There will be no black market for organs, if the government legalizes organ trade. What is wrong, if some poor guy is able to sell his kidney for $100,000 at a government run hospital? If he goes to the back market, he will get just $5,000 or $10,000, with the rest eaten up by the middlemen.

Than more civilized the country the less it children have been born. Due to the fact that cultured people take care of their children. Poor Muslims who come to Europe do not care about the children and about yourself. They want to live at the expense of children.

It depends upon the family values and religion. European countries such as France and Ireland are having pretty good birth rates (close to 2.0 children per woman). On the other hand, the East Asian countries (South Korea, Japan.etc) are having the lowest birth rates in the world, partly due to the cultural difference.
22043  Other / Politics & Society / Re: How can terrorism be stopped on: February 16, 2017, 08:33:09 AM
Rather than banned Islam I think it is not appropriate because Islam is not a terrorist so that it would curb freedom of religion.

Islam may not be equivalent to terrorism, but Islam is an ideology which encourages terrorist acts. Do you know the reason why there are no terror attacks in countries such as Moldova and Belarus? The reason is that there are very few Muslims in these nations.
It's not because there are few Muslims. This is because these countries are not included in the sphere of interests of the Islamic countries. For the fact there are so many terrorists from Russia. In Moldova's Transnistria, Belarus is only now beginning to conflict.

There were a lot of terrorists in Russia, but most of them either immigrated to Syria, or were killed by the Russian anti-terrorism squad. And I am sure that if Muslims immigrate to Belarus, that country will also witness terrorist attacks.
22044  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Impact of drinking alcohol. on: February 16, 2017, 08:30:43 AM
Any way,  When it comes to your health, is it better to drink or not to drink?

I am a bit confused. I know a lot of people, who got ruined as a result of their addiction to alcohol. A few of them died from medical reasons such as liver disease, while the others got involved in offenses such as driving under the influence. But even then, I believe that it is up to the individual to decide whether he want to intake alcohol or not.
22045  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Isn't Islam a religion of hate and violence, not peace and love? on: February 16, 2017, 03:40:34 AM
It only seems that way at first glance. Actually in Europe now a lot of supporters of extreme right-wing movements. The Europeans are beginning to resist the resettlement of migrants and very soon it will end.

The support levels usually stagnate at 10% to 15% (Germany, Netherlands.etc), or at 25% to 30% (France, Austria.etc). The far-right is unable to cross that threshold. That means that they will never come to power.
22046  Other / Politics & Society / Re: What do you think in the future on DONALD TRUMP in his term of presidency ? on: February 16, 2017, 03:37:49 AM
When Barack Obama wanted to remove the sanctions against Iran are only the news of this provoked the fall of prices on the market, besides, Iran is not going to cut oil production by OPEC's decision. Iran is not beneficial to Russia

Iran is one of the top importers of Russian defense equipment (partly because they can't get the western stuff). The bilateral trade between Russia and Iran is huge and they have shared interests in Yemen and Syria. So you can't say that Iran is not beneficial to Russia.
22047  Other / Politics & Society / Re: What is going on in Venezuela??? on: February 16, 2017, 03:35:37 AM
Venezuela was never a rich country. All the wealth of the country plundered. The Communist ideology that was embodied in life, Hugo Chavez was aimed at preserving his dictatorship.

If you look at the natural resources of Venezuela, it is mind blowing. They got huge deposits of Aluminium, gold and crude oil. And still, they are dirt poor. The only reason for that is the existence of rampant corruption among the elected officials.

why does the west hate russia/putin

they never colonized india they never colonized asia

they just do their own thing

Russia is the main rival of the NATO military alliance, and Putin is considered as the most powerful man in the world right now. China is another potential rival, but their military technology is ages behind that of Russia. So it is clear why the Western nations are targeting Russia and Putin.

22049  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Are terrorists only muslim in religion? on: February 16, 2017, 03:26:51 AM
For me all Muslims are terrorists. They live in a strange world to me. They do not value human life. I hate them. I can not understand why they are allowed into Europe. They will not bring anything good.

I don't understand the immigration policy of these Western nations. They give preference to the illiterate and the criminals, while educated and skilled immigrants are seldom allowed in. What is the logic behind this?
22050  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Dangerous country on: February 16, 2017, 03:24:20 AM
You mean dangerous for us because of the local fauna or regarding the treatment of the animals ?
I think that wild animals did not pose the same danger as a person. There are many African countries where there are constant civil war, there are Muslim countries in which implanted the Sharia law.

This does not mean that because there is a greater danger animals are all peaceful. I believe that in some countries wild animals are a real threat.
Wild animals can be dangerous only when a person invades their territory. Why is he doing it? If you're someone invade the house? But people are more dangerous because the attack in any territory.

If you are armed with a hunting rifle or a carbine, then no wild animal will be able to harm you. However, humans are far more dangerous, as they can use the fire-arms against you.
22051  Other / Politics & Society / Re: How To Help Sodomites? on: February 16, 2017, 03:15:40 AM
There is only one way to help the Sodomites. We should remove them from the general society and create special reservations for them. Homosexuals and heterosexuals should not live together, as the former is more prone to various STDs and mental illnesses such as pedophilia and beastiality. Let them live together with their own kind.
I think the reservation is too much. I'm sure that they have nothing to do in the civilized world. Let them do in their own country anything until I have consumed them by his own countrymen. Cruel,but it is a reality.

I support this idea. The homosexuals needs to have their own country. They are not very comfortable among the heterosexual majority, and we are not comfortable in their company. So..... this is a good idea.
22052  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Would you eat a human? on: February 16, 2017, 03:13:46 AM
In my opinion the only thing that matters here is consent.  If the human I'm eating told me that they would be happy for me to eat them, I would consider it. But then if they tasted bad I wouldn't continue.
I have the impression that this thread is a good perverts. How can a normal person can come up with the idea to eat a man? People are different from animals that do not eat their own kind.

Most of the people who were forced to eat human meat in extreme conditions were normal people, just like you and me. They never thought that they will do something like that. But then, the survival instincts are given priority over all these taboos.

9 years old is insane.  You cannot and should not hold 9 year olds liable,  no matter the crime. Duterte is a self confessed criminal, Who punishes him?

If a 9-year old is capable of committing violent crimes such as rape and murder, then he should be treated as an adult. The criminals should be weeded out of the society, regardless of their age.
22054  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Vladimir Putin wants an apology from Fox News on: February 16, 2017, 03:08:54 AM
he is less a murderer than a US president, at least thats my opinion, how many people die for misil launching ordered by US in middle east? is it a lie that they create ISIS? so?

The total (direct and indirect) death toll in Iraq crossed the one million many years back. And I am not even considering the hundreds of thousands of children, who died as a result of the US embargoes and sanctions while Saddam was in power.
The population of any country is responsible for the leader they elect. If the leader then threatens other countries that the embargo is the smallest action that can be applied to him. Don't like choose another.

So you are blaming the Iraqi public? They didn't had any choice. Saddam was a dictator, who enjoyed support only from the Sunni Arabs (20% to 25% of the Iraqi population). But the embargoes affected everyone.
What did the remaining 75% of the population of Iraq? They silently watched everything happening. I have no respect for refugees and I hate to see silent cowards. For me, they are accomplices in the crimes of Saddam.

The remaining 75% didn't had any power (perhaps with the exception of the Kurds, who tried to secede from Iraq). They were routinely harassed by the Sunni elite, and most of their leaders were either exterminated or incarcerated.
22055  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How would you store >100 Bitcoins? on: February 15, 2017, 10:17:10 AM
BTC100 is worth almost $100,000. So I will not mind spending $100 or $200 in its storage. First of all, I will purchase a brand new computer (one with a basic configuration). I will install the blockchain and create a Bitcoin wallet. Once I have the wallet, I will store the backup of the private key in a brand new USB drive. I will transfer BTC10 to this wallet. Once all the necessary backup is taken, I will format the computer, and reinstall the blockchain. This time, I will create a new wallet address. I will transfer another BTC10 and take the necessary backups. I will repeat this until all of my coins are safely stored.
22056  Economy / Economics / Re: Investors dumping gold-switching to bitcoin? on: February 15, 2017, 10:08:57 AM
Exactly, people who switching from gold to bitcoin is bad idea because gold is stable price always and governments are in control with gold and it is treated as commodity. But where as bitcoin is crypto currency and mostly it is digital asset and government don't have any control over it. Better don't switch completely to bitcoin because we don't know what is going to happen tomorrow.

I somewhat agree with your views, but not 100%. We don't know what is going to happen to the Bitcoin in the future. The inability of the government to assert control over Bitcoin can be a good thing. Think about it.
22057  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin or gold? on: February 15, 2017, 10:05:47 AM
Gold : conservative option

Bitcoin : risky option

If you have enough money get 50%/50% and sleep better Smiley

None of the market experts and investment specialists will favor investing 50% of your wealth in risky assets. Most of the time it will be 90-10, or at the max it may be 80-20 (20 for BTC, 80 for gold).

Actually it depends on each of us whether believe in gold or bitcoin though. But to see this price lately I think bitcoin is worth to keep though. If I have enough money I will put 30 70 on bitcoin or may 40 60. With this volatile price we might get some profit on trading too

Belief is not enough. You should carefully analyze whether you will be able to take a hit, if something bad happens with Bitcoin. You should always think about the worst-case scenario while investing. Personally, I will never advocate allocating more than 20% of the net worth to BTC.
22058  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Drug free in the Philippines on: February 15, 2017, 09:33:46 AM
I agree that there is no such 100% drug free but i can be lessened the volume of drugs in a country once government have a good technology on detecting drugs and preventing to enter to the country.

I doubt that. Some of the countries with the worst drug problem are those having the best technology. Examples are the United States, United Kingdom, and Italy. You are ignoring the fact that technology can aid the other side as well.
22059  Other / Politics & Society / Re: World War III ? on: February 15, 2017, 09:31:04 AM
I don't think it could happen because the nuclear technology will destroy the entire planet. But with everything that is happening today we are not safe that a third world war happens.

At the most, a few thousand people may be able to escape (temporarily) in space shuttles and space stations. But their long term survival is in serious doubt. There will be a scarcity of food and water. The survivors will cannibalize each other in the end.
22060  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Snowden ‘Not Afraid’ If Russia Hands Him Over To US on: February 15, 2017, 09:28:20 AM
It is possible that Trump may offer Snowden a deal, which is mutually beneficial. Trump may pardon Snowden, and in return the latter will pass harmful information on the Clinton crime family to the Republicans.
Of course Trump can pardon Snowden because they play with him in the same field. On the field Russia. They both betrayed America. Now Trump has no security clearance and after the Snowden pardon is impeachment.

There is a lot of difference between a whistle-blower and a traitor. These two words are not synonymous. Snowden did caused a lot of disrepute to the US. But then, who told the CIA to tap Angela Merkel's phone calls?
