Title: What currency would Jesus use? Post by: Colargol on August 20, 2011, 08:27:44 PM "My house shall be called a house of fair exchange for all the nations? But you have made it a den of thieves." And paypal and the bankers heard it and were seeking a way to destroy him, for they feared him, because all the crowd was astonished at his teaching and his new crypto-currency. And because of this he changed his name... and went away into the desert... but not before leaving the people with the Holy Genesis Block. And his father looked at the code [Gr. "logos"] and saw that it was good. ~~~ Title: Re: What currency would Jesus use? Post by: edd on August 20, 2011, 08:31:00 PM Why appeal to any authority, even biblical?

It was your work in this area [satire using image and text], as well as that of others here, which inspired me. :) Maybe we can take some lessons from people like Banksy and sneak bitcoin logos and subtle references into all kind of places...
