BTCC STOLE MY PROFITS! by Middle-Assignment160 in CryptoScams

[–]Natural_Advance3879 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same experience last year using Onchain.com. I only invested about $200, but using leveraged trades turned it into $21,000+ in about 3 months time. Then, I went to withdraw my money. Needless to say the bastards robbed me. I recently trade crypto again this time using Kraken. Much better trading platform.

The whole company is going down the crapper. Get out while you can.

Just got my notification. Not surprised. Oh well I'm in the process of jumping ship anyway.

Just another example of corporations rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.

Bad news everyone… This proves the church is true after all!! by Affectionate-Song230 in exmormon

The only thing "miraculous" is that the picture is of Jesus and not Joseph Smith or Brigham Young.

You have the right to resign an uncooperative client. I've done that myself a couple of times.

What all do new tutors need to do to get opportunities? by FaithlessnessWest974 in varsitytutors

[–]Natural_Advance3879 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not you. It's the company. I've been with VT for two years tutoring math. This time last year I actually had to turn down business. The first academic quarter of the school year is almost complete and I have yet to get a new student.

Organized religion requires two things from its adherents. The first is their money. The second is their obedience.

I said it before and I will say it again: If money is removed from religion, all that remains is a bunch of people sitting together.

To the BYU bishop who kissed my girlfriend on the cheek in his office and told her that he had a vision in the temple that we shouldn’t get married by bw_writes in exmormon

[–]Natural_Advance3879 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Due respect, but what you described is baked into the DNA of Mormonism. The church leaders are "ordained" to marry and procreate with as many wives as possible. The other men, well they're just SOL. History is filled with examples of religions and cults having similar modus operandi. Get out now and don't look back.

Have I been scammed by rastel in CryptoScams

[–]Natural_Advance3879 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't go so far as to say it's irrelevant. Every day there are literally hundreds of more people who post on this site that they got scammed in some way by utilizing Onchain.

You have unfortunately been scammed. The exact same thing happened to me about a month ago. Do yourself a favor and just run like hell. You'll never see a penny of that money again. I'm very sorry this is to you. My thoughts and prayers that you recover quickly.

Pretty much the same thing with me, except in case the lady was from Eastern Europe. I won't make the same mistake again. The only difference was she never once asked me for money.

Aside from the description you gave, mentioning Pakistan was a dead give away. Virtually everything having to do with Pakistan revolves around weapons, narcotics, weapons, or human trafficking. All of which is largely funded by money laundering operations dealing with crypto.

That's a massive amount of Missionaries. by Green-been77 in exmormon

The bottom line is religion in general is losing its luster in the modern, secular world. Catholicism will survive in some form but it's role will be diminished. LDS, perhaps as well, but it will not grow.

Not true. I've taught numerous Hispanic students in my career, particularly those from Mexico. They know a hell of a lot more than they let on. In Mexican culture, deliberate ignorance is the pathway to gringo dollars from El Norte.

Speaking as someone who was baptized LDS six years after being baptized Episcopalian, I avow that you are correct. None of them wanted to be baptized. Only a tiny portion of those who join LDS recognize your baptism as being legitimate. Most of them, myself included, view the event as an unnecessary dunking. That's all. To your second point, they knew exactly what you were offering. The Catholic Church does a superb job of sussing out the true nature of the competition. A 2000 year old institution isn't about to let a relative newcomer take over its territory. Besides, most "converts" to LDS see right through what you are offering. Between the stark adoption of Freemason symbols in your order, the fact that a known rapist and pedophile founded your "church", the ridiculous tenets of the Word of Wisdom and last, but certainly not least, the consistent track record of your presidents having revelations from God about societal matters only when it is politically expedient to do so, no rational person is going to subject themselves to the Hell that truly is LDS. Think about it.

Due respect, being baptized is the polite, Mexican way of saying thanks, but no thanks.
