I recently paid for some local tacos using Bitcoin. My friend who was unfamilar with Bitcoin thought it was strange, like I technically didn't pay for them or something. We got into discussing Bitcoin and one of the questions he asked me was: "Why would you want Bitcoins instead of cash?". For a second I didn't know what to say; then I thought about it and here is what I came up with. Feel free to contribute to this.
1) More security (especially if you are careful).
2) Bitcoins are a potential investment, cash is not. Paper currency only really goes down in value, Bitcoins have a lot of potential to be worth more as time goes on.
3) Fast, worldwide transactions at your fingertips.
4) Similar to #3, but it's a universal currency. It's legal in most countries of the world and you don't need any kind of currency conversion to send money to people in a different country than your own.
This explains it. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I have doubts. Somehow I don't believe in religions. But somehow, religions are the only things that makes a human behave themselves. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

I should probably spend it, otherwise, maybe its value is going to fade someday. But who knows? ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I doubt someone can teach you on here, but I'll give you a few tips that helped me along the way. I speak English very well and I never took the time to learn grammar at school, but rather spent my time watching movies, listening to songs, playing video games, etc. when I was a kid and because of that I always had the upper hand on those who paid for English classes.
So I suggest you do the same. Go watch/play/read/listen to English stuff and even if you don't understand it, subtitles or translations (to some degree) can help you a lot. It's not something you learn over the night, but it will surely prepare you for one on one conversations.
After that you can hit up some people on social media and try to make friends with them, while letting them know ahead that you're not very good when it comes to English. Be careful though, some people may not have the patience to talk to foreigners.
Apart from that, you can always search up random words on Google and learn some basic stuff that you would say in daily situations. Just don't start off with grammar, because I think it slows people down a lot in the process and might even make them quit early.
This should do the trick. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

This question mostly goes to americans (or residents of any other country where it is legal). Do you have any firearms? For what purpose do you have it and have you ever used it? Everyone else can discuss if people should have a right to have a gun or not.
I don't have a gun, and I despise to the people for having one or even the person whom ever invented it. It just made the world so wrong and cruel. ![Embarrassed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/embarrassed.gif)

You should be glad that they don't know it yet. Just save your bitcoins until they all do, after that, welcome to the rich club. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)
