Looks like we ended up on the wrong side of the chain but still have 8 peers. Do Ispace or Comkort have some peers we could use?

Whats the latest word here? Are you still out of sync?

And now the defunct, basically insolvent BTCF wants to increase block size and further squeeze out end users

If you can't see BTC becoming the exact corporate bullshit it was 'made to replace,' then you're an idiot. Deep pockets can easily manipulate greed

So what's a guy like you here for? Just trying to get a piece of the action?

R3, brother, nice to see you again.

Or is it Bryce?  Heard he bought your account.  Say it ain't so...

lol, no

Dear Muslims, get it through your polygamous skulls, Christianity does not have a pope. That is catholicms. Two radically different faiths based on the same bible.

Yes. I have yet to identify what the permission is exactly. The current solution (it's an ugly solution) is to:
1) Navigate to the parent folder of cryptoglance
2) sudo chmod -R 777 <cryptoglance_folder_name>
3) sudo chown -R www-data:www-data <cryptoglance_folder_name>

chmod -r 755 folder && chown -R www-data:www-data foler

100% it was the name...no way I would use something called buttercoin for any service. Amazing they are good enough to get over 1 mill in funding, but let a stupid name like that be used.

I always thought the same, i just didn't want to slam them unfairly. With a good name, who knows what they could have achieved.

i think you are wise enough to know who controls wikipedia Smiley

As I have already posted multiple times, Wikipedia can't be an unbiased source for articles in the following topics: Politics, Religion, History, and Crime. However, Wikipedia can be a good reference for subjects in other topics, such as Flora & Fauna, Linguistics, Sports, Science, Medicine.etc.
If you think Wikipedia is biased then have a look at this- http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Islam
Some parts of the article are hillarious.

I don't know much about various wikis hosted in wikia, so I am not going to comment on it. If you want unbiased and quality information, then you should refer the Encyclopedia Britannica or some other reputed reference material. I was an editor with Wikipedia from 2004 to 2011, and I know very well what is going on there right now.

Thanks, i'll just pass this information along to Jimmy Wales and see what he thinks about your comments

Now that's total bullshit.  If you don't even know what's a miracle and what's not, probably better to not act knowledgeable about them.  Wouldn't you agree?

Sometimes prophecies can be miracles too.

A direct personal threat. Not coming from an Atheist. Not coming from a Christian. Not coming from a Buddhist. Not coming from an Amish...

Do you think I reall meant it? BADecker was joking which was more personal and direct. It was meant ro tease and probably more. I simply made another one. Undecided

BADecker's joke didn't have a gigantic personal threat attached to it.

Smiley

Haha, thought you were posting under your sockpuppet huh bud? Either that or you reference yourself in the 3rd person. you fail either way.

The similarites of Islam and Christianity

<a taken>
b) Both believes in doing good works.
c) Both believes in praying, and repentance to sins commited
d) Both teaches to not judge others

True.

The key difference between Islam and Christianity as i see it:

a) Islam believes that Jesus was apostle of God, and not the son of God that he was made to be in the scriptures of the Bible.
b) Christianity believes that Jesus was the son of God, sent to die for our sins, so that we might be redeemed through good works and repentance of sins.

True.

could you perhaps add to these list Muhammad Zakir, about any difference i may have missed, or any errors that i made? I am really enjoying this discussion Smiley

Here are some problems:

a) Both believes there is one true God.

Only Islam believes in one true God.

Why isn't Christianity?

#1: “Jesus was the son of God” itself tells there is another God than Jesus and they believe it. If not, they can't beleive Jesus was "son of God".

#2: They take this is as evidence for Jesus as God.

“I and my Father, We are One.” (John 10:30).

In fact, it is out of context.

John 10:22 -  “But it was the Feast of Dedication in Jerusalem and it was winter.”
John 10:23 - “And Yeshua was walking in The Temple on the porch of Solomon.”
John 10:24 - “And the Judeans surrounded him and were saying, "How long will you keep our souls in suspense? If you are The Messiah, tell us plainly."”
John 10:25 - “Yeshua answered and said to them, "I have told you, and you do not believe, and the works that I do in the Name of my Father, they testify of Me."”
John 10:26 - "But you do not believe, because you are not of my sheep, just as I said to you."
John 10:27 - "My sheep hear my voice and I know them and they follow Me."
John 10:28 - "And I am giving them eternal life, and they shall never perish, and no one shall snatch them from my hand."
John 10:29 - "My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand."
John 10:30 - "I and my Father, We are One."

If you look at this, you will understand on purpose they are one but it doesn't mean they are one person. Nobody can't snatch from Jesus' hands, nobody can't snatch from God's hand and hence, they are one.

Anyway, if they are still telling "no". Then they will have to believe in 14 Gods. Jesus, God and 12 disciples. Same thing used in different lines:

Romans 12:5 - “So also, we who are many, are one body in The Messiah, and each one of us is a member of the other.”

1 Corinthians 10:17 - “Just as that is one bread, and thus we are all one body, for we all receive from that which is one bread.”

John 17:11 - “From now on, I do not dwell in the world, but these are in the world, and I am coming to join you. Holy Father, keep them in your Name- that Name which you have given me, so that they shall be one, just as we are.”

Maybe more are there but last one I post which is said by Jesus' to disciples:

John 17:20-22 -  "That the all may be made one. Like thou Father art in me, I in thee, that they may be one in us. I in them, they in me, that they may be perfect in one"

See? Same "ONE" is used here. So that means 14(+) Gods? Huh



I don't think it means that so literally. I believe there is one God, as does every Christian I know. This means that we are all one through God. we are brothers in Christ, because he has died for our sins, so that we may be redeemed.

But you know what also the Quoran said in a general matter? "And they won't accept you, Neither the Jews nor the Christians until you follow what they believe". Sadly most people are like that.

Wink

5:68 - “Say: "O People of the Book! ye have no ground to stand upon unless ye stand fast by the Law, the Gospel, and all the revelation that has come to you from your Lord." It is the revelation that cometh to thee from thy Lord, that increaseth in most of them their obstinate rebellion and blasphemy. But sorrow thou not over (these) people without Faith.”

5:69 - “Those who believe (in the Qur'an), those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Sabians and the Christians,- any who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and work righteousness,- on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.”

5:72 - “They do blaspheme who say: "(Allah) is Christ the son of Mary." But said Christ: "O Children of Israel! worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord." Whoever joins other gods with Allah,- Allah will forbid him the garden, and the Fire will be his abode. There will for the wrong-doers be no one to help.”

5:75 - “Christ the son of Mary was no more than an apostle; many were the apostles that passed away before him. His mother was a woman of truth. They had both to eat their (daily) food. See how Allah doth make His signs clear to them; yet see in what ways they are deluded away from the truth!”

5:76 - “Say: "Will ye worship, besides Allah, something which hath no power either to harm or benefit you? But Allah,- He it is that heareth and knoweth all things."”

5:77 - “Say: "O people of the Book! exceed not in your religion the bounds (of what is proper), trespassing beyond the truth, nor follow the vain desires of people who went wrong in times gone by,- who misled many, and strayed (themselves) from the even way.”

5:78 - “Curses were pronounced on those among the Children of Israel who rejected Faith, by the tongue of David and of Jesus the son of Mary: because they disobeyed and persisted in excesses.”

NB: Here children means descendants of a family or people.

5:79 - “Nor did they (usually) forbid one another the iniquities which they committed: evil indeed were the deeds which they did.”

5:82 - “Strongest among men in enmity to the believers wilt thou find the Jews and Pagans; and nearest among them in love to the believers wilt thou find those who say, "We are Christians": because amongst these are men devoted to learning and men who have renounced the world, and they are not arrogant.   ”

5:83   - “And when they listen to the revelation received by the Messenger, thou wilt see their eyes overflowing with tears, for they recognise the truth: they pray: "Our Lord! we believe; write us down among the witnesses.”

5:84 - "What cause can we have not to believe in Allah and the truth which has come to us, seeing that we long for our Lord to admit us to the company of the righteous?"   

5:85   - “And for this their prayer hath Allah rewarded them with gardens, with rivers flowing underneath,- their eternal home. Such is the recompense of those who do good.”

5:86 - “But those who reject Faith and belie our Signs,- they shall be companions of Hell-fire.”

The similarites of Islam and Christianity

a) Both believes there is one true God.
b) Both believes in doing good works.
c) Both believes in praying, and repentance to sins commited
d) Both teaches to not judge others

Thank you for answering the question. How can you prove that Islam do not teach these things? Do you have passages to quote from the Quran?

No he cannot, at least not to the liking of most people around here. Because they still think the Quoran is like the bible or other traditional books. I mean in terms of arrangement and the passages. The Quoran cannot be understood without the hadith, knowledge of the history of the verses and the context they were told upon and under. People around here will shove back any verse that talks about peace with another that say fight, fight, be strong, be strong. This is not a contradiction. The Quoran was told and delivered over YEARS. every verse or a group of verses are mostly concerning certain events as they unfolded. Islam was a revolution of the mind and the human nature amidst barbarian nomads. Of course the Quoran has plenty of talks about those wars. You can easily random a section and it wont be long until you see something that you can twist and turn and tell that it is so generally asking people to kill, kill, fight and fight some more.

You want to know how islam thinks about war? If you live in my country and build a church and preach every day in a peaceful way. GOD is asking me to protect you and rebuild any harm that might come to you and your church and I will be most awarded if I ever had to die for you, A Christian or of another belief.

But you know what also the Quoran said in a general matter? "And they won't accept you, Neither the Jew nor the Christians until you follow what they believe". Sadly most people are like that.

There is a song we sing

"He[God] told me that the world would hate me if He[God] wrote my name [in the book of life/meaning you have accept God in your life as the one true god of all creation]"

Which have no interaction with the Bitcoin protocol at all.
