You keep misunderstanding what I say. It's not about me it's about them. If they manage to become self-supported they won't need to immigrate. Instead they have a dozen of children when they cannot support their own self. I wish to see them prosper and wouldn't mind helping them if they honestly want to do so. Allowing a small minority of them to work in Europe doesnt really solve their problem, does it? Look at the bigger picture and you might realise that I am right. :wink:


I know that having no money and making lots of children wont help the situation. But they are not all like that. If you were born in a poor family and a poor country you wont be able to become rich in one day, one year or whenever. But you did not speak about them having lots of children....you spoke about their "stupid" religion and country with no real democracy. In which lines I misunderstood you?

You said allow them to work in Europe wont solve the problem....yes of course it wont but wont calling them stupid right?

Even if some of the population sees what you see...that their policies, laws or they way they think is not helping them how they can change a whole country system?

Take as an example ourselves...do you see mistakes in out government or your government or your religion or your compatriots mentality...can you change it from one day to the other? Would help if you had someone or lots of people feel pity for you or judging you?

Put yourself into their situation and you might understand why I was bother to reply to you. It doesnt sound nice when you call them stupid and most of all doesnt help in any way.

And all these start from a thread about protestation. :roll:

I didn't call the people stupid but the islamic religion. If you ever read the Koran you will see why. Nobody is perfect, didnt claim that I or Cyprus is. I insist that a fundamelist religion like islam is keeping many countries undeveloped. What is your solution towards their problem? I didn't hear one... :roll:

Let me guess...lets turn them all to Christians and we will solve the world! :shock: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

Kurupetos I am not God and did not say I can save them or have the solution ready in my pocket...but even if I had some thoughts it will never be changing their religion or calling them stupids or whatever.

1. do "they" have a problem?
2. you talk about "them" living in an undeveloped country. compared to what? because there are some countries that, next to CY, make you look undeveloped.
3. if i heard it once, i heard it a thousand times, "gg, you don't understand, it's the cypriot way..." well, maybe i am getting to learn to accept the cypriot way, perhaps you should learn to accept the islamic way as well.

i know your response wasn't aimed at me, so my apologies for sticking my nose in here. as an outsider, it just seems so...absurd...perhpas hypocritical...
