Nationality and Race.

How can we solve it? (keep it civilized)

Nationality and Race.

Postby Eric dayi » Sat Sep 22, 2007 5:49 pm

Ok guys, hands up those who knows the difference between Nationality and Race.

You want a debate, let's see if you are capable of debating without being childish, racist and/or stupid enough to hi-jack yet another thread.

Who'se up for it, any of you "clever" GCs like to give it a try?

Oh, forgot to mention, this debate is also open to those who see themselves as "true Cypriots".

ok, nationality and race is just a coincidence..it just happens and U have to accept it like the colour of ur eyes...no other option.

so it is very stupid to argue about it since it just happens and it isnt ur own choice or creation..

The people who are proud of their race or nationality are usually fools or ignorants.. :)

I would like to agree with you Karma, but for some reason that I can do nothing about, I feel proud to be a Cypriot. Don't ask me why. :)
