Yes, they do, and the fly in my pants will swear to that.

PS. Never do a google image search of this word.

Whatcha mean never do a google search? Are you one of those Mordan likes to refer to as smurfs?

OK, have it your own way - I saw what I saw, you can't deny what I saw with my own eyes. Doesn't change things for me - you live in a brutal, barbarian police state and I feel sorry for you that you don't notice it.

Of course I can deny what you saw! After all, you deny that I lived in Russia for a year!

I just gave you an example of one particular person, I know more people, 4 or 5, probably more - that Hungarian lady had a roommate from France (!) and she too was fluent in about a year, there was this Welsh guy taught by my next-door neigbour, a uni professor, there were others, I just don't see the point of listing them all here. Why don't you come out with it - you've never been to Russia for that long.\

Can't I just claim to be stupid and/or slacker? Wouldn't that still put me in Russia for a year?

Entirely designed to disorient you. Prove to me that you are Russian by identifying from which films these 4 characters come from. 2 of them are real easy. See if you have a Big Russian Soul.

Information SO not needed.

Because I have grounds, OK.

None of the faces in your avatar look familiar to me. Actually, I don't watch that many Russian films. I think they are mostly boring. I prefer British films. But that doesn't make me less Russian than I am. So there.

I assume the 4th unknown one is the bottom right, or top left?

top left...bottom right is my favorite movie...

Being based on list in KV's topic
http://masterrussian.net/mforum/viewtopic.php?t=6276
I think the movies are:

1. 2.
3. 4.

1. А зори здесь тихие (though this actress looks the same in few movies).
2. Собачье сердце.
3. 17 мгновений весны.
4. Кин-дза-дза (It is very dark to discern something but the dark is most characteristic for "Kin-dza-dza").

the ones that chat in this topic, did you all answered the question about religion?
and do you believe in god?

not bad, not bad! But number four is wrong... it is Formula Lyubvi! Impressed me with the first one though... you actually remembered! Actually that very scene (when she sees her "love" for the first time and is in complete shock) is my favorite of all time... undescribable!

Petite: What about you, answer your own question? Do you believe in God?

I heard on a radio broadcast, that Australia is like 95% (or some high percentile) non-believers.
......

I'm a Christian (Pentecostal demonination) and I cannot see how so many people, whether in America, Russia, Australia, or anywhere else, can not look into their heart and see God. (just my opinion)

And I agree with someone, whoever said that most people who say that they are Christians are actually faking it. A sure fire way to distinguish between real Christians and fake Christians in a church. Watch the altar. If someone goes up to pray, God is real to them. If someone else goes up to pray with them, to help them.. that person is a real Christian. The people who walk by without being bothered to help.. most of the time, they're not serious about their faith and could even be said to be fake.

A pastor once told me, if you are looking for a real Christian to date, to watch the altar. When the service is over, the girls who stand around talking about where they and their friends are going to eat at after they leave.. (don't pick them because their hearts are selfish and shallow). The ones that goes to help pray for someone at the altar (pick them because their hearts are selfless and serious).

-Just a helpful thought-
