students, to congratulate them on getting the diploma, so it's hard but not impossible. :)

History / What do Poles owe to Jews? [593]

founded on Sarmatism. Meaning, it was Serbian state.

What??? Sarmatism is a purely Polish idea and concept. What has Serbia to do with it?

if Poland deflect from papacy

That's what we should do. I agree with the words of Polish pre-WW2 foreign minister Józef Beck, who said:

"Vatican is one of the most responsible parties for the tragedy of my country. Too late had I realised that we conducted foreign policies serving the egoistic agenda of the Catholic Church."

pl.wikiquote.org/wiki/J%C3%B3zef_Beck

Roman-catholic Church has been one of the most destructive forces in Polish history. Thwarting Polish spirit, freedom struggles and uprisings - one could write books on the topic. Poland would be in a completely different place if the counter-reformation had failed and we had followed either the Lutheran or Reformed path.
