Title: Bitcoin Church
Post by: FinShaggy on May 22, 2013, 12:56:41 AM
Is there a Bitcoin church yet?

A church that believes it can make capitalism perfect through bitcoin.
A church that believes that Bitcoin can end world hunger
A church that believes in solving the worlds problems through Bitcoin.

Would anyone be interested in starting a "Church of Development". Where "god" is "the future", and we worship by making it better. Basically just a developmental coin charity that religiously works towards the future.

I am a certified minister and I will work to get non-profit status in my state, but here is the base for the organization, I already have 200 members:

If anyone wants to get married or exercise demons, I can legally do the ceremony :)

All churches file for tax exemption. They still use and accept money, so they still get taxed.

 I know this is not correct, because there is an association for unregistered Churches. They believe in the true separation of Church and State.

  " The power to tax is the power to destroy", this even includes the power to destroy churches.
