Polonia / What do Poles think of how they are treated in Germany, in comparison to the Muslim migrants [30]

Stupid Brits used to be a white Christian country.

It was inevitable that Britain, having colonized many non-white countries, would eventually provide pathways to UK citizenship or asylum for citizens of its former colonies. Just like the US bringing slaves to the US. You can call it stupid today, but back then it was considered thoughtful or good business.

Poland never formally colonized overseas territories.

But Germany colonized other countries. They should not complain about migrants today, oder?

Prayer: talking to God silently or mumbling.

So people go to church to sit in silence... Maybe it's time to visit your local church to verify that.

Despite your age, I and others have to school you over and over again:

Totals Breakdown of Church Buildings / Parishes in the US:

Catholic: ~16,600 (~5% of total)
Protestant (all types): ~235,000-275,000 (~65-75%)
Other Christian: ~22,000-28,000 (~6-8%)
Unaffiliated/Independent (overlaps with above): ~100,000+ (included in Protestant estimates)

These numbers sum to approximately 356,000, aligning with the 2020 Census.

Your attacking "Catholic" (only about 5% of tax-except Christian organizations in the US) clearly shows you are full of sh*t (pun intended). You use words you cannot understand, like "prayer." Better luck next time.

Pope Leo seems reasonable. I just hope they stop all those commercial concerts and business events in Vatican.

That's all you need to know if there is a revolution in America.

My point was that you don't fit any of these categories. I'm sure you remember: "Bóg, Honor, Ojczyzna" ("God, Honor, Homeland"). You associate with Trump, constitution, police, or patriots, but without the "God" element you could be, at best, a North Korean soldier for hire. Without God, America is a scoundrel with morals defined by the meanest or the stupidest person in charge.

Some American posters here perfectly show divide & conquer tactics.

Godless fools have claimed for centuries that "religion controls people." In reality, these fools only need a TV enemy to rage against. Red vs blue, straight vs gay, white vs black, slave vs slave. The elites laugh because it works as planned.

For one leftist moron, there is one rightist moron. It's a constant number.

By the way, how would wearing a concealed weapon by even a hundred of people present at the event have prevented Kirk's death?

Law / Moving to Poland - when to talk to an immigration attorney? [4]

If I was an attorney, I'd ask you to specify your time frame. 0-3 years is a long bracket. What would you like to talk about - if you plan to permanently move to Poland, it would help that you have Polish roots; do you have a Polish passport or ancestors from Poland?

So in general, you need to know when you want to make it happen. I guess a good ball park figure would be to allow a year to arrange things; 3 years is too far away.

Regarding volunteers patrolling schools.. it is impossible. Do you think a school would allow a thug with a gun to protect a school? First, they would have to have no criminal record. Second, they would have to be certified to undergo extensive training. Then, there is a risk they would kill a school staff member thinking it's a criminal - do you realize the liability? The school would not be insurable.

At the very least, private citizens would have to be hired by a professional personal protection service that has its own liability insurance. But nobody would do it for free - except for the regular local police.

Today, I prayed for president Trump's recovery, also for Bill Clinton, and other US presidents. There's something strange going on. A person I know and trust (he is a total Trump supporter) said it wasn't Trump who appeared yesterday on a golf course. Just like Putin, Trump and other statesmen have look alikes. I'm not into what they do, but they are very good at it; after analyzing a picture, they are 100% sure it wasn't Trump. Either way, there's nothing we can do but pray and hope for the best for America.

Off-Topic / God and Religion Talk [277]

God should give free will only to those who can reason and be morally and financially responsible for their actions.

It would equal to creating robots. God doesn't want robots. Love or hate must be free and only free will can guarantee that. Would you like your granddaughters to express love for you only within an hour of you giving them a $100 bill?

Giving free will to a child in the kitchen with sharp knives and boiling water is criminal.

It's the parents' job to make sure their children are not left alone in the kitchen full of knives or boiling water.

God's daily duties

God gave Adam and Eve paradise - a worry free eternal life filled with joy and love. However, they chose to exchange it for an earthly life marked by sin and misery. Because God loves them, He respected their choice and distanced Himself from them. Yet, He did not abandon them; He sent Jesus to atone for humanity's rebellion and sins. God has fulfilled His role and "job" while granting people the freedom to make their own choice.

If you tell your wife you no longer want anything to do with her and leave, what would you expect from her? That she would continue to care for or help you? That's not how relationships work. But she would most likely attend your funeral.

If priests believed in God, they would never touch kids sexually.

Correct, as it would be a violation of God's commandment.

If God existed, he would rip the sex offender's balls and dick instead just passively looking down.

If what you say is true, it would have happened in paradise before Adam and Eve sinned. God gave us free will to do as we please. Our rebellion against God led to the emergence of people like sexual molesters, who will face judgment upon their death.

You should think twice before judging others because, if your wish came true, you probably wouldn't be walking on this earth anymore; neither would I.

I didn't know that a Polish person is the Guinness World Record holder in the highest blood alcohol content ever recorded in a human being:

The 40-year-old Polish man was found unconscious by the side of the road in the village of Tarnowskiej Woli, in south-east Poland, in July 2013. Police at the scene reportedly could not believe the blood test readings, but they were confirmed on his arrival at hospital.

1. You claim that "religion controls people."
2. You then cite news about a priest who could not control himself and committed sexual abuse.

Conclusion: Your initial point is baseless nonsense.

History / 81st Anniversary of Warsaw Uprising [72]

Because communism is a satanic system that rots society from the top down. While warmongering exists in many regimes - modern America is the champion here - communist regimes have claimed the highest body counts in human history, all while claiming to serve 'the people.'

In Poland, real communism didn't exist, or it existed but only for a few years.

"Trump mobilizing up to 1,700 National Guard troops in 19 states to widen crime and immigration crackdown"

the-independent.com/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-national-guard-military-states-cities-b2812837.html

Remember when Trump deployed the deadly COVID vaccines in every state, on every American? Something is really suspicious there. The Democrats, whose Hispanic and Black voters are their bread and butter, do nothing to oppose it.

Whenever the UniParty shares the same goals, they collaborate in silence. Are they planning martial law in the US, and this is merely an "immigration cover-up" test run? Only fools believe it's routine; MAGA fools cheer until the bite lands on their own asses.

Language / Trying to find the Long version of the Serenity Prayer in Polish [3]

I found this; the full version in Polish.

Modlitwa o pogodę ducha

Boże, użycz mi pogody ducha, abym godził się z tym, czego nie mogę zmienić, odwagi, abym zmieniał to co mogę zmienić i mądrości, abym odróżniał jedno od drugiego.

Pozwól mi co dzień żyć tylko jednym dniem i czerpać radość z chwili, która trwa. Daj mi w trudnych doświadczeniach losu ujrzeć drogę wiodącą do spokoju i przyjąć - jak Ty to czyniłeś - ten grzeszny świat takim, jakim on naprawdę jest, a nie takim, jak ja chciałbym go widzieć.

Daj mi ufać, że jeśli posłusznie poddam się Twojej woli, to wszystko będzie jak należy, tak, bym w życiu osiągnął umiarkowane szczęście u Twego boku i na wieki posiadł szczęśliwość nieskończoną.

then wherever gravity takes it.

In that case, gravity would:

1. Have to be stronger than the ball shape, or any shape.
2. Have to work (pull objects) sideways, not vertically.

Maybe you could try doing this experiment the next time you pee into a toilet bowl to confirm it works for you. I tried and failed.

You still fancy a communist mind where manipulated government statistics are adjusted up every quarter. In the 1960's, smart Poles read propaganda in "Trybuna Ludu" and ignored it because it defied reality. I guess you didn't.
