I think that no method will help if fate is destined to die. You just have to put up with it and not think about the war. It will calm your nerves.
I don't quite agree with you. If you pass survival courses you will have more chances to survive. In the army, always young and inexperienced fighters try to stay close to the experienced fighters. It always gives them a better chance. But fate of course was not fooled.
Do you think that by fighting on either side, you will have chances of survival? It seems to me that if the third world war begins, then it surely will not leave any chance of survival for anyone on this planet.
You are wrong my friend. Even if World War III happens, there will always be someone who would survive. There will be places on earth which could be livable, well that depends, but probably there will be. If nuclear war happen, most of Earth would be destroyed and not livable , but there isn't enough bombs to cover every part of Earth so...
1182  Other / Off-topic / Re: What do you think about immortality? on: April 04, 2017, 08:53:11 PM
A long-lived life (200-250 years) will be realized by science. But I'm not sure if we can see in our generations.
Perhaps the next generation 2 generations after us will be able to see it literally.

In fact, I want to be immortal just to see these technological and scientific developments.
I agree with you. Life will be longer in near future. Maybe we won't live to see it, but it will happen for sure. Life will get longer and longer, and at one moment it will evolve in to immortality, or it will be really long, which is good too if you ask me. But there is one problem. It would not be enough for some people, no matter how long life would be, for them it would be still short.

It seems to me that life expectancy does not increase but decreases. But I would not like to be immortal. It scares me. It's like a curse
I don't agree with you, because people had lived about up to around 60 years, after world war 2, and i don't want to go before that, life was even shorter. Now in my country i rarely hear that someone young died from a illness or some other normal death, I don't count car crashes and such human error things. Medicine has evolved so much that some diseases that was lethal before, are now curable. And it will always be like that. Human life will only go up, unless we destroy our self before that.

life is only hard when you are poor, if you are rich enough, everything is easy  Smiley

Rich is also difficult. They may be lonely, they may be gravely ill, they may be attacked by their life ...
Everyone envies the rich because their lives are much easier. They have less problems than all other people. If to speak about illnesses, the percentage of their morbidity is also smaller, because poor people get sick even because they work hard or in bad conditions. And they also have a lot of other very big problems, with which rich people leave easily enough.
Totally agree with you. As you said, most people envy rich people, because most of things can be bought for money. And not to say that we live in material world, where everything goes around money. More money means easier life, you can buy more healthier food, wear better cloth, go on more different places on the world etc. But money can'y buy everything, real happiness comes from within, and it cant be bought for money. For every person there problems are biggest problems, and that will always be.

The mankind will exterminate itself as a result of arrogance and stupidity.

+1. I wouldn't be surprised if a war starts for something very little and everyone would throw everything until nothing remains. Humans...
I partially agree with you guys, sometime people make stupid mistakes for stupid reasons. It is not impossible that real reason for world war 3 would be some stupid persons arrogance or crave for more power. The public reasons for which war would start, can easily be crafted from nothing, like it was in world war 2 with reason for which Germany attacked Poland. Power is tricky thing.
1185  Other / Off-topic / Re: Would YOU choose to live forever? on: April 04, 2017, 08:28:21 PM
I must say that it would be really interesting if people could live forever, or not die from ageing. Imagine all that time that could be spent on learning and perfecting some think that you like. To achieve near perfection in something is really impressive. What could we do if we had endless time on our side. We could conquer the universe, and do so many amazing things... if we only have time.
You talk about a good life, and if you for some reason will be the poor homeless. Imagine what is to live forever in hell? Maybe our death is a deliverance from suffering and the opportunity to live again?
I don't agree with you. I think that even if you are poor in life you can build something, if you want. People can do much, just if they put some will in to it. With determination you can make, more or less anything come true. And if you had eternity, well than you don't have anything to be afraid off, because you can make everything in time. Time is greatest problem.

I'm only here to start the conversation because I'm tired of seeing "Atheism is Poison" thread being bumped daily... can't you assholes give the anti-Atheist bigotry a break for a single fucking day?!?
Everyone have there own view of things, everyone have free will to think anything they want. Everything i saw in your post was bull.... . That images was made buy some "smart" people who understood nothing about religion, or atheists who believe that got does not exist . There are people who "think" that they understand religion, and that there way is the right and only way. That kind of people even i don't support. All people i heard of that are like that are in Catholic Church, but in Orthodox Church i don't have that problem. I have my own opinion and every religious person i speak to was kind enough that they understood that our views are similar yet different.
1187  Other / Off-topic / Re: This scientist re-wires frogs to grow extra limbs. Could it work in humans? on: April 02, 2017, 07:23:11 PM
I can not imagine that this experiment will help to grow people's feet. Assume the possibility of this action is also not possible, because the time of development of the frog's organism is much less than that of a person.
It might, think of it like experimenting on rats; they may be very different than people, but it allows scientists to begin experimentation until it is somewhat safe before they try on people (or more person like animals like monkeys or pigs).
Maybe in some far far future that could be possible. If you alter human gene and mix it with frogs or what ever animal you want, i know i would not like to be that "human" . I think that in that moment, if we take under consideration that it is possible, will would stop being humans as we know, we would evolve in totally new specie. But back to reality, its not possible, because if it was humans would evolve to that point till now.

In my country as well the signs of global warming is very evident to see, The sun is scorching hot like crazy, If one dares and walk in it for 30 minutes. Its bound to have sickness for the person. Nuclear energy and other types of energy that causes harm to the atmosphere must be stopped am sure if the governments of the world put their resources together we will have a solar cell capable of harnessing about 90% of the sun's energy.
Technology will evolve in time. Remember industrial age, well if you ask me i would not like to live in that time. All that pollution... but if that time didn't exist we would not have what we have today. I believe that in future, human kind will find out some kind of non-polluting way of producing energy, but till that day come we must endure a bit of pollution :/ . I hope that day will come soon. Cheesy

I am fearful that by the time when we dont have to endure Pollution anymore we would be already dead killed by the very pollution.
Well that is also a possibility, and maybe it will happen who knows Cheesy . But till this day human race has survived a lot of difficult situation and gone true some really polluting moments. Always adapting and learning new things, and exploring alternative possibility. I think that will happen again and again and again. Unless we destroy our self from face of earth. But that won't happen because people care for good of earth and people on it, we speaking of this means that some people think about it, and are doing something about it. Everything start with just a word Cheesy .... well not everything, but you know what i mean Cheesy .
1189  Other / Politics & Society / Re: World War III ? on: April 02, 2017, 06:49:08 PM
Cooperations between the two super powers will be good for the whole world in general, Imagine the number of conflicts that could be solved if there were on the same side. Terrorism would be a thing of the past if they work. I know of many situations where because of playing politics lots of Human lives have been lost.
I disagree with you. Russia and America have different objectives and they will not be able to cooperate with each other. Only situational. Where you have confidence that the Americans are not cooperating with ISIS in the interests of soih and Russian. It may happen that they are beneficial for everyone.

I cant really argue about the fact that the USA may be cooperating with ISIS when everything seems to suggest the contrary. America's way of playing politics with things lead to the rulership of the Taliban in Afghanistan all because they wanted to drive the Russian out and now they are doing the same with ISIS. They never seem to learn.
You see, im not person who believe in big scales conspiracy, but  there are so much that common people don't know. I mean, we know only what media or some stranger or maybe friend who experienced something tell us, nothing more. And even that we don't know for sure, because media tell us what they want us to know, or on the way they want. People know only partial or non truth, so everything could be possible. Just think about it...

Hi,

I live in Europe and i am convinced that a world war will happen within the next 30 years, probably with nuclear weapons. There will be no internet, food, electricity, water available. Banks are closed so i can't get my money. No fuel in fuelstations so i can't use my car. No meds available everything is plundered in pharmacy's. Stores and wallmarts are plundered as well so no food.

What do i need to do to survive?
Well first of all, you can live in paranoia and try to collect all kind what you think is necessary for world war. But lets be honest here, maybe only war veterans can be prepared for war, because they lived it and know what its like. For people like me, who didn't experience the war ( and hope i never will) there is no way that i can be absolutely prepared for world war. Even if you stuckpile food, water and medicine there will always be people who would kill you with out mercy. So at the end you can be dead, or live and start from scraps.
1191  Other / Politics & Society / Re: World War III ? on: April 02, 2017, 06:29:31 PM
There will be no WW3 anytime soon or at all, tho countries are pretty much at war right now but in a different way, destabilizing the economy and it's government is how you defeat the country and win the war. We're in a tech era, wars have changed now.
It doesn't matter how the war is fought, war is and always will be war. With new technology war evolves, and some countries with better tech can use it against other country. But what happens when tech and electronic way of war is not efficient? They would need to enter other countries territory, and in that moment war is what it always was... because "The war, war never change us" . Cheesy

War is war, but today's war is done with a lot less casualties (as in death casualties).

But what happens when tech and electronic way of war is not efficient?
It hardly cannot be efficient since all countries use computers now days and network to monitor everything from prices, market, economy, etc... Today only time force will/should be applied is to another force.
Well most of the time when people say War, they mean man to man war, with military power. But yes there is also economical war, and in that kind of war, country with more economical and tech power will win... probably. But what will happen when some country doesn't have advance electronics? For example, what can economical war like you said do to a country like North Korea? Cyber war is future war, but future is not yet here, not totally Cheesy .

When the countries aren't developed, just as NK, then they can respond only with force and as I said, respond with force only to another force. Tho, NK has the tech power and a team of hackers, every country does, maybe some african country doesn't. Well tcyber power isn't always necessary to bring one countries economy down, simple sanctions can do just as well.
The sanction is really a chance without bloodshed to solve the problems of the world, but unfortunately the world is full of people who make money are able to establish smuggling to bypass any sanctions. Besides, the various States could not agree among themselves. No one wants to lose money. Probably will have to lose the lives of citizens.
Yes i agree. Today everything is around money. People don't like losing money and that is truth. There will always be people like us who don't support war. But if country can't answer the same way with technical war, it will answer on way they can afford and some country have stronger military force than technical. People will fight always, one way or another, but civilian will always be side that lose the most.

1194  Other / Politics & Society / Re: RELIGION AND TRUTH on: March 30, 2017, 08:42:27 PM
Since childhood I was taught about religion, life I regularly, I think everyone should believe in religion and the appropriate running of the Scriptures the world will peace.

Every adult believes in what he wants. In general, one must believe in good and every day do something useful for others. A person can not believe in anything, but if he does good deeds and cares about others, this will be the first step towards peace.
It seems to me that religion and truth are incompatible. Why do you need religion to help other people? It must be your own beliefs. Religion has arrogated to itself the right to universal principles. What does God do? All believers are really sinners, but otherwise hide it. They are cheating themselves and their God.

If God created religion, he would create one for all - the religion of truth. And all existing religions only partially reflect the truth that the creator wanted to convey to us. All people are guilty and deceive themselves first.
Each religion claims that she is the only one is the correct one. How to understand this? All religions are lying? The heads of all the religious denominations say they communicate with God. Hence it is a lie. God can not know which of them is lying. All that is connected with religion lies.

Yes, because religions are created by people. Some pretend to be preachers of the god and ostensibly on his behalf tell people what is beneficial to them. God is one for all and he wants everyone to live in peace and not lie.
Every religion in its core is the same, they all preach to people to be good to one another and to help those who needs help. Religion on its own is not problem. Problem are the people who use other people and interpret books wrong, or on way that suits them. I think that religion is for people who cant find right way to be good person on there own. For those, there are books that can help them if they want. Every religion is about being good, nothing more. Everything else is man doing.
1195  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Talking about Atheism... on: March 30, 2017, 08:35:23 PM
This thread is quickly turning into a theological showdown. How about we start betting bits? Cheesy

You realize the OP was nothing but slander and attacks against atheists... right?

There is no "quickly turning" into a theological showdown... it began that way

You cannot start a thread by shitting on atheists and expect a pleasant conversation

Or do you not see anything combative about the OP?  Are you that blind/bigoted?

I don't blame you for standing up for your atheism religion like you do. Many religious people stand up for their religion.

The thing that is amazing is that you can think that you have enough knowledge to know that God does not exist. Either you are very blind and ignorant to think like this, or you are a liar.

Cool

Again, not playing sport is not a sport.

Yes you are right, when we talk about sport that is. But tell me this, neither religious people can prove that God exist or atheists can prove that God does not exist. So, both sides believe in what they think it is right and truth. Belief is tricky thing. But there are those who believe in something and stay quiet, but there are also those who want everyone to believe what they believe. In that moment atheism becomes religion on its own, like any other religion. Atheism religion, believing that God does not exist. Difference is that atheistic preachers don't wear black robes or what ever.
1196  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Negative effects of technology on: March 30, 2017, 08:24:50 PM
Certain number of people would do as you said. But i think that there would be also other part of people who wouldn't do as you say. Yes people need to feel useful and productive, and humans will always find a way to be just that even if most of jobs are done by new technology. Humanity will always find something new to do. As technology evolve, so do humans too.

I believe the issue there will be what people in general will fancy doing to "feel useful". And looking at the current rich kids, that doesn't sound so great.
Basically they fancy stuck their nose into everyone else's business and pretend to be doing "important things", along with the bs "social life".

I'm saying this but I work on robotics. And I feel a bit concern about my own job. When I enter a company at first the employees get happy with the fancy gizmos, but I believe when they figure those gizmos basically replaced a lot of them, throwing them to unemployment, they don't get that happy...
Yep rich kids this days are like that, but i hope they won't stay kids forever. Actually i hope that people won't let to be PIMPed by tech in the future. It is great what you are doing, and if you like your job, well than that is only what counts. Technology evolution will happen with us or without us. People will be left out of jobs, but not everything could be done by robots. People will be needed to maintain them and make new when some get broken. This is only speculation, but who knows what future brings. We can only live and see for our self. Cheesy
1197  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Renewable Energy on: March 30, 2017, 08:17:40 PM
I am advocating that every home produced a bit of energy for myself, but it is not beneficial to plant owners, and so it is slowly moving to alternative technologies.

Large-scale electricity production is always the cheaper option (if you take in to account the maintenance and labor costs). That is one of the reasons why the government is not forcing anyone to produce electricity for themselves. I don't know.... may be in the future this scenario will change.
It seems to me that the cheaper technologies for the Autonomous production of electric energy is braked due to the fact that large power producers do not want to lose their positions. The same situation is happening with electric vehicles.
Today, it is very good to build power stations for yourself and get alternative energy from the sun and wind. And sell the excess to the state but the green tariff. In my country, this practice exists. Practically money for surplus enough to pay more and gas and other things.
I agree with you, to have your own power station of some kind is best way. In my country im not sure about the law for making electrical energy or selling it to someone. But i saw some houses with solar panels and i think that is great way for one house to lower there paying for electricity. It would also be great if i could supply whole my house with alternative source of energy, and not to depend on some company.

The Border isn't really about the mexicans out, Look it here if the mexicans are able to come into the USA with such ease, It will be only a matter of time when Terrorists and Islamic radicals who wants to harm the USA turn their eyes towards that place. Its only a miracle there has not been a mass exodus from these terrorists. Its unfortunate that it will be a detriment to hardworking mexicans who want to work and make a better living for themselves.
I completely agree with you. Probably there are no more hardworking people than the Mexicans. America will lose a lot because of bans for this people. Just need to distinguish and separate the working people from criminals.
Well, I am not american and i don't live there, as a matter of fact i have nothing connecting me with America, and maybe closing border for mexican people is wrong. But if that is bad for america, and if in the future it proves that America can't go on without mexicans, new way of entry will be found. Ones country best interest doesn't necessarily means good for another.
