Why do people believe in aliens anyways, actually;why do people believe that if they exist , they would choose to visit US ?

Because 1) they screwed with out genetics to make us more intelligent (missing link), and 2) they want to monitor us to see when we'll be an intergalactic civilization so they'll know when to actually try to make intelligent contact.

Yeah, I too like Stargate and Star Trek. Cheesy

Area 51 i believe, was (is) nothing more than a research operations of US military, and nothing more, but its even better for them for public to think that there were UFO's,
and not US secret research. Revealing newest military tech is not something they are willing to do imho.

cheers

A bunch of people believe alien civilizations invented space travel and visit earth to make... crop circles!

Does someone knows if a static IP address is required for participation or it will work with a dynamic IP address?
The PIX value documented in https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/nodes/leaderboard/#peer-index considers weekly latency as well. If you are behind dynamic IP, you may not stay on the same IP for a week hence limiting the PIX value that your node can reach.

My IP address changes every 6 months or so, or whenever router is off for at least 2 hours, I think I'll give this a try, I'll have to set up something to warn me if IP address change, any ideas on this?

Bitnode sends out emails when your node goes up or comes down once you register an email address.  If you get an email saying your node is down, but  you have internet connectivity, then check if your IP address has changed.

That will work, thanks!

I read somewhere it was 4 men for homosexuality.

In some very Christian African countries homosexuality also carries death penalty, thanks to US American preachers...

You don't have a national ID card or citizen card in the USA?
All states are different, every state sends a driver's license to all people that want to drive and pay for the privilege which should be a right aka no license/permit yada yada.. AFAIK, there's no national ID card that has to be carried by any citizen/resident of any state right now anywhere in the USA. Point being, according to the article there was a push from the mid 2000s to get a nat'l id trending across the country by establishment republicans but has been rebuffed in many states, including NH. NH, being the freedom vehicle that it is, has shut down this National ID stroke into the future and doesn't want anything to do with it. It takes the most advanced activists to shoot something down and in NH it comes down to the Free State Project being the vehicle that drives libertarians to come there to straighten out the state. In addition to this, they shot down the seatbelt law, via an $8 million bribe via the Feds, back in 2010. Is that realistic in you life? If not, consider https://freestateproject.org/

Was the seatbelt law a law to make seatbelt use mandatory?

What if you don't drive, how do you prove to someone you are who you say you are?
15  Economy / Securities / Re: ASICMiner - Can anyone provide a simple summary of what happened? on: March 06, 2015, 11:48:51 PM
600% in terms of bitcoin value or FIAT value, i.e. took 1 BTC in 2012 and returned 600 BTC in 2014 or took 1 USD equivalent BTC in 2012 and returned 600 USD equivalent BTC in 2014 ?

Dude, 600% is 6x, so 1 bitcoin would return 6 bitcoins...

SODOMITE SUPPRESSION ACT

Penal Code section 39

a) The abominable crime against nature known as buggery, called also sodomy, is a monstrous evil that Almighty God, giver of freedom and liberty, commands us to suppress on pain of our utter destruction even as he overthrew Sodom and Gomorrha.

b) Seeing that it is better that offenders should die rather than that all of us should be killed by God’s just wrath against us for the folly of tolerating-wickedness in our midst, the People of California wisely command, in the fear of God, that any person who willingly touches another person of the same gender for purposes of sexual gratification be put to death by bullets to the head or by any other convenient method.

c) No person shall distribute, perform, or transmit sodomistic propaganda directly or indirectly by any means to any person under the age of majority. Sodomistic propaganda is defined as anything aimed at creating an interest in or an acceptance of human sexual relations other than between a man and a woman. Every offender shall be fined $1 million per occurrence, and/or imprisoned up to 10 years, and/or expelled from the boundaries of the state of California for up to life.

d) No person shall serve in any public office, nor serve in public employment, nor enjoy any public benefit, who is a sodomite or who espouses sodomistic propaganda or who belongs to any group that does.

e) This law is effective immediately and shall not be rendered ineffective nor invalidated by any court, state or federal, until heard by a quorum of the Supreme Court of California consisting only of judges who are neither sodomites nor subject to disqualification hereunder.

f) The state has an affirmative duty to defend and enforce this law as written, and every member of the public has standing to seek its enforcement and obtain reimbursement for all costs and attorney’s fees in so doing, and further, should the state persist in inaction over 1 year after due notice, the general public is empowered and deputized to execute all the provisions hereunder extra-judicially, immune from any charge and indemnified by the state against any and all liability.

g) This law shall be known as ” The Sodomite Suppression Act” and be numbered as section 39 in Title 3 of the Penal Code, pertaining to offences against the sovereignty of the state. The text shall be prominently posted in every public school classroom. All laws in conflict with this law are to that extent invalid.

That looks something from some really bad Muslim country, or ISIS, people are seriously trying to pass this in California?

With the same logic, AIDS is good. LOL

But seriously, if appealing to religion is what it takes, go for it.

Where's the religion reference?

Everything that God made is good, even marijuana” said state Rep. Simpson. “The conservative thought is that government doesn’t need to fix something that God made good.”

You never read the Bible?

Ha, wow, can't believe I missed that! Well I guess you can use God or Mother Nature interchangeably depending on one's beliefs.

You could, but in this case it is taken straight out of Genesis.

Genesis 1:31King James Version (KJV)

31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
