I do believe in God. I would answer directly without hesitation if someone ask me if I do believe in God. It is a matter of having faith to God. Even if you do not see, feel, hear him atleast you know to yourself that you have faith and His presence is everything.

Before we believe in the says of other people, we should believe first in God. God is the one who created all of us in this world. God want us to live in a world that is surrounded by happiness and love to avoid any problem. God is always in our side even we are committing mistakes. We should give thanks to him always by means of praying. God is good all the time. We should always do good things to other people because that is what God want us to do.
2002  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you agree in death penalty? on: September 25, 2017, 09:18:34 AM
I am in favor of death penalty, with reservations especially here in my country (Philippines). The credibility, integrity and reliability of  justice system and the people behind it need to be established  first before implementing such, because we don't want innocent people to get sentenced to death out of poor justice system. I rest my case.💅

God is the one who gave us life and he is the one that should take it from us but I agree in death penalty .Our life is precious gift of god to us so no one except god has the right to take our life but some people nowadays deserves a death penalty. For example a men who is a suspect for raping a women and when it is proved that he is responsible for the rape then he should be given a death penalty as he don’t have any right to spoil someone's life . Another example we can take of a murderer who is responsible for  someone's death should also be given a death penalty .So  i think death penalty should be given but only when the person is proved guilty by the court .

If we can educate our kids at home why do we need to send them at school?

If socialization is a problem in homeschooling, there are many solutions to that ;-)
You got your point there but sending kids to school is the best after all because a parent does not have all the knowledge he needs, parents only discipline them and love but school showcase their talent and improve their skills more. Getting real friend will be a kid's bonus

I agree with you. Yes kids can learn different things and knowledge at home but sending them to school is the best and right thing to do. They can learn new things in school and they can improve their social activities because of their friends. There also some activities that schools can offer that they cannot do n home. Schools also mold their students to become a good role model to other people.
2004  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Negative effects of technology on: September 25, 2017, 09:16:39 AM
There are many negative effects of technology, since I'm still young before, we used to play outside of the house. But now, children nowadays used to play in their gadgets at home, without interaction of other kids and it's sad.

I agree with you. Technology is a very big help in our daily activities and works. It help us to finish our jobs faster and accurate. But technology also has a negative effect that we should avoid to happen. In my observation, many children below 7 years old are being addict in using of gadgets so their social interaction with the community are being loss. We should use technology properly so we can avoid problems.
2005  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is instant way to get rich ? on: September 24, 2017, 12:48:55 PM
I think there is a point, with a large enough outcome this is one way get rich quick, and even then if done well, if we work not good enough results will also be bad.
Maybe it was quick for you rich guys, but for those of us who has nothing, it was moderate lol (let me not say slow). I first started with faucets and you know how hard it is to earn from faucets, before I actually got into other platforms that helped me to earn more like Twitter. I discovered signature campaign after I joined bitcointalk.org

Those who can say that bitcoin is an instant way to get rich are those who have bitcoins from the start.  I just earned bitcoin through signature campaign.  I tried investing but I was scammed.  Bitcoin in due time can make us rich but not in an instant way.  We have to have patience and we should work really hard.
2006  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: September 24, 2017, 12:20:28 PM
both are important, you can't say one's better than the other. I suggest you save some then invest some, but never ever invest money you can't afford to lose.
Yeah, never invest you can't afford to lose.  You can invest some and then save half of them, with your investment probably going up and you can get additional income from saving.

As they say do not put all your eggs in one basket.  Investing is really a risk that is why it is better to invest what you can lose.  But compared to saving your money, investing surely will give you profit.  As saving our money in time loses its value due to inflation.  
2007  Economy / Economics / Re: Most people dont even know what this is yet. on: September 24, 2017, 11:48:13 AM
People are still afraid to introduce bitcoin into their lives due to the fact that its course is too unstable or even not heard of it. In order for all to switch to the digital currency, more than one generation must change.
Yes that includes our parents and our eldest member of the family who are not familiar with bitcoin.  They are always been afraid on things they are not familiar to.  Bitcoin for them is complicated and they think that they have to be knowledgeable in computers.  But teens are easier to teach because they can easily understand.
2008  Other / Politics & Society / Re: God on: September 24, 2017, 09:24:45 AM
Since most of the topics here are mostly about religion, i too would like to create a topic with regards to this.

I would like to question those who consider God as something that is purely fictional. Why did you arrive to this kind of conclusion? Do you have any proofs as to why God is not real? If so, then how could humans existed ? Do you think we came from a single tiny organism? Which through time had landed in this perfectly habitual planet and started to grew body parts?

Im just curious and wanted to hear their side on this

Do you have any proofs as to why God is not real?

God is real and you can see effect of his power ( earth , galaxy)
 

Before we believe in the says of other people, we should believe first in God. God is the one who created all of us in this world. God want us to live in a world that is surrounded by happiness and love to avoid any problem. God is always in our side even we are committing mistakes.

2009  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Negative effects of technology on: September 24, 2017, 09:22:28 AM
Technology makes up the modern world. We cannot deny the fact that behind all of its helps to mankind it also lead  to different negative effects. Let me focus on some view points, first technology isolate man from the society-physical socialization is replaced by social media. Today's time, children learn first how to used gadgets before knowing how to speak and play with other kids. Almost everyone depends on the technology itself rather than having self-confidence. Lastly, humanity learn to used technology to developed destructive weapon like nuclear bomb, atomic missile, biochemical  weapon and many more which may threatens human existence. This are only few of the negative effects of technology, always remember, "man controls technology not technology controls man". Use things around you responsibly.



I agree with you. Technology is a very big help in our daily activities and works. It help us to finish our jobs faster and accurate.

2010  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Gender equality on: September 24, 2017, 09:20:24 AM
Men and women can not be equal in the performance of some work, but to have the right, for example, to drive a car or to choose who to marry should have everyone.

One problem of gender inequality is women cannot do hard work because they are fragile and careless sometimes. Because of that, some employers are looking for male employee because they know that male is more capable to do hark work. But there are also some company who are looking for women employee because they trust give trust on women. All people should treat each other equally because we are all the same in God's eye. Yes, men and women should be treated equally.
2011  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you believe the news ? on: September 24, 2017, 09:18:03 AM
They say watching news is important so that as an individual we are aware of the happenings in local or outside the country. But sometimes medias are bias and it is boring to watch news because more of it are killings and drugs topic. What I like about news is the weather report so that im prepared whether it will rain or shine tomorrow

News report are the one that give us updates and information in what is the current happening in our country. News casters are trying their report best to give us the latest update on a certain event. But not all news are trust worthy because there are some fake news that gives bias opinion. We listeners should think wisely if they are reporting accurate and if we can trust them. Me, I personally like reading news more than watching news.
2012  Other / Off-topic / Re: Job Vs Bitcoin on: September 24, 2017, 09:15:32 AM
Hi, I was wondering if I should quit my job and focus more on bitcoins? Because I think it might get me even richer without a job?  Grin

I think you should keep the job and invest part of your income to improve your Bitcoin portfolio or earning..
I am planning to do the same.. a small beginning for me but my job helps be build on this dream atm..

I agree with you. Never think about quitting your stable job. You don't sure are you successful if you quit your job and work with Bitcoin. To me, Bitcoin should be a second income if you want to have more money. However, you won't regret to invest Bitcoin.

I have a fulltime job and I never think of quitting it.  Though income from bitcoin is most of the time larger than my salary, I am still keeping my job.  I enjoy both earning bitcoins while being in a job.  I earn two times my salary because of bitcoin.
2013  Economy / Economics / Re: If you have a lot of bitcoin, should you spend it or save it? on: September 23, 2017, 06:36:56 PM
Let's say I have 2.1 BTC And I don't spend it. Will it go up a few cents if I save it? Cause in my wallet I have up to about 50 cents worth of bitcoin. I started up with 13 cents 7 months ago. Now all of sudden I have bitcoins worth 50 cents. What do you call this? I only made that one 13 cent deposit. Nothing else!

If i have a lot of bitcoins of course i will spend part of it for me to be able to enjoy the profit i had earned and also i will save for the future because the market would still go up but atleast i still do have something that is waiting for the market to go higher.3

Yes, what is the purpose of it if we will not use it or spend it.  Besides we are earning bitcoins because we want to spend them to buy things that we need.  So if I have lots of it I will spend some of it to have a comfortable life.  And then I will keep some to have more of it.  Keeping them is like investing them.
2014  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: September 23, 2017, 06:32:36 PM
better both of them because sparing is also important and investing is also important because saving and investing is useful for the future, by saving and investing then the future will be better ...

I agree with you.  I also want to do the same but I have to atleast save some for emergency.  Then after I have my target savings I will invest my money on different things.  I would like also to have a business for me not to go to work anymore.
2015  Economy / Economics / Re: Money above all things, Yes or no ? on: September 23, 2017, 06:24:35 PM
money can make anything, for the moment I prefer finding money for everything. but when I already have a lot of money, I can think of other things without having to constantly look for money in old age.
That is life dude. What is money in your life ? That is nothing but a chance of getting everything in your youth. We all are working for money and have no preference of happiness in our lives.
This weakness will arise when we would be on death bed waiting for death. No value for money, then.

I agree with you.  I read an article wherein they interview those people who are nearing their death.  They wish they did everything the want when they are young, others wished to travel, some wants to talk with their friends.  And that putting yourself on job without social thing is not funny.  But of course, we can balance both like travelling while earning money.

Dimon Knocks Bitcoin Again: Crackdown Likely on 'Worthless' Cryptocurrency

Jamie Dimon is at it again.

Expanding on his recent criticism of bitcoin, the CEO of JPMorgan Chase bank is again out in the media warning "it will end badly" for the tech. In a fresh round of press interviews, Dimon told CNBC he is concerned about a flood of cryptocurrencies – thanks to bitcoin, ethereum and initial coin offerings (ICOs) – and believes governments will soon crackdown on the phenomenon.

Should we feel threatend or worried?  Considering the fact that whatever they say to bitcoin, bitcoin has already a foundation.  It has been trusted and proven and that there is no way that they can knock it down.  Bitcoin price goes down a little but it is still high compared to its price months ago. 
2017  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is instant way to get rich ? on: September 23, 2017, 04:34:10 PM
what do you think about this topic?


I think it depends on the people on how he will handle his life so that he'll became a rich person. BTC is nothing to do in being rich because the hardwork and ofcourse the strategy of the person is the who will make him a rich person and nothing to do with the bitcoin. Bitcoin is just a currency and it will help you in many ways.

Bitcoin is just a currency but it really help's a lot for a person who does not have that much or still just a student , It was one of a way to earn more money as a fast as possible.

Yes it is true.  Just like the story of the 12 year old kid who became a millionaire because of bitcoin.  But thatbis during his time when bitcoin price is still low.  Maybe he have many bitcoins then and now since its price goes up, its value goes up.  We can all become rich even not in bitcoin.  As long as we are eager and that we believe that it can happen.
2018  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Charlie Shrem "China has no real effect on the future of bitcoin" on: September 23, 2017, 04:26:40 PM
I agree with him.  China has nothing to do and cannot do anything on the price of bitcoin.  Simply because evwn if they banned bitcoin in their country, bitcoin price is still high compared to the price on its early years.  And maybe most of the users of bitcoin our from the USA and next is the south east asia.
2019  Economy / Economics / Re: Is NOW the best time to buy or enter in bitcoin? on: September 22, 2017, 04:31:13 PM
Bitcoin prices plunged from $4900 to $3300 withing pan of few days. Now some news-points from bitcoin world are claiming this price plunge was planned. Check following links:

https://news.bitcoin.com/after-the-boss-calls-bitcoin-a-fraud-jp-morgan-buys-the-dip/
http://btc-flow.in/2017/09/16/after-the-boss-calls-bitcoin-a-fraud-jp-morgan-buys-the-dip/
http://btc-flow.in/2017/09/16/after-the-boss-calls-bitcoin-a-fraud-jp-morgan-buys-the-dip/

Now without going into whether above claims are true or not, my concern is "Isn't this is the right time to enter the bitcoin market or purchase few more". There is definite signs of improvement in the bitcoin price market. Current price is around $3757. It is quite possible to see bitcoin back to 4k to 5k or more. Given biggest players from finance sector are eying this lucrative market.
What do you think, is this is right time to buy some more bitcoins or wait and watch?


Everytime is the right time.  It is a plus if the bitcoin price goes down because we will be able to buy bitcoin at a low price.  Considering that its price goes up everytime.  When bitcoin proce dropped I bought a bit of it because I know that in just a short period of time, its price will goes up again.
2020  Economy / Economics / Re: Is bitcoin a good way to invest your money ? on: September 22, 2017, 04:24:27 PM
I heard that bitcoin is a good investment for making a huge profit in the future , is that right ? Because i want to buy some bitcoin in these days .
If you think you trust bitcoin that much why not? If you invest your money on something else, there will always be risks. In bitcoin also there is risk but if you've known bitcoin from the beginning and how it is fying high till now, even this negative news we're hearing on the decline of bitcoin's value will not discourage you from investing in bitcoin.

Considering the fact that bitcoin already exist for almost 8 years now, it is absolutely no way that you cannot trust it.  It has been tested and proven to give you an income.  And one of that is investment.  Investing in bitcoin is a risk just like any other investment.  Looking on the performance of bitcoin, I may say that it is indeed a goodway to invest on it.
