I don't hate my neighbors. I posted where Greece is 5 posts above and then some ethnic FYROMian started posting his propaganda, saying that Greeks are Blacks, Asians etc (I'm surprised he didn't call us Amerindians). What should I do? Not reply? I think my reaction was very civilized. He...

Thank you! I didn't know about the last quote by Goethe in your link.

Yeah I said of course that people in the villages are not mixed but I didn’t mean the others were mixed recently or much. I meant since ancient years the mixing in these areas has been more than in the isolated parts of Greece. They are darker than the rest but that doesn't mean they are dark...

Do you really believe that you are being serious right now?! Your country's propaganda doesn't fit in a forum where people have common sense. As for the black Greeks etc and Greeks not being the same as in the past, DNA studies in skeletons found from Ancient Greece reveal that Greeks have the...

You are very confusing. Where exactly are you from? Macedonia is the dark orange area here (the rest is depended territories) and Pella was the birth place of the Great Alexander. Which part of it is the place you come from...

When he says Greece he means Greece of the past and today. That is from Macedonia (not FYROM) and all the way down to the south parts of Greece. Pelasgians and Helladic Greeks lived in the Modern Greek mainland. Albania and FYROM don't really fit in this territory, except for North Epirus in...

You are just repeating your country's propaganda. Ancient Greeks' and Modern Greeks' DNA is surprisingly similar. Modern Greeks have evolved since ancient times like every population does, but their DNA has remained practically the same. In fact Modern and Ancient Greeks, have almost the same %...

Greeks during ancient times were no more fair haired than we are now. You can find a decent number of Greeks with very light characteristics now as you could also find back then according to descriptions. We didn't change much since then. On the contrary, Greeks and Italians during those times...

There is no recognized republic of macedonia. Only FYROM. There is no Macedonian language. Ancient Macedonians spoke Greek. Great Alexander (his name means protector (alex) of men (andres)) and his father Philipos (his name means friend (philos) of horses (ipos)) were Greek, spoke Greek and...

Have you see the actress Sissy Spacek? I think she looks exactly like the woman in the right http://www.nndb.com/people/758/000023689/

Obviously my choice is the first οption

Exactly that is what I'm saying. If we had changed our religion we would be muslims now not christians. Religion isn't something you change every 10 years or so. If you convert you stay that way. And those Greeks who did convert within Greek grounds moved to Turkey after Greece became...

Around 1960 Greeks and especially Cretans had the highest (or at least one of the highest) life expectancy in the world. Scientists concluded that Cretan Mediterranean diet was the reason for their longevity so this type of diet became really popular around the world and it still is today. If...

I have slight myopia (around 2 degrees in each eye) and I wear contact lenses. I plan on having lasik surgery as soon as my myopia becomes stable (I'm still young :D ). My dad and my brother have perfect eyesight (ok my dad started developing presbyopia at the age of 47) and my mom has 1.5...

I believe you when you say that a big factor for such practices in Turkey is education, but, as I said in my previous post, my main concern is for the problem to be resolved and not for it's cause. Of course christianity made mistakes in the past, no one is perfect. What matters though is for...

You are absolutely right. Melanoma should be taken seriously, especially in countries with a lot of sunshine. I believe it is more dangerous for people who tend to tan fast and a lot than for people who are pale. People who are pale are aware that they get burned easily when they are exposed to...

I agree with the majority of the things you said in your post except for the part I quoted. I know as well as you do, that the Turkish people that live in the coastline of Turkey, close to the Aegean Sea, or people who live in Constantinople (most of these people have western roots, mostly from...

It's amazing what sunscreen can do to our skin! 80% of the wrinkles we get while aging is due to sun damage. My dermatologist's instructions were very clear when I visited him the first time when was 14: I must wear sunscreen everyday, whether it's summer or winter. My complexion is very fair...

A series from Argentina is currently being broadcasted in Greece, called Patito Feo. I was very surprised to see that every single actor in the series looks very European to me. I know that in many Latin American series they tend to use actors that look European although they don't really...
