enkidu:
If I am questioning something - do I support it? I see it as the contrary. Really. I have no intention to blame anyone of anything.
Maybe it's my personal traits. I was born long time ago in the deep socialism. I was learned a lot of "obvious truths" that shouldn't be questioned. And I get used to questioning everything.
For instance: I was told that the Soviet Union is our biggest and most devoted friend, and we just can't survive without this friendship. I asked myself: Why? Is that true? And I begin to research. Mind this: at the beginning, I didn't exclude the possibility that what I was told IS the truth. I just need some proofs. That is all.
Questioning everything "obvious" is a common Eastern-European trait.

And no - I don't think this is trolling. There are some important questions need to be asked. Of course we can talk forever how corrupted the Polish police is - but is there any point in these discussions?

You have explained yourself quite well here, Thank you.

Americans question everything aswell, The real question is what to do about it.
We question everything. The beginning is a little questionable but he gets to the heart of the matter eventually.

...someone like you who's been raised by animals ;)...

enkidu:
It is intended to be somehow offensive?
Why? I din't do anything wrong. There is no need for insults. Really.

No wonder you never replied. I had a pretty lengthy explanation here how I thought your screen name Enkidu was related to an ancient Epic of Gilgamesh mythology and the fact Enkidu was raised by animals.
Enkidu

So no - no offense intended at all; I simply misunderstood what your screen name meant - thought you'd understand the reference. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enkidu

I guess my explanation went to the RT tbut it's now gone?? Typical selective censorship to remove the reply and yet to keep the question?!?!




God damn it (yes I said it) I hate censorship of any and all kinds. Especially when it's totally arbitrary and superficially illogical.
Censors

==> Censors of the world - don't move! <==

Yep I read it. But for me - someone who is raised by animals is Tarzan or Mowgli. Enkidu is a little more than that. I mean - he has got a few more important attributes. That's why I missed your remark.

As for the rest of four post (about censorship) - I completely lost the ball at this point. Of course I will analyze this thread for any clues, but it would be nice if you would tell me in plain English what do you men, please?


BTW - I would like to thank ever one who contributed to this thread.
It was not what I expected, but nonetheless - I learned something.
THX, guys

Ok, that's fair enough.

That part has nothing to do with your or my post per se; I'm simply arguing against the Random Thread mentality here.

I've never been able to understand it as it is so illogical and so selective. Some posts which seemingly aren't "on topic" at all are left alone while others are removed even when part of the reply is on the subject..

Often you'll see someone asking a question and there's never an answer. ...or the other way around - there's a "reply" to a non-existing question - as if the person is talking to him/herself. Usually the other part of the equation has been exiled to the RT.

That thread in itself is a big joke - often there's like 20 pages to go through to find a possible reply that might be hiding in there somewhere....

It's their forum so I respect that - however, that doesn't mean I have to accept it and that's why I speak out against it.

A week or so ago a person started a thread titled "dual citizenship" and within days a moderator changed the title of the thread to "dual citizenship - US doesn't care if you don't give up Polish passport". If you read the thread the person who started it didn't want the new title and wanted it changed back. Nope - the mods know better!

That was wrong in my view... RT mentality!


So no, my last part of the reply had nothing to do with you.

By now, I don't know if Osama Bin Laden is even alive. Yes, I know about Haiti, and a number of other places, though I might not know them all, Guatanamo : now, everyone knows that was never true - which is pure logic ... on the otherhand, I ain't average, and can't say what the average person might know - just some of them. Again, logic, and knowlege of human nature must be aplied, to know that, and then you'd know that many people believe, rather than know - and often, they believe what they deside is true. All together, then, it does not matter what news they see/read/hear.

Oh you mean that long bearded Muslim fellow, whom lobbyists for mass Oil industrialists paid billions in underground funds to government strategists in order to hire him?

Yea, he's alive. I believe he recently purchased his third Maserati.
