Why is Christianism the only religion that everybody is against?

Asian people firmly believe in the separation between the church and the state. In Christian majority Asian nations such as South Korea and the Philippines, it is the church which dictates the government policies. The Chinese doesn't want the same to happen in their country.

Recently, a very shocking event happened as the North and South Korean leaders shake hands towards ending the 65 years of having no communication. It is good to see having peace in every nation. But as the North Korea continues to create a more innovated missile technology, we all should be threatened. Not only on those near to them but for everyone in the world. We should not let that happen. It is indeed that World eyes will be on the Korean peninsula as this event starts a threat on everyone.

I would be more worried about the United States than the DPRK. How many countries have the DPRK invaded since the end of WW2? The answer is zero. And at the same time, the Americans have invaded more than 70 different countries.

Soviet Union and United States needs to be commended.   

I would have done that, but the problem is that the Soviet Union disintegrated some 27 years ago. It now exists only in the history textbooks.

One of these days the US will cut itself off from the world and let it fall apart. It has already started

Oh.. please do that. The world will be a much more peaceful and calmer place to live, without the evil influence of the United States. The Americans have invaded countless third world nations and have sponsored thousands of terrorist organizations including the Taliban in Afghanistan, ISIS in Syria and the AUC in Colombia. Please go away and leave the world in peace.

Initially, I really agree with the payment using ETH. It is more promising in my opinion. But, does the company (ICO project) really have willing to give us the eth as the reward? They will think it twice and more times because they need to promote and spread their coin or token first to all community.

Off course they need to promote their coin/token. But at the same time, they also need to reward the bounty campaign participants, who work so hard to popularize their token. In the past, I have taken part in some bounty campaigns. I remember one campaign now... I worked so hard for 2 months, made so many tweets and retweets and in the end I got some worthless tokens which still sit in my MEW wallet. They can't be traded anywhere and I have no use with them. All my two months of effort was wasted.
14645  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bounty Campaign is so Tiring so as Merit on: May 02, 2018, 03:25:57 AM
Getting merit can be extremely difficult here in this forum. I am a legendary member here, and have more than 10,000 posts. But I have just 10 merits to my name. That is one merit point for every 1,000 posts. But the good thing is that you can participate in bounties even if your merit score is zero.

What's interesting to me is you joined this forum exactly 2 days before I did, yet when they issued merits they only gave you 10? Are you sure about that, guy? You were supposed to get 100, unless you became Legendary after the system went into effect, in which case you would only get 50, I think.

I am not talking about the "default" merit points. I have about 1,000 default merit points, which they give to all the legendary members. I am talking about the "earned" merit points. I have only 10 earned merit points, despite making so many posts here regularly.
14646  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who is selling Bitcoin? on: May 02, 2018, 03:23:11 AM
Everyone in here is desperate to convince each other the Bitcoin can only go up and therefore you have to buy and hold.

But when you buy Bitcoin, someone is selling it to you.

Why are people selling Bitcoin?

If you don't sell your coins, then how you are going to profit out of it? I am currently holding around BTC2.50 and in the past I have sold almost the same quantity of coins. I have made a decision to hold a part of my stash for the long term. The rest is marked for regular profit booking.
14647  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How far can Bitcoin go? on: May 02, 2018, 03:19:22 AM
IMO, crypto can not surpass the market capitalization of gold, which stands at $7 trillion now. And in the future the maximum figure for Bitcoin market dominance I can foresee is around 70%. This means a maximum market cap of around $5 trillion for Bitcoin and an exchange rate of around $250,000 per coin.
14648  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: IPL( Indian Premier League) Prediction Thread, 2018. on: May 02, 2018, 02:18:16 AM
Well MI is out of the tournament just like DD now(if you think DD & MI can win all 6 matches from now on, then you must be dreaming).Hardik pandya was very mature today unlike his teammates.but all in vain now.

They lost to the weakest team (RCB) in the league and they don't deserve to be in the playoffs. Best of luck for the next season though!

Mumbai needs to get some good batsmen in the top order, if they want to win matches. Rohit Sharma is unreliable as ever, and the remaining bunch is extremely inexperienced.

The ICC World Cricket League Division Four is underway and currently Denmark and Malaysia are leading with two wins out of two games. The top two teams will gain an entry to the 2018 ICC World Cricket League Division Three.
14650  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Can ethereum reach the top? on: May 02, 2018, 02:11:43 AM
ETH had a chance to overtake BTC, but that chance is gone now I guess. In mid-2017, Ethereum came so close to overtaking Bitcoin in terms of market cap. But after the BCH fork, Bitcoin surged ahead of ETH. Chances of this incident repeating is very low, I have to say.
14651  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Bounty hunters should be paid in ETH on: May 02, 2018, 02:09:55 AM
But you can make ETH by selling the token received in bounty.

The problem is that nowadays the tokens which we get are not traded in any of the exchanges and even in cases where they are traded, they are worth close to nothing. This has happened to me a few times in 2018.
14652  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is King and Ethereum is Queen , Do you agree ? on: May 02, 2018, 02:07:55 AM
It needs to be seen for how long these two coins will remain as the king and queen of the crypto. A lot of new cryptos are emerging now and many of them are technologically much more advanced than either BTC or ETH. So there is a chance that these two coins will not remain as the top cryptos in the future.
14653  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 5 promising altcoins you invested? on: May 02, 2018, 02:05:48 AM
The following are the altcoins, which I have set aside for long-term holding:

1. Ethereum
2. Bitcoin Cash
3. Deep Onion
4. Denarius
5. Bitsend
14654  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why are you selling your altcoins so soon? on: May 02, 2018, 01:48:24 AM
And of course the main reason was that last crash, everyone thought that bitcoin and cypto are dying, most of them sold their alts and bought bitcoin

In that case, the market dominance of Bitcoin should have been going up. But during the last one month, it has come down from 45% to 37%, which means that people are dumping their Bitcoins and going for altcoins.
14655  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I'm very disappointed with myself. on: May 02, 2018, 01:43:07 AM
Don't get too depressed with the results. It happens to everyone. I have been investing in crypto for the past five years and similar instances have happened with me more than a dozen times. You need to forget these incidents and move on.
14656  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Bounty hunters should be paid in ETH on: May 02, 2018, 01:15:49 AM
Well I feel this depends on individual, most bounty hunters are long term investors in most crypto projects so they would prefer to be paid in the tokens believing that soon the price value will exceed that of ether while some just need the cash for their campaign (these are the people that will prefer Eth)

Even I am a bounty hunter, and I would never prefer tokens over ETH under current circumstances. Nowadays in more than 95% of the cases, the bounty campaigns are giving out tokens which are worth nothing. All the effort put by the bounty hunters is going in waste.
14657  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Marriage vs. Divorce on: May 01, 2018, 07:20:30 AM
I believe that there is no perfect marriage, no perfect couple. which marriage has a sacred promise of both couple that for better or for worse for richer and for poorer til death they were part. both of them should adjust and accept their weaknesses. after all, before they get married, first the boy courted the girl without knowing all of that person. so if you accept all the changes of your married life, one should adjust and give their best to make that marriage life works.

Your statement doesn't make any sense. If a couple is not capable of living in peace, then they should separate. Else, it will only give rise to more and more troubles. But the most important thing to remember here is that they should think about it a hundred times before taking the decision to break-off.
14658  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Would you support an Israeli ICO? on: May 01, 2018, 07:18:16 AM
I have no problem in investing in any Israeli ICOs, as long as they are not scams. For me, profit comes before everything else. And why should I get myself involved in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? Let them fight it out among themselves and I am not interested in taking sides.
14659  Other / Politics & Society / Re: What's your opinion of gun control? on: May 01, 2018, 07:16:02 AM
My opinion on gun control rests differently with different countries. The rules and requirements of every country is different, so are the needs.

It is the basic right of an individual to be able to defend against the criminals. So I wouldn't say that the situation varies from country to country. Crime rate may be lower or higher in some regions. But that shouldn't be considered while talking about gun rights.
14660  Other / Politics & Society / Re: What do you think about Middle East? on: May 01, 2018, 05:43:43 AM
Well i also see a battered region where the people are generalized and discriminated because of their culture and religion. I see a region that needs more humanitatian support than military support. A region where women and children are dying every effin day with us not taking notice or simply choosing to ignore.

Why do they need outside humanitarian support. Some of the middle-eastern nations are among the richest in the planet. For example, Qatar is currently the richest country, in terms of per capita income. The combined GDP of Saudi Arabia and the UAE amounts for over $1 trillion. Still believe that they need outside aid?
