History / Polish civilization is older than English or French. Why do Poland follow them? [64]

o fak,

BB

coz that:
Architecture
Literature
well skilled army
administration
LAW

all of those civilisations had every of those aspects of civilisations so romans, greeks, egyptians were civilisated. there are more civlisations ofc. but i gave You only example

The tribes back then had architecture and law too...

The quality of architecture or law. Why we can talk for hours abot roamnian anfd greeks architecture but as far as druids architecture we will say : Stonehedge and they lived in forest. ( what is not a true)

Why we can talk for 6 months about roman law ( i had this subject on my university) but as far as druid law we will say : it was sth. like it.

Life / Why Aren't The Shops in Poland Open on Sundays? [82]

In shops wchich are opened can work today only owner.

Seanus your argument with nukes is ****. You don`t respect people who want to relax on holidays and on Sunday and this is more important for them than your posibility of buying chips today. Their property and they can closed it for one day a week.

SEANUS

Today is national day. We celebrate the victory in 1920 also is the day of polish army, therefore the shops are closed. On the normal Sunday shops are open, although I almost never buy then. IMO when is national celebrating, shops should be closed. I don`t see anything wrong with that some people ( shops owner) want to go on the holidays, and their shops are closed for 2 weeks. I don`t see anything wrong with that shops owner don`t want to work in Sundays, their shops so they can. If you wanna boycot them, here you are, I won`t

Genealogy / Von Straski, Polish surname? [22]

you don˛t understand the term, sometimes polish poor or normal nobles was richest than western aristocrat.

in polish language

noble + man who can prove his noblness + some papers and acts from kigs dukes etc.

aristocrat+ noblman who have lands like small european country like belgium, andorra, or netherlands, very rich

this 10% were rightful nobles equel to radziwils, potocki, aristocrats who had lands as big as England

Genealogy / Von Straski, Polish surname? [22]

Well, fair enough but if your assumption is correct then Poland must have had the highest percentage of nobles in the entire world. :)

Indeed Poland had the highest percentage of nobles in the entire world.;)

When in all Europe the common percentage of nobles in society was about 2% in Poland it was more than 10%. Therefore for foreigner nobles the aristocracy term is more apprpriate.

Polska szlachta was different than europeans aristocracy. when in france the king pay them and treated like slaves, in Poland rather we were talking that everzbody can be a king, so he is equel to us.

Genealogy / Von Straski, Polish surname? [22]

skysoulmate

I didn`t say that ski is/was reserved.

However, this is not exactly true indeed not exactly but mainly. There are people without ski etc. with noble roots, and also there are people with ski but they have nothing common with szlachta... But mainly ...;)

It could mean that but often it didn't. Probably a myth created by those who's names end with a -ski. :)

you are wrong, ski, icz is the end wchich show from where the family is, ( what village/ or town they posses)

Genealogy / Von Straski, Polish surname? [22]

Von is like ski in the end in polish names, and like de or de la in french.
It was sign of noblness. In 1795 Prussia took some polish lands, and some families wanted the confirmation of their noblness. In the view of prussian germanization politics ;) there were created some strange names like von straski etc.

The secend theory is that polish man " straski" wanted to be noblman, but he didn`t have the proof ( the "ski" is not enough) so he buy the title of baron or other.

But the "von" is definitely indicating something german!

NO BB. It used to be. But there are plenty of Polish nobles families wchich got confirmation of their nobleness from prussian king ...

My friend is an example so i know what i`m talking ;)

Strawski or straski may be a polish name . "Von" could say us that Straski confirm his noblness in Prussia.

News / New cross war in Warsaw [530]

Crap...at least the germanic woman had a say in her marriage, could choose her husband and wasn't just a convenient bed warmer without any rights, forced to hide her face!

BB, In theory in theory. According to canonic law women also have right to choose a husband.

"force to hide face"

what are you talking about?

As far as polish chrisitianity we are talkin : POLONIA SEMPER FIDELIS.

aa as far as modern polish society like all society is divided , for example In my opinion the Cross should stay ( I don1t want obelisk ;)) but everybody have his own opinionm and I respect it.

What is more this Cross case is no important in comparison to the new VAT. The " liberal" goverment is not as liberal as I want it to be, so they have one vote less and UPR one more.

News / New cross war in Warsaw [530]

But please leave the rest of us alone.

According to statistic "the rest " in Poland is about 3%.

The Germanic law was not written on paper but more fair than anything the Christians came up with...and so on.

bulshit, German law was poor and un fair ( example: marriage started when it was consumed) when the man raped girl she automatically was her wife. It was impossible in Roman LAW and Canonic law.

That's why pagans and non-christians were burned on stakes or beheaded for centuries....

That`s why christians were burned on stakes or beheaded or killed on arenas for centuries....

History / Destruction of Ukrainian churches in Poland in 1938 [273]

Ok my personal opinion is that polish nationalistic policy in XX century toward Ukrainians was a mistake. i prefered militicultural I RP than polish attempt to polonized Ukrainians.

PS I`m Polish, My ancestors are from the east part od Poland ( Stanisławów) now the west part of Ukrainian Rep. ( they had to escape from there so I undarstand also Sok`s point of view)

Language / Polish regional accents? [141]

For instance Franciszkańska Czy (Trzy) spoken by JPII would be an example. Or the hard '£' of Podlasie and Podkarpacie

Prenouncing "trzy" is a mistake

News / Who are you voting for in the 2010 Poland's presidential elections and why? [82]

He feels women shouldn't get so smart or leave the country. It's called reading between the lines.

or leave the country???

he is against women right to vote, not right to candidate. Ofc it is rather showing desire.
there is no real posibility to introduce this idea, due to our constitution. I would like to remind you that Poland introduce women's suffrage before UK did it. Don`t worry about it.

His point of view on women is controversial and imho we should focus on other more importatnt things than unreal ideas
