Does anyone care about Greeks and their sour marbles? They ought to grow some marbles and move on.

Perhaps focus on the crime rate, the economy, and the hideosness of their male population.

Finders keepers. Greece lost, live with it. Of course Greeks are always welcome to come visit them at the British Museum.

the marbles were not lost at anytime, they were stolen straight from the Parthenon

elgin just came to greece, stole the marbles removing them from the Parthenon, brought them to england and later sold them to the british museum

Was this before or after the then current rulers used the Parthenon as a powder house?

Excellent!

Seriously, the only good reason for keeping them is to wind Greek posters up on messageboards. Otherwise I'd fully support giving them back.

btw, you do know that one of the biggest reasons of the financial status of greece is because of the terrible loans (= incredibly high rates) we were forced to get from the brits, the french and others during the revolution of 1821? i think we managed to repay the initial loans (with other loans of course) after a century or so....

I wonder why does everybody call them "marbles"? They are sculptures, a form of art, you know. "Marbles" makes them seem just like a building material.
