I really don't think that Islam is real issue and problem here.
For centuries Muslim lived in the Europe, in Bosnia, Kosovo, also Germany, Austria, France, UK, together with Christian without some big conflicts or problems.
We have problem now because this new Muslim, coming now to Europe from Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, are very different from this ''old Muslim'' in Europe.
They coming from different culture, have different mentality etc, and this is real issue here, not Islam as religion.

It's crazy.
It seems this Muslim immigrants coming from completely different world, where they are not allowed to be free, have normal relationship with women, other people, children etc.
Now, they came to the West and it seems they ar5e lost and can't control their emotions, behavior etc.
It's becoming very serious problem now and don't know how to solve it.

9603  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin: Should you stay or should you go? on: February 08, 2016, 06:02:45 PM
I don't see any reason to go.
For me bitcoin is investment, way of life and revolutionary idea at the same time.
I support it 100 %.
If I will leave bitcoin I will give up from my ideal and vision first.
After that, I will also give up from financial security and financial freedom.
No way I will go now.
9604  Other / Off-topic / Re: Earning a living with bitcoin? on: February 08, 2016, 05:59:52 PM
With my Bitcoin earnings I still can't cover 100 % of my living expenses so part of my BTC funds I keep in the wallet and other part I invested in other business opportunities.
I'm doing this several years and hoping to get rid from my daily job and live only from my bitcoin funds and earnings from other investment projects on Internet.
Hope that this day will come soon Smiley
9605  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Proof that God exists on: February 07, 2016, 06:04:33 PM
Can yo prove that love exist?
Or our spirit?
Or black holes?
You can't see such things but you believe in them.
So, why is so difficult to believe in God?
Because you can't see him?
Do you really think that created being can prove existence of his Creator?
I don't think so Smiley
God created all universe, science, all natural laws and He is beyond it.

9606  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Racism is a real thing (this thread is extremely racist) on: February 07, 2016, 06:01:17 PM
Yes I agree that racism is very difficult problem today in society.
It seems it's very hard to solve it.
I think people need education.
They need to learn how to respect other people, even people with different race, nationality, religion etc.
Most religion teach people to respect and love others and this is good way how to fight with racism.


9607  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I am so glad that BTC is rallying again. on: February 07, 2016, 05:57:27 PM
It's nothing new really.
Until now, we sew so many changes with bitcoin that I can't even count it Smiley
Now, it looks that things are going again well with bitcoin but this can change again so don't jump to high, please.
I see bitcoin as long term great business opportunity and trying not to become to excited with some short term good news.
I'm trying to see long term vision here and remain patient.
9608  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Reasons why mass of shops will not go for Bitcoin next few months on: February 07, 2016, 05:52:00 PM
Just some potential show-stoppers here:


Too less known & distributed yet

Too techy

Market risks - high volatility

Operational risks - safe ?

Legal risks

Too less pressure (FIAT, Paypal,... still fine) / no business case

Setup costs

Do not know payments are not revertible / would save a lot of hunting costs

KYC...


Some other ideas  and / or contra arguments?








Well, you already gave a lot good reasons.
I can add a few more connected with my country.
We don't have much bitcoin users and merchants don't have reason to accept bi9tcoin payments for only a few potential users.
Also, just a few people here heard about bitcoin so we first have to educate people about bitcoin before asking merchants to accept bitcoin.
We also have very strict financial laws.

9609  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Donald Trump or Bernie Sanders will be next USA president? on: February 06, 2016, 12:30:13 PM
In my opinion Hilary Clinton is the most qualified person for this job.
Trump or Sanders don't have political experience, knowledge and skills needed for such a responsible duty.
Of course, voters usually vote emotionally rather than rationally, so anything is possible.
It seems that today is more important to be louder and more in the media, than show a meaningful message or program in order to achieve victory in the race for an office.
9610  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Moroccan dies in suitcase while smuggled to Spain on: February 06, 2016, 12:23:10 PM
I heard today Austria consider to send army in Serbia and Macedonia to help them to watch border and stop Greece letting them..and plan b to send army on Greek/Turkey border..will see what will happen..

This situation is becoming worse, and refugees increasingly desperate.
Sending army or police to Greek/Turkey border will not solve problem.
We have to solve problem at the origin, in Syria and Iraq.
Someone should finally take responsibility and stop civil war there.
After that, international community should help rebuild this countries and bring all refugees back.
It's only permanent solution to the problem.
9611  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Russia: Accepting Bitcoin Payments in Russia is a Crime? on: February 06, 2016, 12:16:35 PM
I don't understand a few thing here.
Why accepting of BTC payments are crime in Russia?
How Russians plan to control bitcoin payments?
I'm not sure if they really have idea what is bitcoin and that it's impossible to block Bitcoin, unless they decide to stop Internet in Russia.
They already have a lot financial difficulties so it will be better to use bitcoin as secondary currency and through this they will receive a lot benefits for their own economy.


9612  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Satoshi Airdrops 1 Million BTC to the Poor on: February 06, 2016, 12:10:27 PM
According to what one of the goals of bitcoin should be - decentralize also the wealth, do you think that's happening?

Maybe based on breaking some threashold by price, marked cap or account number ?

I'd do that :-)

Interesting idea, really Smiley
But, before you decentralize the wealth, you have to decentralize knowledge, technology, provide some normal living conditions to everybody, give education etc.
It's really huge task and I don't think that bitcoin community or even Satoshi can do this.
It's responsibility of others, offline community first.
9613  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Shocking Times: Movement for Pedophile “Rights” Marches On on: February 04, 2016, 03:51:04 PM
There is no reason for the shock and disbelief here.
First we heard that homosexuality is not a disease but a mental disorder.
Later we had to correct and say that this is normal sexual behavior.
The same is true for pedophilia.
First we heard that pedophilia is not a disease but a mental disorder.
Later we will have to correct and say that this is normal sexual behavior.
All in the name of absolute human rights.
How far will it go?
As long as your own child is raped by a pedophile?
9614  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Obama Is Pressed to Open Military Front Against ISIS in Libya on: February 04, 2016, 03:45:26 PM
Western powers have reacted too late in Iraq and Syria and allowed the strengthening of ISIS, and now is very difficult to stop them.
If we allow the strengthening of ISIS also in Libya, only a few hundred kilometers from Europe, it will become an even bigger security problem and should not be allowed.
I hope Obama will make the right decision now and protect not just Libya but all Europe. 
9615  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Bank??? on: February 04, 2016, 03:40:28 PM
I also don't understand this idea about Bitcoin bank.
All idea and vision behind bitcoin is decentralization, anonymity and get rid from banks and government regulations.
If you want to create bitcoin banks you have to follow your country laws about it, government and financial regulations etc.
Also, your clients have to prove their identity and bank is already centralized, as part of national financial system.
All this is incompatible with the basic idea of Bitcoin, in my opinion.
9616  Other / Off-topic / Re: Bank or Bitcoin Wallet? on: February 04, 2016, 03:34:55 PM
It's not simple question really.
Of course, as bitcoin user I prefer Bitcoin wallet because it's more safe, anonymous and it's way to financial freedom, in my opinion.
But, we still don't live in bitcoin world and need banks to.
Without banks you can't get loans, receive salary etc.
I have dream that once this will change and my salary will be in bitcoin but thus is distant future.
Right now I prefer bitcoin wallet but have to use both. 
9617  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Every US taxpayer is now $1 million in debt on: February 02, 2016, 06:08:38 PM
It's nothing new or shocking.
All countries, governments, banks, companies and average people live in the same way, borrowing money and in debt.
We don't want to wait but want to have everything right now, new cars, houses, money etc.
So, we are all the same and because of this nothing will change.
We will be always in debt and just print new money, when needed Smiley


9618  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Trump lost Iowa on: February 02, 2016, 06:02:21 PM
I like it Smiley
Of course, it's still to early to proclaim winner and say that Trump lost all chances to win but it's good that he lost after so much hated speeches and arrogance.
Maybe now he will become more humble.
9619  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Your first bitcoins came from.. (faucets aside) on: February 02, 2016, 05:54:45 PM
If I remember well, my first bitcoin came from signature campaign on this forum.
It was really fun to read this forum every day, learn about bitcoin, join discussions and also earn some free bitcoin on the way Smiley
9620  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Are You Ready to Biological attack? on: February 01, 2016, 07:46:39 PM
I hope such thing will never happen.
I don't think that we will be able to survive such attack.
If ISIS or similar terrorist organization create and use such weapons I don't think we can defend ourselves.
It will be the end of our civilization.
