You might think millions of people and trillions of other sentient beings getting killed because your un-elected lunatic mate thinks its a good idea to start a war against Russia and China to boaster the US economy, please let me remind you that the Chinese constitution demands the People's Liberation Army (PLA) protect Chinese citizens private as well as commercial and also the states interests anywhere on the planet.

To laugh about Australia potentially being attacked by China clearly displays your perpetually drunk or on drugs or something raphael I suggest you should stick to the OP topic Virtual Coins

RE: Virtual Coins?

china holds leases over most Australian ports as well as China now owns key ports, mines, agricultural land, dairy processors, valuable real estate, state-sponsored schools, plus water and energy companies.
China did make loans to quite a few African countries that couldn't repay. But that's old hat, China is still Australia's largest trading partner

RE: Validity of Freewill

Johnny_Sparton
I was asked by HHDL and a Bishop to explain a teaching given in Adelaide Catholic cathedral 1989, then supported by Aussies Deputy Prime Minister for a fair hearing in the Houses of Parliament and both leaders of major parties in parliament agreed on the floor of the house of parliament that I'd be given a fair hearing. So the prime Minister of Australia told his ministers they could take shots at me but if caught they had to resign, which a few have done. (my web robplum dot com bottom home page)
And so I recorded my explanation HHDL teaching in Law in two countries recorded.
So the answer to your question what happens if someone doesn't agree, they try to stitch you up for something you haven't done, they try to bankrupt you and block you from purchasing somewhere to live, the deploy a team and try and kill you, the judges, court registrars and lawyers in one country lie there teeth out, take away your tax file number, ignore prescribed rules and regulations, the acts, forge judges written decisions and refuse rights to appeal. In other country they simply lie in the courts, ignore high court judges determination, appoint governor generals that lie, threaten to throw a Prime Minister out of an airplane if she paid my owed pay and allowances and set up group of government ministers in the other country, a vigilante group who then engaged in all of the above. That is what they have done and are doingsigh

RE: Validity of Freewill

Once created karma's are certain, bound up in time, once we create the cause then the effect eventually turns up. It is important we understand that cause and effect is certain, it's also important with a good understanding of compassion, compassion for ones own self and other, because you can guarantee the seeds of your past will turn up and if we are not careful misdirected anger could arise, often we blame others instead of applying compassion, that's the best firewall we can arm ourselves with...angel

RE: Drawing Borders In The Melting Arctic | UPDATE 3/28/21 U.S. - Russian Arctic Moves

Now I read:
Moscow warns of ‘measures’ against any Western troop deployment in Ukraine, as Kiev cites guarantees of US support in a conflict

On Friday, the Ukrainian Defense Ministry issued a statement saying that it had received guarantees of American support after a telephone call with Washington’s top military official, Pentagon chief Lloyd Austen. “The US Secretary of Defense stressed that in the event of an escalation of Russian aggression, the United States will not leave Ukraine alone,” the Ministry said.

comments came as US President Joe Biden expressed Washington’s “unwavering support” for Kiev in the face of what he called “Russia’s ongoing aggression in the Donbass and Crimea.” In his Friday phone call with Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky, he also said his administration is committed to revitalizing the “strategic partnership” between the two nations.

I dunno why Americans don'''t get it!
Think US Peso...you cannot and will not be allowed to fund your economy by starting wars that kill millions.

RE: Rant about Ingredients

yeah soybean were modified so farmers could spray Round Up on them to kill weeds without effecting the soybean plant.
"Round Up" international regulators still disagree on whether long-term exposure to glyphosate can lead to non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Myself still have a long memory in the 1980's when was first "Round Up" is a brand-name herbicide that they now say contains the active ingredient glyphosate. Monsanto, an American agricultural chemical company, first sold the herbicide commercially in 1974.
I say it was first marketed in Australia in 1980's and the products promoters claimed it was a Hormone based spray that caused the plant cells to rapidly divide killing the plant. Later they changed the promotion details that then proposed the product was as safe as churches, green as the greenest wholemeal food products ever grown, words like: It prevents plants from making certain proteins they need to grow. It does this by shutting down the shikimic acid pathway in plants. Without this pathway, plants die in a matter of days or weeks. Some microorganisms have this same pathway, but humans and animals don’t.

Manufacturers mix glyphosate with other chemicals that cause it to stick tightly to the weeds and soil it’s sprayed on. This keeps it from drifting and damaging crops or other desirable plants.

Roundup and other Monsanto glyphosate pesticides are marketed in 130 countries and approved for 100 different kinds of crops.
Google you might find this : -
GMO & Biotechnology | Illinois Soybean Association
Scholarly articles for genetically modified soybean benefits
Genetic modification has the same goal. On our farms, GMOs provide notable benefits. Pairing GMO seeds with good farming practices reduces impact on the environment, with fewer chemical sprays, less fuel and less energy needed to grow a healthy crop. GMOs enable the abundant production of safe, healthy food.

RE: Concerning the non existence of god

I've been involved in studying, been a centre director (short time) HHDL got me to explain a teaching he gave in Adelaide, i was backed by Deputy PM Tim Fischer for a fair hearing in the Houses of Parliament.
However I am not qualified to teach Dharma, I'm a student.
I will state its important to seek qualified information from qualified teachers hopefully then we can access the path in future. It is the Buddhist view our nature is energy, moving energy, (subtle-winds) we all have been migrating from life to life since beginningless time, which is without end and therefor I strongly advise seek qualified information from qualified teachers while you can !!!

RE: Concerning the non existence of god

Athiest School of Buddhism

Oh i dunno anything about that sought of school nor do I want to.

My studies are limited to qualified teachers of the Mahayana tradition, the Dali Lamas (HHDL) who is protector of the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism. Which are the teachings of Lord Atisha, who completed his studies in what's now known as Sumatra. Lord Atisha completed his studies in what's known today as Sumatra in Indonesia before returning back to India, he then traveled to Tibet and his teachings were realized by Lord Je Tsongkhapa who is the founder of the Gelugpa School.
Indonesia has a lot of Buddhist relics, old temples, all dated back prior to Arab traders flooded the region.

The Karmapa Lama (who will stand in for HHDL when he enters the Bardo) is head of Tibetan Kagyu Buddhism school of thought. His linage dates back to around the time Shakyamuni Buddha lived.

Shakyamuni Buddha was the third Buddha known to have appeared on earth, evidence of Buddhism dates back 20,000 years.

RE: Concerning the non existence of god

"The Athiest School of Buddhism would have to be the most credible of the major religions. They also claim that life is an illusion - which it is. Reincarnation may be a real possibility if our identity survives death. In saying this, they do not admit the possibility of a God - as there are only perfected beings (Bodhisattvas), who have escaped the wheel of endless reincarnation"!
My view in relation to Mahayana school of thought, which I have for few years studied.
Your post seems inconsistent with the teachings;
Buddhists are not atheist, they also do believe that deities exist,

Bodhisattva practices (the bodhisattva vows) that are followed to develop Bodhicitta which is a practice of the path and develops aspiration for enlightenment.
Buddhist perceive many gods, they are beings that have gone beyond, they could be Muslim or Christian or other beings who have extinguished the causes for suffering rebirths (enlightenment). The Sutra teachings "Lam Rim" explain the basic teachings of Buddhism, (not I)

"life is an illusion"! Buddhism explains we have dualistic mind.

"Reincarnation"! reincarnation is certain for as long as sentient beings create the causes.

Friends of the Karmapa Lama just posted following on facebook, The Karmapa Lama reincarnation is his 17th incarnation. Think you'll find he knows what he is talking about!!

RE: Your way up

True compassion is a strength not a weakness. Loving-kindness - compassion arise from understanding nature and interdependent arising of suffering.
An understanding is skillfully achieved through the cultivation of Bodhichitta, that requires study.

RE: The Potus in Exile's awesome speech.....

Without hearing evidence post-election fraud case by stating that it lacked factual allegations essential to proceeding with case the judges ruled against the president Trump
Masquerading as judges made decisions without hearing any evidence what so ever.

Trump and his allies filed more than 40 lawsuits challenging the 2020 election results.
This link goes to a list of the law suits filed.


I acknowledge those were filed (I've not read all) however the point I am making is, refusing a right to appeal without a hearing or having regards to the appellants evidence is not a court hearing, its a refusal to hear the allegations and that is not lawful Jimmy.
You cannot plead your case in an application for leave to appeal, so all the judges findings should be set aside because an appeal has never been given proper judicial review and that is not lawful, it is doing justice for the people by the people or any other form of according to law.

Trump clearly filed on appeal to have heard serious allegations of vote rigging and he must be given a proper judicial hearing to test the evidence according law and international norms.

RE: Could I please go postal on an insurance company?

Best as i can understand the number of cheque payments here in Australia has declined by around 85 per cent over the past two decades, and cheques currently account for only a small share of non-cash payments. ... As more customers take up electronic payments, more businesses and other payees are likely to stop accepting cheques.
If i may from a veteran Orzzz get a PayPal account as giving out (what we call) Bpay (send money one bank customer to another) is not safe, your given out some of your bank details when you do that.
(A Bill Payment (or BPAY for short) is a fast, convenient and easy way to pay your bills. It is Australia's most widely used bill payment service which enables bill payers to transfer funds electronically from their bank accounts to billers.)

Using PayPal (which is an American Bank) is a safe guarantied method of paying. If company or government wont accept PayPal and i must I might either Bpay or use credit card however probably a debit-card would be better.
I prefer to transact using PayPal, often you can pay other party, by transferring payment PayPal will transfer payments to an email address. Either way PayPal generally guaranties obligations of the payee.

(A payee is a party in an exchange who receives payment. The payee is paid by cash, check, or another transfer medium by a payer. The payer receives goods or services in return.)
I do hope that's makes sense Ozzzwave happy new year
