Are Polish Christians here?

Are Polish Christians who share all 10 testaments and don't forget that human life starts since conception?
Please appear here in this topic.

Strict christians scare me.

Poland is majorty Catholic but that is not to say everyone - also for the ones who are, I dont think everyone is that strict!! Actually I dont think many are strict at all...

I hope so ;)

And what about Protestants in Poland ? I know there are just a few of them, but does someone know how many are they ?...

Nobody in Poland is strict catholic because everybody in Poland steals so that is one of the Ten Commandmants out of the window for a start!

You have to sin in order to confess.
If you have nothing to confess,
you're obviously not trying.

- A non-Catholic

we have about 150 000 of protestants

1997-2001 we had PM who was Lutheran.

didn't even know that

Thanks Lukasz ;) And do you know if there are more Protestants now, than before...? :p Just curious to know about them ;)

.....

definately not, in the past all protestants refugies were coming to Poland (during religous wars) and a lot of Poles were protestant as well , it was very close our nobels (szlachta) would convert Poland in to protestant country. I can writte mor about that if you want or create new subiect about religions in Poland and history.

Grzegorz,

The question was about Christians on this forum not about thiefs. Don't permit Michal keep you away from subject.
As to Michal I can't understand him. Ha has a Polish wife and his child has a Polish mother. I'm sure he doesn't think so.
Michal, Чего Вы здесь всех обижаете. Я же общаюсь с русофобами спокойно, а чем поляки могут обидеть англичанина?

Thanks ;) It'd be weird if today Poland was Protestant...what would be the differences ? Maybe economic differences, ethical differences...

That is very interesting but what about Christians in this forum?

I was impressioned by the news about a Polish woman who didn't abandoned her wounded husband (a railway worker) for 19 years he was out of conciousness away from any contact with the world as a vegetal.
She tried to moove him every hour during all these years.
For me that was the best news about Poland. The most glorious today because such women should exist more in Poland.
Michal, I suspect such women were in UK in Victorian age only. As to thiefs they are abundant in all states

Poles, what do you know about her? Is she strict Catholic?
It was told that married couple had 6 children

Protestant or Catholic??

Each strict Christian. Not arians as The society of watch tower

??, the watch tower is the Johova Witnesses, they are a cult, i am a protestant, have an assoc. degree in theology, so can you elaborate about strict?? we just believe what the bible says, as the inerant word of God. So what people dont like about what it says, then they need to talk to God about it, The NT is written on Greek, so one word has one meaning, not like english, the word Love can be one of 5, one is Phillio (word we get Philadelphia, city of brotherly love) which means brotherly type of love, so any word love in the text, you ned to find out which it is, so when you mean strict, i look at is as proper translation. is this what you are looking for??, by the way , welcome to PF.

There are very few Christians who adhere to what the Bible says.
If you were to follow everything, there would be no priests and church hierarchy.
There would be no shaving of beards or eating of shellfish and so on.
Some things would be better, some things would be worse.
Beards don't suit me and I like eating little sea creatures.
I do believe in love your neighbour, and that you shouldn't steal or kill.

Yes sir,
it depends on what you mean, i know that sounds silly, but Jesus taught about legalism, do you remember when the pharisis asked why he was gleening corn on the sabath, and he told them when you are hungry do you not eat (paraphrasing), he was saying there is a higher law, and that is of life, the law of life. Jesus came to fullfil what the law could not fullfil which is righteousness, so we are not subject to the law, because it can not make a man righteous, only believing in the son makes a man righteous, and this is not of man, but because of Christ, man can not be righteous on his own, and that is what the law showed. :)

I'm not against the concept of church, even though it is not a part of the Bible.
Every religion needs some sort of organisation.
Churches at their best, do much for communities.
There are those whose beliefs are not strong, but being part of a congregation gives order to life and keeps people together.
But, on the other hand, it can be devisive.
I prefer to believe in what I believe in and leave being part of the community (at whatever level) to the secular world.

I'm Orthodox
What is your denomination?

Actually the church is a bog part of the bible, Jesus said to Paul, that this rock will I build my church. Not as a organization I agree, man has made it an organization.

you will always have people who can not get along, and devisive, I agree, you know it only takes 2 people to mess something up, have you had a bad experience with a church, becasue I am a memeber of a church that is fantastic and very much into outreach in the community, this is in the mid west (illinois), very much different from the east coast.
And I can totally understand this, i have felt the same at times!!

I gotot a Baptist Church, but i consider myself to be just a christian, not wanting to be affiliated with a brand name. I would rather be outside of mans rules and just follow the word of God.

I know what you mean, but we call them "commandments" here, unless I misunderstood your meaning. ;)

Anyway, I'm not Polish, but I'm also curious to know how popular faith is in Poland. I consider myself an Orthodox Christian, though denomination isn't all-important to me. I have nothing against the Romans. :)

Yo Light man , I know that in a town where my friends is from Catholicism is hugh, and if you recall when Pope John Paul II came to Poland when the Ruskies were still in town it turned the country upside down and i believe that he is as well as Ronald Reagan, i believe that faith is a hugh part of thier lives, though as in all societies there is always the next generation that sometimes pulls away from what momma amd poppa was taught, but in this situation i believe that it is very strong, friends of ours from Vienna who are Polish citizens are very very strong in their faith.

- And now the Orwellian yet non-British porkey pretending to be a-Polonophobic-English-patriot is playing an expert on stealing in Poland.

Apparently, the porkey assumes that since it comes from the Orwellian piggy tribe (that has grown fat from deception, theft, extortion, drug dealing, murder) then it will surely succeed in the forum members' taking it for an authority on vice, including stealing.
:)

LoL ;)
