    Racism

    There is a lot of confusion into racism issues these days. For the last few decades Anglo-Saxon countries, primarily America, Britain and Canada feverishly have been trying to suppress people’s right and freedom to express and exercise their national, cultural identity. The aim is to create...

    Hitler, Religion, and Morality

    In regards to Aryan, as discussed on another thread, Hitler sent an expedition to Tibet ( Buddhism ) in 1936 to 1939 to discover if Aryans are basically buddists and with this declare an aryan people void of the current religions in Germany . With this finding he would have a means of replacing...

    Hitler, Religion, and Morality

    You didn’t get the point. I’m not talking about religion, I’m not talking about haplogroups, I’m not talking about Hitler, I’m not talking who’s superior or who’s inferior. I’m talking about white and black rabbit and reasoning as to why black rabbit can’t in his lineage create white rabbit...

    Hitler, Religion, and Morality

    Hitler was neither Christian nor atheist, but he was religious. He recognized Aryanism. The idea is that the original speakers of the Indo-European languages and their descendants up to the present day constitute a distinctive race or subrace of the larger Caucasian race. They identified the...

    Greatest German contributions to the world ?

    For me the biggest german contributions are following: Nikolaus Otto – inventor of internal- combustion engine. All cars to date are powered by this type of engine, except of a few failed electric ones. This invention allowed Mercedes to manufacture the first automobile in the world. Albert...

    Greatest Ancient Roman contribution(s) to the world

    Wine had been produced in ancient Egypt three millennia prior to Greeks or Romans. Theatrical culture and amphitheatres were well established in ancient Greece. Romans copied that and extended to other forms of entertainment. Technological discoveries of arch and dome enabled Romans to construct...

    Otto von Bismarck Laws are like sausages, it is better not to see them being made. People never lie so much as after a hunt, during a war or before an election. Anyone who has ever looked into the glazed eyes of a soldier dying on the battlefield will think hard before starting a war. When...

    Moldova - Romanian gas pipeline, who will benefit?

    It’s a welcome direction for Moldova. Gazprom is holding countries for ransom by dictating gas price. Ultimately, of course if you don’t want to buy, don’t buy it. But how you are going to heat up your premises? Until and unless other energy resources are developed, European countries will...

    Economy Hello from Latvia!

    Hi, there is no such thing as right or wrong way to extract money by government. I agree, it is not fair to collect money in such a way. For example, in London there is so called congestion charge whereupon entering central London by car you're subjected to tax unless your car is registered...

    Society Who is most generous in Europe?

    In order to better understand charities, one should better understand countries’ tax system. How much Americans or Canadians pay in taxes? In Germany normal tax rate is around 40%. Why in America I can choose between paying taxes and donating to charity, while in Germany you can pay one billion...

    Society Who is most generous in Europe?

    I think Germany is the most generous. I don't know about charities but it contributes threefold more to EU budget than UK, even though Germany is not threefold bigger.

    Thracians spoke Balto Slavic language

    I’m really surprised how some of the words share so much similarity between Lithuanian and Thracian languages. Having said that, we cannot rule out a possibility that languages in time import and export some of the words. The idea of common roots between Balto-Slavic languages is being...

    Thracians spoke Balto Slavic language

    According to legend, Grand Duke Gediminas at his time of reign dreamt of an iron wolf howling on a hilltop and consulted a pagan priest for its interpretation. He was told: "What is destined for the ruler and the State of Lithuania, is thus: the Iron Wolf represents a castle and a city which...

    Thracians spoke Balto Slavic language

    I have to read into these numbers’ theory. I’m not familiar with this yet. Therefore I could not give a solid opinion in this moment of time. What we have been taught in schools though, that there were west balts residing near Baltic sea in current Lithuania, Latvia, ex-Prussia, Belarus...

    Greatest Ancient Roman contribution(s) to the world

    In my opinion concrete, arches and viaducts are the most important. I doubt that they invented wine. Mass entertainment was established in ancient Greece before. But Romans brought civilization to barbaric Europe at that time.

    Visiting Scotland

    The best way to explore Scotland is by car. I can suggest you a very beautiful route. If you’re coming from London on M74, when you reach Glasgow, look for Fort William direction. You should get on to A82 road eventually. I have never been in Glasgow, so I don’t know whether it’s worth...
