DIALOGUE IS A CHALLANGE

Beata Pieńkowska

When it comes to lifestyles and life philosophies, we consider ours a tolerant society – in spite of the recent events in Poznań, where, according to official statements, the growing impatience with homosexual rights’ manifestations has been expressed. Basically, we also have got nothing against Jewish, Muslim, Christian Orthodox or Buddhist religious practices – at least as long as they don’t aspire to the role of a dominant religion in Poland, which neither our culture nor tradition give grounds to. We tend to be a lot more emotional when it comes to ideological differences and political arguments we witness in the present parliament, while awaiting for the newly elected president’s inauguration – nevertheless, we shall endure that as well. Holding our long ago assumed positions, we patiently observe the course of events – as we always do.
