This is what has happened on this thread. What more evidence do you need? However, if you're now saying to me (as the forum's self-appointed spokesperson) that you believe Cypriots on this Forum do fully embrace their island's unique culture, then that's great. (Though I think you'd agree there are some, of the Muslim-extracted variety, that don't appear able to do this - at least not openly).
Is that the best thing you can offer me Chip?
This whole thing started because you are under the impression that Cypriots do not embrace their Cypriot culture.
I ask you to quantify this and you can't, hence we are wasting our time.
If by not embracing our Cypriot culture you mean that Cypriots are also embracing their Hellenic roots, then you are going to be hitting a brick wall I'm afraid.
Because in essence this is what this is all about, but you just are not man enough to admit it and come clean with your agenda.
Better consult your book of Cypriot philosophy Chip!
You want to know why Cypriots of Muslim faith don't want to embrace their Cypriot Culture Chip? Because they stole more than 2 times their fair share Chip, and now live of the proceeds of stolen GC property and land Chip. Their whole society has been corrupted Chip by money and greed Chip. So how are YOU going to get them to embrace our Cypriot culture Chip? By denouncing our Hellenic inheritance Chip. Is that your answer? I should hope not Chip, because it is hard enough taking you seriously as it is Chip.
So overall, this is not much of a debate at all, until you finally come clean and answer the following question:
And what evidence can you present to us that there are some Cypriots on this forum who do not embrace their unique Cypriot characteristics?
If they embrace their Hellenism does this mean they do not embrace their Cypriot culture? Is that all you got Chip?
FFS, you don't need to consult your book of Philosophy to answer that one. It can't be that hard Chip.
Unless you naively started this thread as another opportunity to slag on Cypriot Hellenic roots, then you should have planned and executed this thread much better than what you have, because as it stands right now, you have come on CF making sweeping statements such as:
Some restaurants in London describe this as a Greek cheese. I think this is evidence of Cypriots not entirely happy to embrace the various and enriching elements of Cypriot heritage. Would you agree?
Bloody Halloumi Cheese!
Well Chip, you are going to have to do much better than that.
So let's have it chip.
I asked you to provide credible evidence of Cypriots not embracing their Cypriot culture.
So far you have provided nothing to embellish the debate in this thread of yours.
Maybe you can not answer my simple question because deep down this thread is not about proving your sweeping statement that Cypriots are not embracing their Cypriot Heritage because that is not your agenda.
Perhaps your agenda is to slag and spit on Hellenism and Greece. Well I'm sorry Chip, because as long as Paphiti is around you will not get away with your games and I will always be around to hold you to account for your stupidity.
Some debate this is Chip.
So far, I'm the only one that has remained on topic, and when I ask you some questions about the very essence of the point you are trying to make, you offer nothing but Halloumi Cheese...
So what are you waiting for Chip?
Give us an example of Cypriots not being happy to embrace their Cypriotness.
