    Default Re: European Union

    Upxl The arguments you put forward do not justify the rush to turn Europe into a country. Indeed they only reinforce my position that Europe should be a trading bloc no more. You're just arguing against yourself.
    Yes, a nice clever remark to make Insane.
    I bow at your wisdom and insight.

    As for the 'people' being too stupid to decide they're own fate, you don't happen to be left wing do you?
    History has proven my statement to be true.
    The future will do nothing less and i aint no commi if that’s what your asking.

    The EU will never work, for the simple fact that Europe is one of the most diverse continents in terms of culture, language, and tradition.
    Bullocks bullocks bullocks.
    Look a little bit further and you see that our cultures are not that different.
    I’ve been almost to every single country in Europe and I’ve also been to many places beyond its borders.
    You want to know what a different culture is?…India is a different culture my friend ,Japan, China Africa, S-America,… those are different cultures!
    Look a little bit further and you’ll see that our differences are really minute.
    Besides as far as I’m concerned this is no argument.
    Were all still humans, that should be more then sufficient.

    Language, as I said I’ve been to almost every country in the EU and I got bye pretty fine.
    Not ones had to get my dictionary out, after a while I stopped bothering buying one.
    Reason? ENGLISH mate!
    What does it matter really, those different languages you can get bye everywhere nowadays certainly in Europe with English.
    And this will only improve.

    Tradition,… for goodness sake, seriously? .
    I have a tradition of urinating in the bushes in my street when I come home from a drinking night,that doesn’t mean I’ll go knocking on my neighbours doors and order them to follow my example.
    They and I don’t care.

    What's more, the EU is based on a common "European idea". There is no common European idea.
    Want an idea I’ll give you an Idea...
    No wait, i guess peace would be a way too simpel and naïve thing to say.
    Nonetheless my answer is at least as ridiculous as your statement.

    Europeans don't think of themselves as Europeans, they think of themselves as British, Germans, Croatians, Russians etc.
    Speak for yourself.
    I’m European first, Belgian second.
    And I know I’m not alone in this.
    Besides;“we made Europa now we must make Europeans.” A very clever man said this.
    Only a matter of time anyway

    I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.
