9501  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you see marriage as a business transaction? (Be honest). on: March 17, 2016, 06:46:06 PM
Topic: Do you believe a majority of society sees marriage as more of a business deal, and not really a document proving love?



Question: Why would you get married? Do you think you need a piece of paper proving your love for someone? Do you want equitable distribution of the assets if you ever choose to separate? Are you looking for more cash benefits? Opportunities from the other person? Interested in free food? Perhaps massages? Etc? If you marry someone for nothing but "love", you might be marrying for the correct reasons but if you're marrying for the entitlement and services that come with it, do you think it's justified?

I think that still most people marry because of love, not money.
Be realistic, most people are not reach and can't give any money or wealth to his/her partner, only love and care.
Maybe you watch to much American TV? Smiley
Believe me, this is not reality in most cases today, anywhere in the world.
Why to marry?
It's spiritual commitment for believers and also you show how serious you are about this love and your partner.
Words are empty without concrete action to prove it.

Very interesting project.
I read everything on your site and generally can agree with most things but not with this:
Of course, such power requires strong leadership skills and proven industry force. United Bitcoin knows the only nation and leader deserving such honour:
Vladimir Putin
 
I don't think you need Putin or power of state in this story.
Bitcoin should remain free from any politic influence and we don't need any leader here, just community.
It's my honest opinion.

This is so painful on every women's side. What kind of a people would believe that this is a part of their traditional doings and should be pass on. This really hurt my feelings, Isis is not just doing it they should stop for abusing women they are not pigs.. I hate people thinking that women are just slave not just for sex but for everything. Fear will come to all women, this is not who we are..

I agree with you.
ISIS is not only classic terrorist organization but something much worse.
They want to start barbaric and cruel society based on their very strict understanding of religion and destroy all others, who are enemies in their eyes.
With their barbaric methods they want to scare everyone and show how strong and brutal they are, in order to scare and weaken their enemies.
They are more animals than humans (based on their acts) and only way to stop them is military action, not peace agreement or talks.
They understand only force.

9504  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Is there a "West"? Is the "West" responsible for all the troubles of the world? on: March 15, 2016, 05:25:17 PM
If the West was responsible for all the troubles, where have all the troubles gone to in Japan?  China?  Russia?  Chile?  Germany?   Alaska?   

If there is a "West" that is the great evil, where is it and who is it?

If "the West" is responsible for all the trouble in Iraq, why is there no trouble in Japan or Germany?

Does "the West" include Israel? 

West is very general term.
Western Europe?
USA?
Canada?
Australia?
West in political or geographical meaning?
Can you explain why West is responsible for all the troubles? Which troubles? Where?
do you think only about politic leaders or also banks, financial institutions, average people etc.?
without concrete facts and arguments it's very difficult to discuss.


9505  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bank experience makes me love Bitcoin more on: March 15, 2016, 05:05:20 PM
My brother bought a second hand car a week ago, and he went into the bank to transfer the money for the car to the dealers account at another bank. The dealer already finished all paper work and

transfer of ownership and also road worthy testing and insurance etc, but cannot deliver the car to him, because the money has not been successfully transferred by the bank. They have a 48 hour

transfer period between different banks. In this day and age, we still have to wait for a minimum of 48 hours to successfully transfer money between banks.  Huh Huh Huh


Everyone should stop complaining about Bitcoin transaction confirmation times, because with the correct fees, you will rarely see anything like this happen under normal {non-stress test} conditions.

You just have to love Bitcoin.  Grin

I agree with you.
Bitcoin is future, banks are old history, dinosaurs Smiley
We still have a long way to pass, and also we have to overcome oppositions from financial institutions and people which don't understand BTC but as more and more people become Bitcoin users, it will be more difficult to stop us until we become mainstream and official currency for payments.
It was the same with Internet.
In the beginning nobody trusted it and only a few people in universities used it.
In the beginning mostly students used internet for communication and games but now all banks using internet for money transfers and bank accounts.
It will be the same for bitcoin.

9506  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Doubling Bitcoin? on: March 15, 2016, 04:58:51 PM
You can double your bitcoin only in very risk investment programs online but please don't try it.
Most people loose huge money there.
Please be patient, collect your BTC slowly over time and when Bitcoin becomes mainstream and its value icrease a lot, you will surely become reach Smiley
9507  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Europe, you reap what you sow... on: March 13, 2016, 02:20:40 PM
USA and CIA is responsible for this. If i ll see, again, a CIA agent i ll kick his ass.

It seems USA and CIA are responsible for everything bad in this world Smiley
Seriously, this issue is much more complex and we can't blame only one side.
We can't neglect some facts like brutal dictatorships and war in Syria, unstable politic situation in Iraq and Afghanistan etc.
It's true that USA made some mistakes in this countries but all this countries had real chance to recover and achieve true democracy and peace.
Because of disunity among their tribes and politicians they couldn't achieve stability and prosperity for their own people.
Verbal conflicts eventually lead to real conflicts and war.
All this countries and their political leaders had real chance for new, clean start but spoiled this chance because of their intolerance and luck of political maturity and wisdom.
Now, we have civil wars in this countries and a lot refugees in Europe.
Yes, I agree, USA is guilty for this situation, but not only America.
Their own political representatives are equally guilty and responsible.
Now, situation in this region really became to complicate to solve.



9508  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Atheism is Poison on: March 13, 2016, 02:10:57 PM
Atheism is the fastest growing belief, or non-belief, in the world. While America is one of the last places in the change every other 1st world country has reached a point with over 30% and an equal number of agnostics.
The dominance of religion is falling world wide.

In more strict sense, belief is connected with God or something absolute, almighty.
In today's world people believe also in money, nature, mediation... so many things.
Real question is why people need to believe in something?
Because we feel insecure and scared in this challenging world?
All people ultimately seek to find happiness and joy in their lives.
Some find it in the religion or faith, others in money, nature etc.
In my opinion, solution for today's problems in society we can't find in human's temporary values (which changes all the time) but in eternal and absolute values we find in religion.
Everything what never change (like Gold or diamond) is more valuable than things which changes all the time.
Atheism is not the best solution for today's world.

there are few cafes shops in the uk thats accepts coin and i somehow spend some  have you your experience ? and how did you feel? when i was  sending coin  peoplein the cafe was looking at me and asked me about it truly i feelt like im .... hurraaaaaaaa

It was great experience, I'm sure Smiley
Unfortunately, in my country we have very small number of bitcoi9n users and just a few merchants which accept bitcoin (online staff only).
We just recently got first Bitcoin ATM in our country.
I really hope that soon I will have the same experience in my country, to pay for cafe or maybe pizza with bitcoin but I'm not to optimistic it will happen soon.
9510  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: People mocking of me for using Bitcoin on: March 13, 2016, 01:54:46 PM
Anyone of you had this kind of situation ? personally,whenever I start speaking about Bitcoin and how it will go to the moon and that kind of stuff , some of people start mocking (Friends  , Family etc ..) .
I personally don't know how to respond in most cases honestly , I just believe bitcoin will become successful .

I think you made common mistake we all do sometimes.
We are sometimes to inspired with something and want to share ''great news'' with everyone.
Unfortunately, others don't have our experience or knowledge and can't understand what we are talking about.
If we push them to much they can even become negative and attack us.
it's important to be wise in such situation, don't talk to much and wait for concrete results, before we start to talk.
It's the best approach in my opinion.

9511  Other / Politics & Society / Re: On the meaning of life and the long-term merits of technologic improvement on: March 12, 2016, 04:54:41 PM
Very interesting topic.
In my opinion, in seeking the meaning of life we should not rely on changeable human values but we should rely on God's absolute and unchanging values.
Human thinking is constantly changing, during day, month, year, life, 100 years, 1000 years etc.
Can we create stable and happy society if our values are not stable and we are in conflicts all the time?
Meaning of life we can find only in God, our Creator.
Technology should serve and help man, their creator.
9512  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Who will be the next president ? Poll on: March 12, 2016, 04:46:38 PM
I am not from the states but can anyone explain me why barack obama have to stop to be president?

He can be elected only 2 times, according to the law.
I feel like you, when I see all this weak and funny candidates, from both parties this year.  I think Obama is much better and qualified candidate.
Unfortunately, his presidency will be over next year.
 
 
9513  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Donald Trump & Bitcoin on: March 12, 2016, 04:40:43 PM
Rumors have it that Donald Trump is supportive of Bitcoin, however I'm having trouble finding solid evidence of this. Does anyone have articles or videos from creditable sources?

Would it make any difference if Mr. Trump supports it or not?

In my opinion, Trump will do anything and support everything what can help him to become US President.
I don't think that bitcoin is important issue for him now because he can't get much popularity or votes on this topic.
If he realize that bitcoin is popular among young voters in USA, he may decide to give public support for BTC Smiley
It's easy to give support for anything during politic campaign but completely different story to do something concrete about it later.

9514  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin being used for illegal activities on: March 12, 2016, 04:33:14 PM
Anything can be use for illegal activities, not just Bitcoin but also official, hard currencies, banks, financial institutions etc.
Real question is how many such illegal activities we have in Bitcoin?
It's impossible to give any concrete answer, of course, but I guess that bitcoin is more practical for illegal activities because of annonimity and luck of control. 
9515  Other / Off-topic / Re: Poll: Which religion is the best religion? on: March 11, 2016, 03:52:47 PM
Do you really think we, people, should or can decide about it?
By voting?
Best religion for us or for God? By which criteria?
If we can't create or decide about God, do you honestly think we know God's plans and Will for us?
How you can be sure that any of this religion, you suggested, really understand God's Will and Providence?
Maybe there is no such religion or faith on the earth and our only hope to reach God (and receive salvation) is through direct communication and relationship with God?
I often think that people are very arrogant and think they know everything.
If so, maybe we don't need God at all.
But than, when you see reality of this world, you have to confess that if God don't exist, we should create him Smiley

9516  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why voting for the liar? on: March 11, 2016, 03:45:27 PM
In my opinion all politicians are liars.
It's true in every country in the world.
It's their job to lie to the people and give them false hopes and promises when reality is different.
If someone will try to be honest and say truth, nobody will believe him and he will loose elections.
Nobody wants to hear bad news,it's human nature.
Even in difficult circumstances people search for false hopes and promises.
Trump is not better or worst from other politicians.
He just talk to much and accuse everybody and it seems people like this style Smiley

 
9517  Other / Off-topic / Re: Earning a living with bitcoin? on: March 11, 2016, 03:41:09 PM
You will need a lot of Bitcoin. Because you will never know what can happen in the future. The value is impossible to predict and that is the problem.
You will never know what the price will be, so sometimes you are rich and sometimes you have no money and that is not good.

I think the Bitcoin's price will rise sooner or later for sure. So holdinf bitcoins couldn't be but a profitable idea in my opinion.

You mean to say that holding for long will not be profitable or holding at a moment will not be profitable? If you are talking about long term then I think yes holding too long cannot be profitable as you never know what would be the value in future.

Yes i mean holding bitcoins for the long term run couldn't for sure be profitable, but holding nowadays is already profitable way, because we expect that the price will increase soon.
You will need some a lot of coins I think. That is the best option. Because you will never know what the value will be.
And that is the problem and also very risky and that is not good. It is better to see Bitcoin as a small earning.

You are right.
Right now we can't earn some big profit from bitcoin unless we have a lot BTC funds in the wallet Smiley
Things will change when bitcoin become mainstream and its value increase a lot.
I'm sure that wise and patient bitcoin users, who collect BTC funds now and hold them in the wallet, don't sell, will be rewarded with big profits later!
I will wait and continue to collect my BTC funds.
9518  Other / Off-topic / Re: 2016, The Year of Bitcoin? on: March 11, 2016, 03:34:14 PM
It sure will be a good year for bitcoin. The price is back up finally so now it's time for some new technologies integrated in bitcoin
do you think bitcoin prices will rise up to ? many people who say that. This year was a wonderful year for bitcoin, if the price does not exceed $ 500 I would not say that this is the year of bitcoin
well if the price does not rise it does not mean that it was a bad year for bitcoin, as companies might still adopt them

though i hope that this year will be wonderful because after halving the price will be pumped up and people will get interested into bitcoins

That's it. Too many people are only focused on the price lately.
Instead they should look how the infrastructure, implementations etc. are evolving, progressing and growing.
This will help to increase Bitcoin's value in the long run what is much more important than just making a quick.

I agree with you.
We shouldn't look in bitcoin only as short term investment.
Day by day we are coming closer to our ultimate goal: ''to become mainstream'' in online payments industry.
When this happens, bitcoin price will jump to the sky Smiley
Many people who are collecting bitcoin now and selling in panic when price fail little bit, will be sorry later.
Patience is virtue here.

Realno gledano, što se tiće večine članova daleko bi bolje prošli kad bi sate provedene na forumu proveli radeći za neku satnicu i time kupujuči Bitcoin. Fauceti su gubitak vremena. Jedino pomoću čega možeš doći do nekih para (ako nemaš nekih posebnih vještina) su signature kampanje (i to tek kad budes legendary and above).

Uglavnom se slažem s rečenim uz jednu ispravku.
Mislim da ne treba imati legendary rank na forumu za dobru zaradu u signature kampanjama.
Može se dobro zaraditi i s manjim forum rankovima kao što su hero ili senior.
Jasno, svatko od nas ima ''različitu'' definiciju dobre zarade.

Why such bad incidents taking place for the people. They have not anything bad, they're just supporting people in their bad situation, even when no countries came forward to give support.

You reap what you sow...

We shouldn't have colonized the world, we shouldn't have used and destroyed them, we shouldn't have burnt to the ground their cultures and civilization...

Now it's too late. No peace is possible. We can either finish them or drawn.

Answer is not so simple.
We have to understand that Arabs countries was under dictatorship regimes for a very long time (Syria, Egypt, Iraq, Libya) etc.
When Arabs spring arrived, in most countries happened big politic change and democracy but people wasn't prepared for it.
Political instability created chaos and new conflicts.
You can't blame Western countries for it.
They didn't initiate this political and democratic movements but reacted in some countries, like Libya, in order to protect innocent people from brutal dictator.
Unfortunately, their actions created even more chaos and conflicts.
In my opinion, both sides are guilty, local politicians and Western governments.
