10041  Other / Politics & Society / Re: If Jesus could do miracle Pilate would never ever allowed his assassination... on: June 29, 2016, 07:16:10 PM
Bringing this kid to Rome... At all costs and it ain't a few judeans barbarians who could have stop Pilate... If you doubt what I just wrote it's because you don't understand anything. What does the Quran reports on those miracles... Good question...

Ps if you wanna see a miracle watch a bird fly and remeber it came in an egg ;-) like the alligator! (And the fish too).
I guess you just don't understand the problem of determinism and irrationality.
Jesus was meant to die. That was the purpose of his life on Earth.
So Pilate couldn't actually do much about it.
And by irrationality I mean that if Pilate was an ideal human being always analyzing his actions and being absolutely rational, maybe, he wouldn't have allowed assasination. But humans can't be always that rational. He could've thought about something else all of a sudden or something and let the things go the way they had to go

First let me say I am female,I am 42 yrs old and my voter ID says party no declared. I vote for a president not a party.

 I have said this since 2007 and will til I die. Think about every woman boss or supervisor you have ever had. Some friendly some not regardless of personality the fact is your day was dictated by her mood. If she was in a bad mood you knew it and if she in a great mood you knew it. She would make it a hard day or a kick back day her call she's boss. Do you really want this in a president.
Get mad if you want to ladies. Facts are what they are
I don't think men and women actually differ that much. There can be sensitive men and strong women

Science is not a religion, in any way. Science is based on facts and researches and religion is based on beleiving without asking questions.
However, both science and religion based on some hypothesis that disproved with time by more strong hypothesis. By more strong hypothesis I mean the one which more strictly connected to the facts. But they both based on believing that facts they represented are the truth. By this way, religion is protoscience and science is criticism of the religion. Although both they have something common and they are not opposites, but science genetically succeeds religion as more accurate approach to reality. See "The Logic of Scientific Discovery" by Karl Popper, my friend.

People are hating on the bitcoin but keep in mind that you always will have this because on every currency there are some haters.
I also think that the bitcoin does not have a lot of haters that can be taken serious.
I agree.
If lots of people really hated Bitcoin, it wouldn't have such a high price

-23 June will be UK Independence Day-

Results: leave 17410742 vs 16141241

Quote from: David Cameron
“We should be proud that we trust our people”

“The British people have voted to leave the European Union and their will must be respected”

“There can be no doubt about the result”

“I would reassure those markets and investors that Britain’s economy is fundamentally strong”

“I’m very proud and honoured to have been Prime Minister of this great country for six years”

“I think the country requires fresh leadership”

“I will do everything I can as prime minister to steady the ship over he coming weeks and months but I do not think it would be right for me to be the captain”

““It’s in the national interest to have a period of stability”

A message from your beloved Americans: Don't worry the US army isn't leaving its unsinkable European aircraft carrier;)

A message from your beloved Chinese: a trade delegation is coming to settle some nice free trade agreement with 0 import taxes on miners;)

A message from your beloved Russians: we stay (we can't come back anyway Wink)

A message from your beloved Europeans: European slaves need your help now that you are out to reform and improve this Union.

 Grin

It's beautiful that the fear message didn't work, that like before the English men and women stand united and decided to path their own destiny free from the leach and diktats from
Continental Europe.

God save the Queen


Isn't GB now gathering singatures to make another referendum?
10046  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Not Just a Pipe Dream: Texas gets ready to leave the U.S. on: June 29, 2016, 08:24:40 AM
I hear that Texas is the only State that, right in its enabling act when it was formed, as part of the contract to be a State between itself and the United States, has the right to secede, no questions asked, any time it wants.

Since this is by contract, the U.S. has no right to even attempt to stop it.

Smiley

You heard wrong.
Let's see who's right here.
Wikipedia:
"The Republic of Texas declared independence from the Republic of Mexico on March 2, 1836. At the time the vast majority of the Texian population favored the annexation of the Republic by the United States.
Texas' current legal status is as a state of the United States of America."
There is a lot of stuff there but nothing about a right to secede, so, yes, BADecker, you heard wrong, I guess
10047  Other / Off-topic / Re: What would you do if ... on: June 29, 2016, 08:21:45 AM
What would I do if I had $1.000.000? It depends on the things which I can buy on it. I could have 1 million $ on an uninhabited island and there any money would be useless for survival. Or it could be enormous inflation, so 1 millon $ then would be equal to our 1$. However, if everything would be fine and 1 million $ would be equal to real 1 million, on which I can buy something, I think I would do some investment to keep money along with my life.

Putin has changed Russia - he's given capitalism to farmers for example.
You can't have capitalism without capital, and the west is busy transferring wealth into the hands of the bankers. They don't invest in industry any more.

Frankly inwardly I don't have much criticism to his reign... If only they could only focus on Russia and not waste resources and lives troubling the empire it would be great... Sadly they believe that supporting Assad makes Russia stronger... Completely desillusional.
I think Russia joining European world and not trying to be against it is just a matter of time. So, I guess, they'll stop supporting Assad finally
10049  Other / Politics & Society / Re: European Army a threat to Pax Americana? on: June 29, 2016, 08:09:09 AM
As for me, Europe is quite peaceful for ruining Pax Americana. Even if they have some confrontations, I don't think they are4 serious enough to be a threat for peace

10051  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why some countries are lucky and some appears to be less so on: June 28, 2016, 01:26:22 PM
I suppose it doesn't actually depend on a country and everything (in most of cases). It's just that some people are happy in the poorest conditions and some are facing depressions in best ones
10052  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you believe the news ? on: June 28, 2016, 01:12:25 PM
I almost certainly convinced that there is no independent media and truthful news. But that doesn't mean that we should stay away from the news. More likely that we should estimate every media and news on the subject of independence and truth despite the fact that complete truth and independence as well as their opposites are impossible.

10054  Other / Politics & Society / Re: What is your opinion about this life? on: June 28, 2016, 01:01:50 PM
1. My life purpose is to live my life. The purpose of life is a life itself
2. Dying as a block of life is undesirable. However, I believe that death as eternal stop of life is impossible. More likely that phenomenon we called death is just a very deep dream, after which another life will necessarily awake.
3. We're living in this world just to be alive. With our life, our existence we confirm general existence, we justify being over non-being.

The war on drugs is failing – decriminalisation is the only way forward

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/jun/23/war-on-drugs-failing-decriminalisation-prohibition

<< It is generally accepted that the international "war on drugs" has had devastating and far-reaching consequences. These include public health crises, mass incarceration, corruption, and black market–fuelled violence. Even the United Nations Office on Drug Control (UNODC), responsible for monitoring and managing the international drug control conventions, acknowledges failure resulting from the creation of "a criminal black market of staggering proportions" that is a fundamental threat to global security.

On Sunday, the UN will promote the International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, otherwise known as the International Anti-Drugs Day. Each year, the 26 June becomes an expression of global solidarity and determination to combat and eradicate drug abuse, and champion the "war on drugs". This year's theme is benignly titled Listen First, and attempts to encourage listening to children and youth in order to prevent drug use and protect their health and safety. It is a particularly apt theme, given the news this week of the three 12-year-old girls who were taken to hospital in Salford after having taken ecstasy pills marketed as "teddy" pills.

This recent incident highlights the flaws in prohibitionist drug policies, enshrined in the UN conventions. It is an example of how criminalising drug use can cause more harm than good. Drugs sold on the black market have no age restrictions, no labelling, no instructions for use, and for the most part you can't be sure what you are buying. Many of the health risks associated with drug use result from the fact that drug production and drug use is unregulated and controlled by black market forces. People take too much, don’t get help quickly enough, take adulterated substances, and are poorly educated on the substances they are taking. Additionally, new psychoactive substances ("legal highs") pose problems because health agencies have no idea what is in them, or how to deal with them when something goes wrong. >>



Decriminalisation seems the best solution to me, because I think adults shouldn't be forbidden to do something to their own health. As far as a person is not making crimes, this person can take whatever he/she wants
10056  Other / Politics & Society / Re: War against Iran is (not) necessary because... on: June 28, 2016, 12:52:49 PM
1) it will nuke isreal
2) it will nuke Saudi Arabia
3) it will nuke itself
4) it's impossible to do business with the mullahs there is no jurisdictional stability and too much corruption
5) it's fun when the goal is total destruction when taking all living things there as ennemies to be obliterate
6) good training
7) good tv shows
Cool good movies later
9) to free the women ;-)
10) it's a nice destination to visit
11) take revenge for all the fallen in Irak because the Shia are one block
12) liberate Iraq from Iranian control
13) test new weapons and tactics
14) make money rebuilding the country
15) the fun of war, advancement and other opportunity to apply the training
16) show the world who has the deadliest military force ever assembled
17) sending people to the afterlife in mass
18) getting the gas and oil for free

Your opinions? Can you add more? Or are you a supporter of the Shia?


The war is not necessary in any case, I guess, because it isn't really a solution of problems.
But considering a strong suni movements, it is nice to have a shia opposition, I suppose
10057  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Which country will be next to alight from the sinking EU ship? on: June 28, 2016, 12:48:52 PM
I voted for Belgium, because of those terrorist attacks. I guess it's enough of these problems with immigrants for them and people pretending to be immigrants and actually being terrorists.
However, if Belgium quits, is there going to be EU?
10058  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you believe in aliens? on: June 28, 2016, 11:28:23 AM
I believe in them just as much as in zombies, vampires, witches or mermaids. Don't get me wrong. It doesn't mean I don't believe in aliens. I just think they all have a hypothetical existence, a potention to really exist and be observable. But as long as there aren't certain evidence for it, they don't actually exist
10059  Other / Off-topic / Re: What Antivirus are you using? on: June 28, 2016, 11:26:25 AM
Antivirus software is needed for Windows users, where users have wide authority to open some suspicious executable files, but in any Linux OS there is division between user and super-user (root). Most of time you're user and you can not open any suspicious file, but if you want to open it, you enter super-user's password, become him and run any executable files under your responsibility. IMO, in Linux OS Antiviruses are needless since any file opens with awareness of user and nothing could be open without it. While in Windows OS Antivirus is a machine, in Linux OS it is a human. It means that the best Antivirus is human itself.
10060  Other / Off-topic / Re: How To Handle Long Distance Relationships?? on: June 28, 2016, 11:21:19 AM
I've been with this girl for about 3years now, dating her online; but recently she says shes been numb and doesn't think i'm the one for her, even after all we have been through and the promises we've made. Is there anything I can do to fix this relationship because I love her a lot.
I think you better ask what she doesn't like in you and tell her that you love her. You have to rely on your views of the situation. Try to analyze your relationship and think whether she ever loved you and whether she still loves you and there's just some other kind of problem that spoiled your relationship. If after analyzing you conclude that she loves you (or, at least, still loved you not a long time ago), then do your best to get where she lives and meet her with flowers. If you cook well then cook something for her. Make it a surprise meeting.
If it's too expensive then try to send her a very touching letter (I mean a real letter, not an e-mail) and see what happens then.
Good luck!!!
