Hello!

I don't know, whether this is the right group, but I could't find a group
soc.culture.hungary at my site. I'm looking for someone speaking hungarian.
I need a translation for the sentence (accented letters are important):

  "Welcome back to karlsruhe!"

Please answer by mail.
Thank's for your answer in advance
  Uwe

You might try the CIA World Fact Book.  I don't think it contains a
breakdown acccording to gender but it does list how many votes each
person had.  It is updated every year and is archived at Project Gutenburg.

Turning the other cheek does not mean letting someone slit your throat.
It is not contradictory for a Christian to defend himself when attacked.
As to not having a dominant religion, you must be joking.  Secular
does not mean non-religious.  Well over 90% of Hungarians are Christian,
though you would have a pont if you pointed out that they don't all
practice.

What does this have to do with anything?  Of course no one has the
right to destroy another nation, but in our politically correct times
it is the majority who must fear the minority.  Just as it is true that
no nation has the right to use force to destroy another, no nation has the
right to silently overwhelm by migration another nation, and thereby
destroy it.  What this has to do with the original topic I don't know,
but I must reply to your liberally based injustice.  It would not be
any more right if Europeans had taken the Americas from the native Indians
by peacefully migrating among them in huge numbers, than it was for the
land to be taken by force.  Both means of domination are wrong.

Nationalism is an incorrect label to try to put on what I've said, as
nationalism is based on the hatred of others, and on a feeling of
superiority over them.  Since I have never argued that one people is
superior to another, what I have said is not Nationalism, at least
according to the common useage of the term.

You have every right to disagree with me, but you have no right to ask
me to not offer my opinions.  I respect that you feel your opinion is
correct and mine is not, but both are valid points of view.  Your
embarrassment is your business, not mine.
