Bitcoin Forum

I just had this idea and thought I'd ask. Share your story!

Non-denominational Christian here. No, I don't pray for Bitcoin. Don't like the idea that people call on God when they want something. Just my opinion...

>inb4 thread gets derailed into massive religious debate

Oooooh let me start!!!

THERE IS NO GOD ALL CHRISTIANS ARE DUMBASSES!
/sarcasm


But for real I give this thread one page at best before it goes to shit.

I sacrificed a goat the other day in order to prevent a 51.  Does that count? ;)

Thank, you obviously saved us all.

Huh?

 51% attack Bro...

durr

I can pray harder than any of you bitches.

I'm the piousest [sic] guy the little Amletts want to be like
On my knees day and night scoring points for the afterlife
So don't be vain, and don't be whiney
Or else my brother might have to get medieval on your hiney

;D Weird Al saves the day.

Dear Lord Baby Jesus, we'd also like to thank you for Atlas. We hope that you can use your baby Jesus powers to heal him and his horrible acne. It smells terrible and the dogs are always bothering with it...

 ;D Ricky Bobby 4TW!

While I do not beleive bitcoins has much to do with religion, it seems the US 20 dollar bill has "In god we trust", so the idea of trust in god and trust in currency being related is not new. I place my trust in god that my decisions are righteous and follow his will.

You sacrificed only 1 GOAT ? OMG!

You are obviously not devoted enough, you should take a trip to the Gadhimal festival in Nepal to really let the sacrifices surround you.

A quarter million animals gets slaughtered there, how's that for preventing a 51 ?? ;)

Maybe we should do like L. Ron Hubbard and start our on Church. Which sounds better,
The Bitcoin Church
or the
The Church of Cryptography
If done properly we can get tax-exempt status just like Scientology. OK. All set.

It's actually been up since who knows how long ago, maybe november '11
But anyways: http://bitprayer.com/
It's not my site.

In high school, my physics teacher introduced me to Jehovah Witness. In the mid '80s I attended Unity (the same Church that Bruce Wagner attends). Today, at 52, I lean toward Atheism, but would entertain the thought of participating in a Raëlism movement (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ra%C3%ABlism#Other_activities.2C_outreach_and_advocacy) once a year.

C'est tout! (i4t)

What appears to us through math and science models is only a glimpse of existence through blurry optics. The self-similarity of nature seems to permeate the fabric of existence. I doubt that we can know everything, but we may create something in our own image that is able to understand even more than we.  Maybe that's what being a parent/God is.

I wonder if Luke Jr. wears a shirt that reads, "I hash, therefore I am."

Would that be advocating drug abuse?

Only if others read into that half of the double entendre. (I'll patiently await your reply--touché (i4t))

Oh boy, all is perfectly clear now. No wonder that Bitcoin struggles if only 2 people pray for it.

"Anything that can be misconstrued, will be, whether it is a t-shirt, text chat, or what she said." I think that's a corollary of Murphy's Law.

i'm not superstious but if the bible were right then I doubt any of your prayers will be answered. The bible is clear that loans are a sin, an "abomination" in fact. If you have ever taken or provided a loan then why would god help you with your ill gotten gain?

I am selling my prayer

Sent me 0.001 BTC and I will pray for whatever you want  ;D

I'm pretty sure if god existed he wouldn't work that way

perhaps if you prayed for some noble thing you were unfairly left without but this way, surely no..

lol wtf

I just stumbled on the weird part of bitcointalk, i'll show myself out

I'm not religious, but i prayed to hit nice numbers when i was gambling heavy and i got lucky, maybe it worked, don't want to test it again since it's not needed.

Is there a religion/faith revolving around bitcoin?

Religion... constant disagreement. Don't bring it into bitcoin world.
