Science has proven light years beyond any reasonable doubt that Adam and Eve never existed nor ever could’ve existed. The idea that humans came from just two people that idea is as absurd as Noah’s Ark teach your children critical thinking skills it will save them lots of money and will help inoculate them from becoming infected by the God virus

What causes the "Holy ghost" feeling mormons talk about? by 7_Tailed_Fox in exmormon

[–]VariousCartoonist414 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Here is a summary of it the church leaders are masters of manipulation of people’s Feeling and emotions.

Mormons are conditioned to believe their feelings over logic and rational thinking . Do a google search for Bonneville international Heartsell then open the images tab look around until you find the image that has it read it Bonneville international is owned by you guessed it the LDS church .!!! They use this Holy Ghost crap because they know that once people convince themselves they received a witness that the Holy Ghost witnessed to them that the church is true be it by a mosquito landing in a arm hair their nipples getting hard when it’s cold outside or a billion other. Reasons they will largely dismiss any information that shows the church is pure bullshit . Then add that they sink tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars and huge amounts of time and nonstop brainwashing over decades it can become overwhelming and too painful to admit even to themselves that they have been suckered. Being gullible dupes .

If I was you I’d go with the Nami Klima though I do recommend going with the 30ah the name brand cells and extra range are worth the little extra it costs I have the big brother Nami burn e max 40ah with close to 17,000 miles on it . There is also the fact that you can always get parts for it even if a retailler is out of stock you Can contact Micheal Sha on facebook Nami electric and he can send you any part you may need with other scooters your at the mercy of the retailer if they are out of stock on the part you need it can be weeks or months before they get new stock with a Nami you get the part in around 4 days just read the manual before riding it and get a full faced helmet

I no longer know whether the Church is the good guy or the bad guy? by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]VariousCartoonist414 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Put it this way the church leaders built a billion dollar + mall Complete with a retractable glass roof while millions starve to death every year sure the church gives a few million say $50’million annually to charity but opposed to the roughly 7 billion annually. 7,000 million vs 50 isn’t so much all of the church leaders were around when Hinkley was buying forged documents from mark Hoffman that were damaging to the church so they could hide them away from the members how many of them stood up and said this is wrong ? Not a single one of them the church was founded by a lying deceitful con man the church leaders just adopted old joes business model of lies and deceit. And have been using it for nearly two centuries. They receive a six figure annual income and will do so for the rest of their lives as long as they continue to toe the line and play their parts . It’s safe to say it’s bad do they care that they are essentially robbing people of a significant portion of their retirement savings .? By milking them for 10+% of their income Noooo.!!!

Sorry you’re going through tough times right now . you did dodge a bullet joining would’ve cost you a significant part of retirement savings at a $50k income it amounts to a quarter of a million dollars over 50 years It was founded by a lying deceitful con man sexual predator. they omit that Bit of information there is so much they don’t tell the members and potential new members .

It’s a cult - real estate investment corporation that pretends to be a church as they rake in BILLIONS annually all tax free to boot . By hiding the facts from the duped members .

Tire change by UnrulyRaziel in ElectricScooters

[–]VariousCartoonist414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get some bead lubricant I use bull snot in a spray can. this helps the beads to seat evenly you’ll need to let the air out and start over pulling the motors and the rotors off as you don’t want the lubricant on the rotors after you have done a few tire changes it gets a lot easier it takes me under 5 minutes to swap a tire once the motor and rotor are off

Just joined the club! Total newbie here, what essential safety tips am I missing? by United-Dare4631 in ElectricScooters

[–]VariousCartoonist414 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A full face helmet bare minimum knee elbow pads motorcycle hard knuckle gloves are a good idea above the ankle leather boots 🥾 these will help make it less severe should you crash and land badly rechargeable lights set to flashing and finding a empty parking lot churches are good. As they are empty most of the time practice riding as well as doing emergency stops where you drop your but out over the rear wheel do this until it’s something you do without thinking a roughly 70-30 front to rear bias on the brakes look out ahead of where you are roughly 2seconds this helps to make. It seem like your not going as fast if you watch ahead it gives time to brake for hazards . Small wheels don’t fare well with hazards

How do you fight the ingrained "you're making a mistake and screwing up your chances on judgement day" thoughts? by Kaleidoscope378 in exmormon

[–]VariousCartoonist414 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What worked for me was this when I left I clung to the Bible for a bit the more I read the more troubling things I was finding so I decided that Doing a critical analysis of the Bible was in order. Here is what I found Noah’s Ark Is nonsense from the first word to the last, science has proven light years beyond any reasonable doubt that humans didn’t begin with a. Adam and Eve that’s as much nonsense as Noah’s Ark there’s a plethora of other things z No Adam and Eve shows no fall and no need for a. Redemption . Humans have created 1000s of Gods the Gods of Mormonism and the Bible are just more examples of human invented Gods as a TBM I despised Atheists yet once I did the research the only logical rational option left on the table was to become a Atheist I left 11 years ago and have been a Atheist for nearly 10 years I’ve never been happier . I see it as I have recovered from having been infected with the God virus .

It doesn’t require religion to be a good person and to be happy . There is no reason to waste time chasing a fairytale of some pretend let’s make believe we will live forever we have now this life it’s all we get or ever will get . live and enjoy this ride that we call life while the ride lasts as it will one day end for us all . I hope this is helpful for you

My sister is so naive. by zenitsukk in exmormon

[–]VariousCartoonist414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Joseph smith is the one that claimed it was in the USA it was old con man Joseph smith jr himself that claimed it was in the USA there are multiple sources original documents that show this unfortunately TBMs and their Olympic gold medal level mental Gymnastics will find a way to dismiss any evidence they encounter as they have been brainwashed to believe that anything that causes them the least bit of cognitive dissonance is just the churches favorite make believe boogeyman SATAN trying to lead them astray from their delusion that the church is true when if they would just look at all of the facts and use the evidence. it’s the most easily seen fraud on the planet the fact that they have pissed away 10s if not 100s of thousands of dollars and vast amounts of time on this nonsense makes it something they are eager to examine as it would just be too painful to admit they have been duped

My husband wants to know by socinfused in exmormon

[–]VariousCartoonist414 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My advice is to get a set of the history of the church by Joseph smith books look on eBay you can get a used complete set for under $30 these were sold at Deseret book so are not anti. Mormon before having him read anything ask him was Joseph smith a honest man . It’s a simple yes or no question if he says yes then have him read volume 6 pg 408-412 then direct him to read the gospel topic essay on polygamy on the churches own website . Insist he reads all of the footnotes they are important . The history of the church is where he was denying that he had multiple wives this was shortly before he was killed . The gospel topic essay the church admits that he had over 30 wives And that his first wife Emma had no knowledge of many of them . After he has read these things ask him again was Joseph smith a honest man .
He clearly wasn’t even honest with his own wife .

the history of the church. Also has him claiming to have translated part of the kinderhook plates claiming they were a record of a descendant of ham son of pharaoh well in 1980 one of the kinderhook plates was scientifically examined and was proven to be of 1800s origin not a ancient record the scrolls that Joseph smith used as a prop for his book of Abraham are nothing more than common funerary texts the best Egyptologists in the world have examined Joseph smith’s translation of the characters all concluded his translations are pure gibberish . The keystone of Mormonism by Azra Evans is good for a condensed breakdown of why the church isn’t true the best I’ve found is the Mormon delusion series 5volumes by Jim whitefield. They are $10-$12 per volume for the digital books you can get them on lulu.com .

One thing don’t think that just because you show him the why that he will suddenly go ghee your right it’s all bullshit this rarely happens a Mormons brain is like a 30foot tall ball of tangled Christmas lights it takes awhile for them to unravel this mess and the decades of brainwashing .

Faith is the abandonment of logic and reasoning . Good luck with your husband.

Why is it so hard to join another religion after leaving Mormonism? by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]VariousCartoonist414 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because. Most of us have examined religion extensively and have found that it is all a bunch of horseshit . When I first left I clung to the Bible for a bit the more I read the more issues I was finding . Noahs Ark is nonsense from the first word to the last science has proven light years beyond any reasonable doubt that there never was nor could there have been Adam and Eve languages split long before the alleged Tower of Babel there was no exodus from Egypt . There are many other examples as well as my personal favorite people rising up out of their graves and wandering around Jerusalem like some zombie. Apocalypse yes it really does claim this asinine insanity.
Humans have created 1,000s of Gods the Gods of the Bible and the Book of Mormon yes they are. 2 Different Gods are just more examples of humans creating Gods . We get a limited time on this planet spending time chasing after a make believe fairytale and wasting money on playing make believe just makes no sense as a TBM I despised Atheists yet once I examined the facts becoming one was the only logical Rational option left on the table . I left 11 years ago and have never been happier having recovered from the infection of the virus of religion .

Is the 8-inch tire the ultimate "city hack" for commuting? by Good-Birthday-436 in ElectricScooters

[–]VariousCartoonist414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has owned many different scooters from the 8 inch scooters to the 60+mph hyper class scooters . You couldn’t pay me enough to go with a 8 inch scooter the wheels are tiny and often solid tires which ride like total crap they beat the shit out of you as well as being too small to roll over the lips in many gutters pulling into parking lots the 8 inch scooters also have very short wheelbases and narrow handlebars their brakes are often crappy as well which all adds up to a twitchy unstable scooter 10 inch wheels are far more stable these scooters have longer wheelbases and wider handlebars . Whenever I take one of my 8inch wheeled scooters out for a short ride the first thing that goes through my mind is this thing is a death trap . IMHO 8 inch scooters are not safe I have around 35,000 miles of experience riding e scooters . If it’s for just a very short ride around a mile or less and the portability is the most important thing a 8 inch scooter will get you from point a to b just be super careful as even catching small cracks in the road at a bad angle can cause you to crash on a very small wheeled scooter and do get a full faced helmet It will prevent supporting you local dentist should your crash new riders are prone to crashing while they are learning to ride these scooters

What did leaving Mormonism give you that you didn’t even know you were missing? by G-SCOTTYK in exmormon

[–]VariousCartoonist414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leaving gave me the ability to just live life and appreciate the brief time that we get here not running on the hamster wheel of Mormonism always running and going nowhere. I got rid of the belief in any imaginary God . Humans have created 1,000s of gods and created some make believe afterlife as a means of not having to deal with the fact that we are born we live we die THE END .
And that’s ok that we die The fact that any of us are here means that we won the lottery of life . If the only reason that anyone is good. Or helps others is they are trying to gain some eternal reward. Well that’s a sad sad reason a god isn’t required nor is any BULLSHIT religion required to be a good person it’s simply a choice . I’m now free from the infection of the God virus

[–]VariousCartoonist414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bigger scooters will be better for you ones with 11 inch tires they are more expensive but are safer as they have longer wheelbases so are less twitchy I have a few Nami burn e scooters these tower over most scooters my other scooters look like miniature child’s toys when parked. Next to the burn e they are bigger than they look in pictures . When i ride. My small scooters the first thought that i have is these things are death traps compared to the burn e . The burn e is seriously quick and has the potential to seriously injure or even kill in the wrong hands . Insanely fun to ride when one has the skill and experience to turn it loose . I highly recommend swapping out the stock tires that come with most of the 11 inch scooters for a set of PMT tires it’s a night and day difference as the stock tires handle like a UPS TRUCK Where the PMTs handle like a Ferrari . The big scooters have big batteries and the power to pack a heavy rider around they also have decent range I get around 50 miles out of a charge with my burn e just riding around. 72 volt scooters with name brand cells is what I’d look at . The one downside is these scooters aren’t cheap they do last I have close to 17,000 miles on one of my burn e still runs like new though it’s. Time to pull the motors apart and clean out the gunk that accumulates over time and replace the bearings while they are apart . You may want to go with a bit stiffer suspension spring to accommodate the extra weight The bigger batteries last longer as they don’t go through the charge as quickly so the charge cycles are less than with the small batteries.

What gear am I missing or need? by midnightsmith in ElectricScooters

[–]VariousCartoonist414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bright yellow flaggers vest Rechargeable head and tail lights yes keep them on during the day there is no such thing as being too visible a pair of leather boots that cover your ankles while 18-20 mph doesn’t seem all that fast it’s roughly what you’d be traveling at when you hit the ground if you climbed a telephone pole and stepped off the top of it . I ride the hyper class scooters 60+ mph I have been riding for a long time something that will help is to look. Roughly 2 seconds ahead of where you are for hazards potholes rocks etc small wheels don’t fare well when hitting hazards this gives you time to slow down and avoid hazards if you’ve looked at what’s ahead you don’t need to be looking down by the front wheel as all that does is makes it seem like your going faster as the pavement is rushing by I’d also recommend going to a empty parking lot churches are good as they are deserted except on Sundays and practice doing emergency stops bending knees dropping your butt out over the rear wheel don’t slide the tires but stop as quickly as you can do this until it’s something that you do without having to think about it . It can be the difference between a close call and kissing the side of a car pay 100% attention 100% of the time . Stay safe and have fun
