Does Fiver actually pay out in Bitcoins?

Yeah just recently they started accepting it , specially introduced for Mark Karpeles and his services Smiley

Yeah, they accept it but do they pay people in BTC too?

Wow, laszlo is back.

I bought my first coin in March 2013 and I was extremely lucky and successful trader. Even if you could easily say that you don't have BTC anymore to keep low profile, I don't care, it would be shame that I have more BTC than you do despite you contributing much more to thing that looks like my life changer.

1 BTC sent your way you Bitcoin legend  Grin

You sure he still has access to that wallet address?

How do I take it up with him? If I ask I wont get any answers. Just silence which already speaks loud and clear. Do you not think all these answers are just excuses though? Where do all these answers come from? The bible or has god told you these personally? I'm sure you've just had these answers drilled into you by someone. I was raised a Catholic and went to all Catholic schools, but once you start to think for yourself it quickly becomes apparent that there's not a single piece of evidence for any gods whatsoever.

"Hearing God" is another entire discussion.  I admit that in my own life there have been many times when it felt like God was not there or not listening.  But I can tell you that if you sincerely keep asking He will respond.  He has made Himself know to me in many ways (reading the Bible, prayer, using others around me) but it is a spiritual journey.  I will pray that you will hear begin to hear Him more clearly though.  

Please don't waste your time on me. I never heard or felt him in the first place, I was just told he existed and I believed it because that's what naive children do. I also like the phrase one pair of hands working can do more than a thousand clasped in prayer, so go do something useful or altruistic instead.

Ah.  But James 5:16 says that the prayers of a righteous person are powerful and effective.  I guess this will be more of a test of how "righteous" I am then you are then. Wink  As for your point that you have moved beyond being a "naive" child, we have to come to faith like a "naive" child really.  The world around us thinks that they are just smarter than God.  It really is just pride and pride is considered the most dangerous sins of all, probably because with it no one will ever even come to God.  Why would they?  They think they know more than God and do not need Him.  Although we all need Him.  Some just won't realize that until it is too late.

If there was a god I wouldn't think I was smarter than him/her/it, and I don't think anyone would, but I guess by default I'm smarter than something that doesn't exist to me. I'd also say we don't need him and some wont realise that until the end.

Is there any other designs? just curious..


Edit: Just checked the other link, love the designs. Keep them coming!

By the way, you accept fiat lol.




Yes I do but through the dreaded paypal.

I wouldn't take the risk on here haha.

nice T-shirts! But anyone can do them by themselves.

I couldn't, but if you can then I guess you're free to do that.

I think they blew this out of proportion. So is this film just a edited version of the mini-series?

I guess... And them cutting Satan out of it seems like a way to stop them from being blasted for his similarities with Obama.

Either way, I won't be watching it. Bible/religion stuff doesn't usually interest me.


What about the upcoming Noah film?

If you understand evolution as you say you do then give me the one answer I have been looking for here.  Give me an example in the fossil record of how a fish became a dog or any kind changing into another kind.  I want just ONE fossil that proves this.  

Are you really requesting that we show you a fossil of a half dogfish? Can you show us one piece of evidence for god?

To look at a newborn baby and observe how beautifully he/she has been created is enough evidence for God that I will ever need, but that won't mean anything to most people here. Wink

What do you see when you look at a hideous miscarried deformed baby? What do you see when you see a child starving and dying of AIDS? Why did your loving all powerful and infinitely intelligent god create AIDS and give it to that beautiful innocent baby in the first place? Why can god not create a cell free from cancer? Why are people born blind and deaf? Look at the horrors of the world and ask yourself what sick fuck would create all that tragedy then do fuck all about it? I've got a reason, AIDS evolved just like everything else did and cancers and deformities and mutations just happen. But maybe you're right, and god did create everything, but then he's a horrible evil bastard and personally I wouldn't want anything to do with him on principle alone.

Sin entered the world when Adam and Eve disobeyed God.  Then sickness entered the world because of man's disobedience, as well as death.  We are living in fallen world with disease and sickness and pain and suffering.  Jesus came to bring life and hope.  He even healed the sick, and still does.  Most hospitals were started by Christians/Catholics to help bring healing to those that are suffering.  Most charities are religious in nature because God places it in the heart of us to reach out and love others.  

Yes, this life if filled with pain and suffering.  We will all die.  We will all be accountable for God's law, even if we don't believe in it or not.   We can choose to believe whatever we want about Him.  We can deny Him.  We can be angry with Him because things seem so "unfair."  But God out of His great love for us sent His son, Jesus, to pay the price for our sins so we can be restored to Him and have eternal life and He wills that everyone come to Him. And who should we blame for all the sin, sickness, death, pain, abuse in the world?  Satan is the deceiver.  He is the one that is behind it all.  But in rejecting God man is taking sides with the one that is behind all of these atrocities.  We have a choice.  


So god decided to create cancer and AIDS because of Adam and Eve, so he punishes everybody who has ever lived because of them two plebs? If Jesus or god can cure the blind, why not cure blindness altogether? Why not cure all diseases? Why even make them in the first place? Why must everyone suffer? How can someone be so cruel and evil? He has the power to do everything, yet he does nothing? You claim he's all knowledgeable, but didn't foresee what people would do? Can you not see that only humans could create a being so repugnant as this god character? I honestly don't know whether you're trolling or not.

I am not trolling.  I am very passionate about my faith as you can see.

But I will admit that your way of thinking is much more popular than mine.  If I was trying to win a popularity contest with my belief in creation as well as God I would be in huge trouble!  Cheesy

That said, I have contemplated how to best answer your accusations of the unfairness of God.  I would say the best thing to do is to take it up with Him.  We have all had questions as to His fairness, or lack thereof.  But for me it comes down to putting blame where blame is due and I am partially to blame in that I have made choices in my life that have gone against God's laws. Have I sinned against God?  Yes.  Do I deserve the punishment for that sin?  Yes.  Am I thankful for God's promise of forgiveness and grace and a hope of eternal life beyond this crappy world?  Definitely!  But many people in this world have no understanding of even the slightest need for God in their lives, or they just believe he does not exist at all.




How do I take it up with him? If I ask I wont get any answers. Just silence which already speaks loud and clear. Do you not think all these answers are just excuses though? Where do all these answers come from? The bible or has god told you these personally? I'm sure you've just had these answers drilled into you by someone.

Yeah i was posting here most of posts, but i was not that interested in btc so now i will start looking around this forum and participate in threads. I have good idea of making my own news thread will see how that goes.

Be careful with bumping really old threads like you did with the fulltilt poker ones as you'll likely get the posts deleted if a mod sees them.

i cant get primedice to work for me at all for some reason

Works for me.

Anybody here excited for the next Game of Thrones season ?

I've not seen a single episode of Game of Thrones but I always hear good things about it. Not in a rush to watch it though.

Yeah, I tried starting the show but the first episode bored me to tears so I didn't continue... I dunno, I guess I'm not the biggest fantasy/medieval fan.

Same here. I don't even like LOTR, now that really bored me to tears, though I'm sure GoT would be more enjoyable, but like I said, I'm in no rush to check it out.

I do think the Ponzis should have a sub-board in the gambling section. Put a warning saying "SITES MAY SCAM! BE CAUTIOUS!" on it for Newbies.

Only may be? I'd advise stating that it's more than likely a scam or that it's very probable that you'll lose money.
