I am not anti abortion but I am anti un-safe sex. Abortion is still a murder.  Abortion may or may not be murder. But it is much better than having unwanted orphaned kids roaming around the streets. Why do you want to bring kids to this world, when only suffering and pain awaits them? I know what happens to kids who are abandoned by their parents and I don't want that to happen to these kids. Don't get me wrong, I am still against abortion but there is hardly any other choice. |

No one knows when the world will end and my opinion on this is that end of the world
will be due to heat inside the world. Global climate change.
The human race may get extinct due to the global climate change (unless we start colonizing the exoplanets, which are located thousands of light years away). But at least some of the animal species are going to survive. The cockroaches can even survive nuclear radiation, and I expect them to cope much better with the new climatic conditions. |

My opinion is that the Palestinians already have a nation of their own - it is called "the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan". Why should the Arabs be given the Western Bank of the Jordan river, when they are already having the eastern part? And more importantly, the eastern portion is much larger when compared to the western region.

I have seen some of my relatives suffering terribly from diseases, such as cancer and diabetes. I have felt that since there is no chance of a recovery, they should be allowed to die rather than being made to cringe from so much pain. Unfortunately, in India euthanasia is illegal. If you assist someone in performing it, then you can be jailed for the rest of your life.

i never heard any country without corruption. its hard to eliminate or erase corruption if the leader or some of government officials do it. even a leader not a corrupt. somenof his fellowmen will do that. i think this cant be eliminated.
There are a lot of countries, where corruption is unheard of. Examples are New Zealand and Iceland. Everything depends on the voters. If the voters don't want corruption, then they will never elect officials who indulge in it. But if the voters are corrupt themselves, then you can't expect much from the leaders. That is what happening in countries such as India and Pakistan. |

Philippines is a beautiful country. If the government succeeds in developing the infrastructure and tourism facilities, then it can become a major destination for international tourists, just like Malaysia and Singapore. But then, the security situation needs to improve as well. The Marawi siege and the ISIS insurgency were major blows to the local tourism industry.

the child's marriage happens usually because the economy or the parents have a lot of debt with someone can not pay their debts lend their children to be married.
It can be one of the reasons. My friend got married when she was 15 and had her first child when she was 17. She was from a broken family, in which the mother had eloped with someone else and the father was mentally unstable. People were trying to take advantage of the situation and she didn't had any choice other than to get married. |

the penalty for rape should be in the most severe law of many cases of rape of a child who should be beheaded to death with the penalty of rape of the adult woman the punishment punishable in prison is very appropriate.
Whatever the penalty be, the rapists must be removed from the society and they should be never given another chance to repeat their crimes. And obviously, child rapists must be punished more harshly than those who rape adult women. I am not sure whether they should be given the death sentence or not, but they should never be let free again. |

Drinking too much alcohol can take a serious toll on your health. Alcohol does unbelievable damage to the body, virtually every part of the body. Brain, liver, heart, lungs, etc. In fact, everyone knows that excessive drinking of alcohol overtime can cause several types of cancer. Alcohol is not friendly to the body if taken heavily. Drink in moderation or better yet, not to drink at all.
No. There is no evidence to support the argument that alcohol causes cancer. The World Health Organization (WHO) has not designated alcohol as a carcinogen, and neither has it issued any statement labeling alcohol as a potential carcinogen. Just a few unreliable researchers have claimed that consumption of alcohol causes bowel and liver cancer. |

China has been claiming a huge part of the territory of the Philippines over the South China Sea or also known as the West Philippine Sea, they are justifying their claim by saying that they have a historical right over that certain area due to the "9 dash line". However, following the UNCLOS, it is clear that the Philippines is the one that has right over that certain area. I want to know your stand and please do provide some supporting legal basis.
I think in all aspects the Philippines has really shown that it has supporting evidences which points that we have the right and the ownership for those territories. However i think that china has not heeded the call and has blatantly put up bases on it against the hague ruling. South China Sea should be shared by all the neighboring nations - Vietnam, China, Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, and Taiwan. But the problem is that they want 90% of it for themselves and will not refrain from using force to invade the islands which belong to the other nations. Countries other than China should unite to teach them a lesson. |

Now I really regret spending my Bitcoins in 2015 and 2016. I faced some cash crunch back then, and I had converted almost 80% of my coins to fiat cash. And the worst part was that the prices were really at rock bottom back then. Theoretically, I am supposed to be happy because I still have around BTC2.50 in my wallet. But I am still thinking about those trades in 2015/16.

"Real" money? What do you mean by that? I would say that Bitcoin is the real money and fiat cash is the fake money. Central banks around the world are printing out banknotes without any control. Why should we give any value to such currency? IMO, real money is Bitcoin and bullion metals such as gold.

This is the first wave of the masses guys. It's pulling people out of the woodwork for sure. 2018 might easily see 40-50k/BTC. I have a hard time even saying that b/c it seems nuts to me, having been in this so long, but it's really looking like it's going to be the case and it's really not showing any chance of slowing down. At this point, you're not going to be able to short this, there is way more fiat than there is crypto right now, and you'll be margin called so fast. It'd be a horrible idea.
As it huge pump now what's do you think in 2018?
I think we can see BTC price up to 30k $ the next year. Yeah, BTC supply is limited but it could be strong trend to alts the next year There are 14 days left in December. 30k is not impossible THIS YEAR, given the recent display of market eagerness for bitcoin. It is just what I wanted to post. 30K to 40K may be achieved this month itself, provided the futures listing in CBOE / CME goes as per the plan. Th exchange rates can rise to stratosphere, and then to exosphere once NASDAQ starts Bitcoin futures trading in Q2 2018. |

As of today the current price of bitcoin is $17200.01 US Dollar. It can surpass $20,000 before the year end.
Yesterday in Coinbase, it attained a peak price of $19,340 per coin, before falling back to 16K. The prices in the Korean markets were constantly above 20K for a long time yesterday, but eventually fell to around $18,500 per coin. The next rally will be on 10th, when the CBOE futures listing will occur. |

i've never been there but can't even imagine wanting to - i've heard that it's quite a filthy place... my classmate was there for her vacation and it was terrible
Lol.... most of the third world nations are filthy. I am currently residing in India and it is horrible here. You can't walk using the street because dog/human/cow feces is everywhere. Even if you can avoid stepping on the feces, the stench that comes out of it is so overpowering. |

Savannas are good for agriculture. But there is a major obstacle in starting large-scale agricultural projects. First of all the rainfall is not high enough to allow intensive agricultural activity. Irrigation projects can be undertaken, but river Nile is already over-utilized. And the other rivers such as Congo and Niger are too far away that no viable irrigation project can be designed.

Not all countries are corrupt, I think some small countries the government has stricly regulation about corruption and punishment was very strong. Some least countries corrupt was:
1. Denmark, CPI : 92, Denmark is the least corrupt country in the world with a CPI score of 92. The administrative corruption, business corruption and other form of corruption are very rare in Denmark. The country has a unitary parliamentary system with constitutional monarchy.

Queen Elizabeth II is the head of state of New Zealand. The New Zealand government follows the Westminster model. The judiciary of New Zealand is completely independent from the executive branch and the legislature. In that way the judiciary of New Zealand maintains the accountability and impartiality.
3. Finland, CPI : 89, Finland is a parliamentary republic and the Prime Minister is the head of the government. The political leaders in Finland have a strong commitment against corruption. Finland government also maintains a much transparent mechanism and efficient integrity systems. The independent judiciary and strong legal framework also lower the chances of different forms of corruption in the country.
4. Sweden, CPI : 87, Sweden is a parliamentary democratic with a constitutional monarchy. This country globally known for its high quality life, equality, human development, education and health. The government system of Sweden is also transparent and stable. The government agencies of Sweden considered the corruption as ‘abuse of power’. There is also a efficient anti-corruption unit in Sweden to investigate and prosecute corruption.

There is special agency called CPIB ( Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau ) in Singapore to investigate and to take legal actions against corruption. The powerful judicial system in Singapore is globally known for its legitimacy and impartiality in law.
8. Netherlands, CPI : 83, Netherlands is a constitutional monarchy with a unitary parliamentary system. The current head of the state is King Willem Alexander. The King is in charge of appointing the Mayors and Politicians to the government. The prime minister is the head of the Dutch government. To keep the corruption level as low as possible, the Dutch government follows a transparent judiciary and effective anti-corruption programs.
9. Luxembourg, CPI : 82, Luxembourg is the richest and one of the smallest countries in European Union. It is the only remaining sovereign Duchy in the world. The low corruption rate is the another great thing about Luxembourg. This country has a unitary parliamentary system with a constitutional monarchy. Luxembourg government is highly concern about the implementation of anti-corruption laws. The administration within judiciary is also very transparent in this country.
10. Canada, CPI : 81, Canadian parliamentary system has three main branches, Monarch, Senate and house of commons. Queen Elizabeth II is the current Canadian monarchy. What makes Canada a least corrupt country is its open and democratic parliamentary system. Apart from that, Canada is also known for high quality life, educational system and government transparency. 7 out of the 10 countries from Europe and one each from Asia, Oceania and North America. Not a single nation from the Middle East, former USSR, Africa or Latin America. All of them except Singapore are having a rock solid white majority. That tells a lot about the population groups which are more susceptible to corruption and those which are not. |

For nearly 30 years, through the five presidential years, the United States has not stopped the Korean weapons program.
Obviously because China has been supporting NK. But that is changing. The only reason why China has been supporting the DPRK is because they don't want any American military bases right there on the border (like they have in South Korea and Japan). But now, they have reduced a lot of support services which they used to provide to the DPRK. It seems that Russia has replaced China as DPRK's main supporter. |

I support the will and desires of pduterte to beat and destroy the epidemics of drugs here in this country but there just a lot of anti and crazy people there want the power and making a steps to bring down the adminstration just because of there own agenda I agree with you. I have noticed two groups of people who are opposing this campaign against the drugs. The first group is consisted of opposition politicians, who want to capture power using any means possible. These people are willing to worsen the law and order situation, just to get Duterte ousted. And the second group is consisted of people who are accused of supporting drug lords. |

powerful now is VLADIMIR PUTIN but good reputation right now is Rodrigo Duterte of the Philippines
I agree with you. However, I would say that Vladimir Putin is well known and respected all over the world, but Duterte's sphere of influence is mostly limited to the Philippines and the other countries in the South-east Asian region. Putin is a major world leader and perhaps he is strongest and most influential leader right now. |
