I'm sure that there will be no effect on their operations and beliefs. Its only a life against many members who can continue what they believing for. It's kind of sad that I think the only way to stop them is if they are completely wipe out

And is he dead for sure though? I've read a lot of articles telling of how sneaky thjs bastard is and that he was already pressumed dead a lot of times but he's still alive. Aside from the facts you've stated about another head growing in place of the killed leader, which is common with these orgs, i think we need to make sure that this guy's noy faking hus own death to get off the radar
1142  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why are rich countries rich and poor countries poor? on: July 25, 2017, 05:24:59 AM
Lots of factors, like bad resources management, corruption, old ideas and more...

Corruption is one of the reason why poor countries are poor, Those who have the power are not doing their job properly, instead of helping others, these are the reasons why others are poor. Its sad for those people who have that kind of politics.

I think that's mainly the cause of it. Corrupt and greedy leaders who think og only themselves halt any country's progress in general in favor of a few high persons. Look at japan. The japanese value honor up until now and seldon would you find corrupt officials. Rich coubtries have leaders like these that puts the people's needs first. Sadly, a lot of third world countries have the resources to become rich, its just hat because of a few greedy mfs that they're having a hard time moving up

What is the best solution to resolve our problem in overpopulation?

When it comes to solution, there are a lot of ways to control population. There's birth control methods like contraceptives, but i think family control would be the best solution here. People should be aware about how big a family hey can actually afford. There should be seminars and efforts should be made to reach out to families on what the effects of overpopulation be for them and for the society. It's easier to control population if people are aware.
1144  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Where would society be without the internet? on: July 25, 2017, 05:15:23 AM
I think it depends,  if there is no internet to start with, or if there's sudden stop of using internet. If there is no internet the people will be more sociable, not lazy, the kids are playing outdoor games with their friends,  people spend more time with their family and have more true friends.
In sudden stop of using internet, it will be hard to adjust and boring because we got intertainment in using internet.

That also would be a bad thing if done too much. We tend to neglect talking tonthise people around us. Funny that as the ibternet makes communication easier for thise that are far from each other, it makes you neglect those in front of you. Probably without the internet people would still find time even though how hard it is to reach out. Communucating face to face would mean a lot more.
1145  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why do people pray? on: July 25, 2017, 05:12:44 AM
If you really think about it, you are being a total douche when you pray for anything

You are basically telling god... that you know what is best, more than god does

By praying, you are saying...
"Hey god, I know you don't want to give me a new car, but I want it anyway"
"Screw your perfect/divine plan god, I want a new car... me me me me me me, it's all about me"

If it is god's will... why are you trying to change god's will?

Do you really think you know better than god does?

Or, are people just selfish and don't care what god has planned?

Personally I am not telling God what to do when I pray. I am asking for his wisdom ,guidance and grace. I believe God is all powerful and he ask us to pray so why would I not do so. If he has asked for people to pray to him it only stands to reason that he listens and judges accordingly to the worthiness of your prayers.

Prayer is a very importsnt aspect in a religious person's life. As you've said, this is how you talk to god. And it also keeps people closer tobtheir beliefs. I think even atheists at times would be praying themselves if they find themselves into some situations. We can all agree whether we believe or not tbat prayer is a strong indication that a person has faith and there will be times no matter how non-believers deny it, that prayers actually work
1146  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Evolution is a hoax on: July 25, 2017, 04:42:15 AM
Evolution is a fraud, that's true, because the higher the science of human education is not the better and the other way around, with high science, human beings create things that make us kill each other, from evolution alone create many people who are only selfish.

How do you propose then how we came to be? So far, evolution, though still has a lot to prove, is the most logical among all other creation theories. A lot can be argued about this theory however if you compare it to other's it explains a lot more than just basing on faith. Sometimes it's not all about faith. For now, until a better alternative is presented, i think i'll have to believe in evolution
1147  Other / Off-topic / Re: Is Mind Reading Possible? on: July 25, 2017, 04:15:40 AM
I want to aay no, it's not possible but there are a lot of cases of mind reading everywhere so i'm not a believer but i may be possible for some people. And it's been ongoing for a long tjme. Science would probably have proof about this in he future but now it's going to be a mystery for most of us why some can actually pull off such things
1148  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Are we heading towards an Indo-China war? on: July 25, 2017, 04:13:23 AM
Hopefully it doesn't go full throttle. War is never a good thing for any country. A war with these two who have the most military manpower available would be costly and it is likely that other countries would be dragged to the conflict. China can't intimidate india and i don't think any would budge here. Let's just hope for the best
1149  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Seriously, smartphones will die within 10 years. on: July 25, 2017, 04:01:32 AM
Technology eventually always upgrade,
Next thing we know, smartphones are no longer there and we can just communicate thru telepathy

Im not sure about that. Telepathy may take centuries if we can even have the technology to tap into it. As for smartphones, in 10years ot may still be one of the top communication devices that people prefer. It may have upgrades and may be a bit different already from how it is now and would probably be a lot more advanced but the convenience of smartphone's concept would ensure its demand well into the future
1150  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Would you eat a human? on: July 25, 2017, 03:57:08 AM
No never, and I think that the person who can eat human he's an animal

Animals don't engage in cannibalism, with the rare exception of certain species such as chimpanzees. Cannibalism was more popular among humans than it was among any other species of mammals.

Animals do. Especially in very dire situations. And humans are not excempted from it as well if the situation doesn't provide many options. I undrstand how you may see it as taboo or unacceptable under any circumstance but for some people, they have to make hard decisions. I don't think anyone in their right mind would slaughter a human to eat but i don't judge who for survival, are forced to eat human corpses. I think there's a big difference between the two

1151  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Who will win WW3? on: July 25, 2017, 03:02:01 AM
I think Russia and China will win the war. They got a well trained troops and I think they have a high powered weapon that is hidden and it is a counter part, unlike USA they are always exposing their weapons.

There is no need for any secret weapon. Even the existing nuclear weapons are capable of exterminating all the life from the earth many times over. So I don't understand the need for any new weapon.

Yeah and does it really even matter whoo wins this or not? Whoever wins would probably be winning ashes with the destruction ww3 would cause. Imagine the horrors of ww1 and ww2 combined with nuclear warfare. It would dwarf the number of casualities of the fwonfirst world war combined. Only a fool would think that anyone would really be victorious if ever ww3 is to happen. Extinction would be close
1152  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you trade at multiple exchanges? on: July 24, 2017, 01:53:26 PM
I trade on only 1 exchanges. Other exchanges i use as a comparison only. Due to the length of confirmation process makes it difficult to move balance from one exchanges to another exchanges.

It doesn't really take that long and you can have a portion of your wealth on different exchanges. The most typical example and reason for this is if you want to invest in a coin that isn't on your primary exchange. That's why I use bitfinex, poloniex, bittrex, kraken and liqui all at the same time.


I guess it's a good thing to have btc balances on several exchanges and trade with it on those platforms though transferring balances from one exchange to another would be quite challenging. There are exchanges that take a long time and the fees are more expensive right now compared to last year. I trade in yobit, polo and sometimes in bittrex but i don't transfer balances anymore. They stay where they are and i just trade in their respective platforms.
1153  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Crazy crypto lol on: July 24, 2017, 01:48:19 PM
John Macafee's (creator of Macafee antivirus) bet is going viral on social medias (if btc not at 500,000 $ within 3 years = i will eat my penis on National TV) lol

https://twitter.com/officialmcafee/status/887012614131372032

Chinese exchangers are buying like crazy , may be 2,400$ to 2,500 $ soon

If the bet gets National media coverage = bitcoin to 5,000$ in few hours

Seriously? Mcafee has serious balls if he means this bet and we probably will be seeing him eating his penis in three years however he plans to do that. I'm willing to wait that long to see btc go up that high but in that amount is way beyond realistic. Well a lot of people would be rich in case that happens and mcafee seems really sure about it but i think it's really closer to fantasy than reality
1154  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Advice please on what to do with my coin on: July 24, 2017, 01:43:26 PM
Hi, new to bitcoin, I invested some money into bitcoin mid June after seeing all the hype online, since investing it's dropped like 20% really not sure what to do now if I should sell up now take a 20% loss or hang onto it and hopefully it will go up again? But after reading the news looks like it's not going to go back up?

Sorry for sounding stupid just jumped into something I didn't no anything about.

Thanks


Hopefully you didn't panic sell back then because if you did, you're probably regretting it right now have had a not so good first experience in trading. Just remember that trading is all about patience. The more you're willing to wait for the right time to either buy or sell, the more chance you have of earning good profits. Never let the movement of coins sway your decisions and make rash and panicky move
1155  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: When do YOU sell? on: July 24, 2017, 01:38:55 PM
-If the price is going up and if I made a profit I sell only for take my money+profit
-If the price is going down and if I believe this situation will continue I sell with the aim of rebuy at lower price for increasing the amount of crypto
-If it is too late to sell I try to buy more for reducing the cost.

Nice boices dude. I totally agree with you. For me it's quite simple. I don't sell unless i'm in profit. Even if it's a small percentage, i won't regret selling as long as i have profit especially if it's completely necessary like emergency situations.
1156  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do you deal with loss? on: July 24, 2017, 01:29:47 PM
So in trading how do you deal with loss? For example you've invested in an alt and now it has fallen quite hard and you're on the brink of losing all your bitcoin you invested in it.
How do you actually deal with it? Do you wait and keep on waiting in hope that it will bounce back up and return your investment or you sell and get whatever left of your investment?

I will wait for it, because I think there is a Time that it will actually increase again. Just believe, and wait and ve patient because once we trade we need to have more patience for us to earn a lot of profit.

Right. The worst thing you can do after s loss would be to get carried away with your emotions. Best way to avoid that is to just stay away from it all at first. Give yourself time to recover. Everyone experiences losing and the way we react to that would be crucial because we are making decisions for our money. We should have a clear mind so its not really wise to do trading while emotions are still high after a loss
1157  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: how to start trading with a very small amount on: July 24, 2017, 01:22:38 PM
as i am a newbie.. i know nothing about trading... what should i do to start trading and multiply my btc.. guys please help me
You should join some groups, forums, markets trollboxes to find out more about Altcoins' prices, they will tell you more about trading and you can learn from their experiences to start trading.

Don't start trading without having any knowledge about it first. You'd probably be wasting your capital and won't be getting anything if you're nit careful. I agree that you have to first make preparations and study because trading is quite a serious money matter. Then start small to give yourself room for msitakes without breaking your wallet. Experience will be your best teacher here but itnwon't hurt to lessen your losses by preparing
1158  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Where can I buy waves/satoshi? on: July 24, 2017, 01:08:58 PM
I really need it bad so where or what store do you know trades waves/satoshi. I hope you all know the answer I really need it bad and....

Thanks for future response

I've seen waves in yobit and bittrex though i think polo doesn't have it yet. I'm not sure how confident you are in dealing with yobit but bittrex is a pretty good platform with a lot of recommendations. Hopefully poloniex would offerwaves soon as i also see it as a very good investment with a good team behind it.
1159  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: My first day of trading on: July 24, 2017, 01:05:11 PM
A couple days ago I transfered enough from my bank account to buy 1 Bit coin.  While waiting for the $ to make it from the bank to the exchange I had $75.00 invested so could use it to practice with.  Keep in mind that I had no experience with bit coin trading and my past day trading did not go well.

Today I saw that SC (Siacoin) was above 10% and volume was above 10,000.  It was also very active pumping up and down.  I did four buy and sell trades, not aiming for much more than 5% profit on each one and increased my $75.00 to $91.00.  It was a great leaning experience.  Also very humbling because on the first trade I made a mistake and lucked out.

Scott

Well, it's only your chance to make profit about 20% in short time. You could have lived just opposite of this by losing 20% of your capital. Lucky you, you bought sicacoin while it's pumping hard. And note that, please use stop-loss all the time while trading coins.

Good for you dude. Sia is actually one of my.most trusted coins for trading as well along with ripple and nemcoin. Though there are times like these when those coins are more on the down side, i don't mind waiting. My first days of trading weren't as lucky as you because i lost all my capital then playing with omni and panicking.
1160  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Where to learn how to trade on: July 24, 2017, 12:49:02 PM
I learnt trade by myself and nobody helped me because it was not that popular on the internet. Now, we have youtube channels, blogs ans other stuff so you can see lots of different sources regarding to trade learnings.
If you are interested in learning to how to trade the cryptocurrency I guess this forum is one of the best places to learn to how to trade, you will find many relevant things about trading also you can get help from youtube channels and from some of the websites which have articles about the bitcoin and the alts trading. In how much time to learn depends purely on you.

Forums would be best for starters and to read about the basics but i think youtube would be the best way to learn. For a lot of people, visual learning is a loy easier to pick up so watching a video would be better tha trying to understand it by youeself when reading. But of course, if you really want to learn, you won't stay with the same medium of learning. And it's important as well to apply whatbyou've learned by trading yourself. You'll find that experience will teach you a lot more.
