So, some "conspiracy nutters" made a mistake about classifying. The fact - if Sandy Hook was real - is that there were deaths, right. And everybody knows that there were deaths (except the conspiracy nutters, that is), right. So what possible reason could the FBI have for redacting the number of deaths right off their statistics page?
Who said anything about deaths? The report doesn't say deaths, it says murders. And nobody was ever charged for the murders, on account of the perpetrator having killed himself immediately after. That alone is a plausible reason why they went unreported.

Good point. Semantics. Ever heard of "legalease?" That's where the legal industry has changed the meanings of common words that we all think that we know. When you get into their courts or other jurisdictions, you might think you know what you are talking about. But you don't. Not even if you have studied their dictionaries and encyclopedias.

In this case, the behind-the-scenes point is, was SHE a hoax? If it really happened the way the official reports go, why won't government answer a whole lot of legitimate questions surrounding the incident?

Whatever the truth is, something fishy was/is going on with SHE. And the real point is to find out what it was/is.

If the answer will determine your ability to get medical help, you might be need to fill out the form. "Beggars can't be choosers." Check out local laws about the requirements to answer certain private questions on the form.

What does it matter if you own bitcoins or others?

If you don't want to appear that you own any, but you have some, get rid of them before you sign the paper.

Is this question being used to accumulate statistics? Or is it being used to determine your ability to pay? Maybe it is for insurance purposes.

These questions are rhetorical, but they should give you some ideas about what other questions you might ask.

Matthew 5:17

"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them."

The OT is not obsolete according to Jesus

No... it's just incoherent, but at least we've a chronological line.
If I tell you to turn right then tell you to turn left, you will follow the last instruction given.

Not incoherent. The O.T. focus is simply from the standpoint of a theocracy ruled by God. That theocracy dissolved when Jesus came and did His work. Why? Because now He has taken up rulership of the whole world, through His Spirit for now, and personally when He returns.

i am from Bangladesh , can u pm me more details i just withdraw btc via payza is there any problem if i use this forum & blockchain and why they says uses btc is a crime?

People of Bangladesh are lucky. The British introduced English common law while they were running Bengal (Bangladesh). English common law is a two-part kind of government.

The first part has to do with all kinds of laws that the government makes.

The second part has to do with the customs of the people. It's called Queen's Bench.

If a person can get into Queen's Bench in the courts, the laws often don't apply.

Karl Lentz is a guy who is helping people in common law countries get back into common law. He has a Talkshoe program on Saturdays at http://www.talkshoe.com/talkshoe/web/talkCast.jsp?masterId=127469&cmd=tc. One of the guys who hosts that program is a guy from India named Bali Maan (India is a common law country for the same reason Bangladesh is).

Get on Karl's Talkshoe program and talk to Bali. He might even understand your Bengal language.

Go to Youtube at http://www.youtube.com/ and search on the words "Karl Lentz Bali." You will get some interesting videos about how this works.

Dhaka: Bangladesh's central bank warned against dealing in bitcoin, saying anybody caught using the virtual currency could be jailed under the country's strict anti-money laundering laws.
The Bangladesh Bank, which regulates the impoverished country's banking industry, said it issued the order after reports in local media of Bitcoin transactions through various online exchange platforms.

You are goofy to think like this.

1. The only evil threat that Bitcoin poses at this stage of the game is, it is a threat to the banking system. It is the banking system that is doing all those things that are evil, way more than Bitcoin could ever think of dong at this stage of the game. Bitcoin is one of the few things that might be able to stop the "terr'ists wannabes" that are using fiat to do what they are doing.

2. The "terr'ists wannabes" are being used by the bankers who run the banking system to do all the terrorism that they do, or attempt to do.

3. The reason that there is freedom in the places like Canada, the USA and the United Kingdom, more than in many other places, has to do with the freedom of the people. Bitcoin is increasing the freedom of the people. If yo stop Bitcoin, you slow freedom for the people down.

Let the people become educated so that they can stand up and free themselves from every oppressive government that is trying to take away the freedom of the people!

39791  Other / Off-topic / Re: Scientific proof that God exists? on: September 26, 2014, 05:53:37 AM

So why is the "God" that you believe in the right God?  Might you understand the believers in other non-Christian have another God that they believe exists?  We have a lot of "God's" that people of this world of 7 billion people believe in.  Can't we just agree to disagree as to which "higher power" that is???  

In the end, we will all know the answer, or simply end up as worm food.

Because the evidence is way stronger. The Bible came to us through methods that were impossible to have happened. It is improbable to the point of impossibility that something like the Bible could have happened in the way it did. Yet, the Bible is here. To understand this, one needs to examine the history of how the Bible came into being. The point is, Something or Someone very powerful must have guided the Bible into existence.

The rest of the religions are too vague, or else they don't have the strength of Bible text. For example, the Quaran is extremely contradictory. It has a lot of good ideas at different points. But it doesn't match the reality of life overall, whereas the Bible does. Same said for all the various evolution theories that have come and gone over the years, so that the only thing that evolution scientists can agree on is that evolution happened. Other than that, they have nothing that cannot be attributed to multitudes of other theories right along with evolution.

If someone who has studied decides that he doesn't want to accept the Bible as truth, he doesn't have anything else. He can truthfully say, if he doesn't want to accept the Bible, that we just don't know.

The two things of interest that were noted:

a)How this separates us from animals

b)How it is evidence that there is a Creator.  (Creation is another big one).


However, our own sin (evil) can lead us to deny the above.

What separates us from animals is the holy spirit.

True. and not only a separation from animals, but even life itself. I mean, any of us that loses the Holy Spirit completely for some reason will die. The animals, since they don't have the Holy spirit, show that they can live without Him, because that is what they are doing already.

The point? Don't resist the Holy Spirit to the point that you force Him out. If you do, you will die.

2). It ACCUSES or AFFIRMS - Romans 2:15, "...for their own consciences either accuse them or tell them they are doing what is right."

Note: The conscience doesn't have a mechanism to cleanse itself. Your conscience can never remove guilt. All it can do is accuse you if you have done wrong. That's why only the blood of Jesus can cleanse us from a guilty conscience, (Hebrews 10:22).

Problem with guilt is once you've done your time you know what the fuck it's sayin, do you have the experience here to know what your saying?

Problem is that any little piece of guilt, if not washed away in the blood of Jesus, is enough to condemn the guilty person to an eternity of Hellfire.

A person is strong enough that he can talk his conscience down. He can convince himself that his conscience is a lie. As long as there is no catastrophe in his life that causes him to become weak, he can convince himself that his conscience is wrong. "There are no atheists in the foxholes."

This is part of the reason that, when a Christian and an atheist face off, the atheist usually winds up becoming angry. After all, he has to fight 3 things. He has to fight his conscience that is trying to push through all his lies. He is trying to fight the words of the Christian that are going against what he has convinced himself of. And, if the Christian uses the Bible in the debate, the Holy Spirit gets into the fray and tries to straighten the atheist out for his own good.

The atheist often loses it and becomes angry, or he becomes more or less of a blubbering idiot, something like Decky.

So, don't give up in your attempts to reach the atheist. But be gentle. After all, we are trying to save them from destruction, mostly self-destruction. And keep in mind that we are not trying to save them for ourselves. Rather, we are trying to save them for God, like ambassadors for Him. So, be gentle and patient with them.

The strongest atheist is the one that remains firm in his false beliefs in the face of the three witnesses (mentioned above) against him. Don't become irritated with him. Rather, step back and give him what he is asking for. Gently turn him over to God. If God can't persuade him, are you going to be able to?

Now this was a bit offensive dude.. u sit here preachin god thinking you can talk about me as you have in your second paragraph?

1: I am not a fuckin athiest you fuckin I-D-I-O-T. If you have read any my posts, you know I believe in a far greater thing than you and YOUR religons lies, Your a religious freak cast out from your church.. YOU and YOUR chosen book are liar's, or you would not lie to others claiming I am what you call an athiest. I have never been angry at anyone here ever, I sit at home, my kids see me typing, and never hear a thing.. so tell me, where is this anger?

Blubbering idiot? I'M TYPING YOU FUCKIN I-D-I-O-T!

Next you'll claim I'm shouting.. Nah, again, I'm typing.

See the difference between me and you is you and your book are a sham wi a fuckin red face because NO-ONE wants you!!!!

Me, I produce scientific truths. 

Like the fact I am typing here, not speaking, not shouting, not angry, and cant wait for someone to msg me your ip. Only then will you PRAY with your HEART that I m not initiated into greater mysteries than you.

BADecker: I mean you no harm. I know it's YOUR society that is more responsible for the crimes commited against humanity, than all the other smaller groups that have existed since before you knew what you think you are on about. Me, am a home guard guy now, and ken how tae kick ye intae non-existance.. you could have a dogs collar around your neck for all I care, your just someone to beware in my eyes for you preach god, but like the church, allow paedophillia just by spreading the word of that cults existance. Me, if am told to, will shoot you. I guess that's the difference between you and me again.. you can shoot me but cant, I can shoot you but cant.. see the different ends of the same scale? what does your god have over mine?

It's difficult to understand exactly what you are talking about. And, you are making it so, intentionally, because you happen to want to play a little. So, what is there really to talk about, since all you want to do is play?

There are two major groups in the camp that is called Christians. There are the people who are truly, sincerely religious, believing in God for ideals of peace and salvation. Then there are the wicked people who simply want to use the name "Christian" for evil purposes, or as a method for making money at the expense of others.

It is similar in your society, that is, in the group of people who adhere to the basic, general ideals that you adhere to. Some of the people are sincere, sincerely believing the things that they are attesting to. Then there are the crooks, people who sit in your society with the idea of making money, with the idea of harming others.

What's interesting is that often all the people in both your society and mine make mistakes. The good people make mistakes, and so do the bad people. The only reason the crooks in mine might have made more harm for people is that my society has been around a lot longer than yours.  It is only in the last 300 years, and particularly in the last 100 years, that your society has been able to overcome the natural knowledge about the existence of God in the formal, outward way that it has.

This is where my society is bringing about more benefit for at least some people than yours. My society is the one that prepares some of its people for the resurrection from the dead. Yours cannot do this. This means that if your society lasts for another 500 years, it will be sending thousands of people to Hell, whereas mine will be saving thousands... even some of the bad ones in my group.

Now, here is the most important part of this post. Your society has been around for almost as long as mine. It is only in recent years, because of entropy in the general health of the people, that people can't think as clearly as they did in the past. This has allowed for the charlatans of old age earth and evolution - your society - to pull the wool over the eyes of so many of the people in recent years, blinding them to the truth of God. Remember, way down deep you know that God exists. And - no malice intended - it will go bad for you in the resurrection if you do not change and submit to God, worse if you bring others to follow your way.

39799  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin to be pegged to gold on: September 26, 2014, 12:57:09 AM
I don't think Bitcoin and gold need to compete with one another, that for Bitcoin to rise gold has to collapse. I think both of them need to be on parity of each other, in this case Bitcoin to be on parity with gold. Bitcoin and gold share very much the same fundamentals, both are a store of value of deflationary nature against the inflationary fiat.

Actually gold really isn't worth as much as it is now but it really doesn't matter, people just want something that does not lose value to back against fiat. Bitcoin is the digital equivalent of gold. Just like how money evolve to being digital, mere numbers on a computerized banking system, gold too will be digitized. An that digitized gold is Bitcoin.

So why not peg Bitcoin to gold? Of course Bitcoin being a decentralized and a non-authoritative system no one can force Bitcoin to be pegged to anything but only the people who use bitcoins themselves. Can there be any other way that Bitcoin be priced at some specific value other than being dictated by the free market, that is the exchanges, which are prone to manipulation?

Bitcoin and gold do NOT compete with each other. Neither do silver and the commodities (corn, beef, wheat, etc.). The only thing that competes is people.

The idea of Bitcoin and gold competing has to do with people trying to reap investment benefits from the people who work without doing work themselves.

Both Bitcoin and gold, along with fiat, should be used for making trading and bartering to be easier to do. The free market should be the thing that determines value relationships - automatic pegging. If there is manipulation through pegging, all it does is to steal wealth and freedom from people who think that they have a good medium of exchange in the particular "currency" that they use.
