Christianity next!

Seriously wtf, if you're gonna let other religions thrive, why shut this one down? If you're gonna argue that it's a scam, then it can also be argued that Christianity is a scam (and every other religion). Plus it's the people's fault for being so stupid and gullible, if they are and are willing to give their money to this organization then tip of the hat to Scientology for knowing how to pick idiots. Double standards bother me.

The difference is that Christianity doesn't require you to pay money to 'spiritually advance' through it.

Here you have to pay taxes if you belong to church :nuts: "to maintain graveyards & churches" they say but really it just goes to the pockets of the priests :p

Yes they do, and there's a reason Lutheranism was created. Using religion for money is a scam don't let them hit your wallet. Religion doesn't need money to work.

Some of them do. I've been to Lutheran churches, or so they say anyway, that want 15% tithe which is more than most churches want.

The Christian Church has not always been so touchy feely. This is quite the new thing. There is lots of Fire and Brimstone in the bible, and it is just recently that it has not been concentrated on (the Inquisition, Crusades.. etc).

Amid the mass of aid agencies piling in to help Haiti quake victims is a batch of Church of Scientology "volunteer ministers", claiming to use the power of touch to reconnect nervous systems.

Clad in yellow T-shirts emblazoned with the logo of the controversial US-based group, smiling volunteers fan out among the injured lying under makeshift shelters in the courtyard of Port-au-Prince's General Hospital.

A wealthy private donor provided his airplane to fly in 80 volunteers from Los Angeles, along with 50 Haitian-American-doctors, in a gesture worth 400,000 dollars, said a Parisian volunteer who gave her name as Sylvie.

"We're trained as volunteer ministers, we use a process called 'assist' to follow the nervous system to reconnect the main points, to bring back communication," she said.

WELL! I guess when I smashed my toe all three times, touching it would have healed it. (Which is exactly what happened a few times. You know, to apply any medicine, you have to touch it...) I don't think that worked out so well. I think Father Time helped me a bit more than the touches.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though

    I think we need to add something to the bottom of the front page that shows the Headline News forum that has a link to go to the News Forum Index so people can see there is more news. Do you guys see what I am saying, lets say you read all the articles on the front page and you get to the end and it just ends, no kind of link for MOAR!
