FWIW, NaKaMOTO gives 666.

Code:
var str = "NaKaMOTO", sum = 0; for (var i = 0; i < str.length; i++) sum += str.charCodeAt(i);
666

Now just flip /change some letters to make Satan out of Satoshi and...

Sweet Mother of Jesus! BTC is Evil.

All previous versions of currency will no longer be supported as of this update

LOL. Yeah. The one-world currency, the first tool of the antichrist. Seems fitting, until you realize that it doesn't fit the criteria.

1. The one world currency proposed in the bible requires that a chip be implanted on someone to make transactions, and that no other means are allowed, this would require the currency to be controlled, and centralized.  Not bitcoin.

2. Bitcoin has many alternatives

3. There's some scenarios where bitcoins just will never be viable. Specifically the places where simple cash is most used.

4. The bible is dumb.

The best way to become an atheist is by reading the bible.

I'm more concerned with the religion OF bitcoin.  Their are FAR too many people who have near apocalyptic visions of how BTC will transform the world and bring torment an damnation upon governments, banks, Keynesians ...

Why does my world view scare you? Wink

I think the above is a very likely result of the invention of cryptocurrencies. The time-scale might be far different than a lot of people believe though (the timing of these things is unpredictable).

If you just accept the things how they are, and don't ask why and how you really are a dumb person, ignorant...
That's why there are many atheists, they realized some things on time.

So, should we start petitioning to have Bitcoin be accepted as a religion, so that it can have tax-free status? The Scientologists managed to get it...

I introduced bitcoin to a friend and they started talking about how the bible predicts a currency take over and its the start of the Revelation.

Has anyone else run into this problem?

I think the best rebuttal is to say that the paper dollar already did that by convincing us that it is gold.

If everyone is thinking outside the box, there is a new box.

We can all agree most religious people are nuts

That's pretty funny, considering that Bitcoin itself is pretty much a religion at this point
At least it isn't about some magical man from the sky that can make something out of nothing. Plus, we've been to the moon, and still no man from the sky.

You clearly misunderstand religion.

Which religion? There are so many of them. All of them claim to have a monopoly on god. Pick the wrong one, or be unlucky enough to be born into the wrong culture, and the all loving god, will punish you for eternity in fiery hell.  Nice.

Yet not one of them claims there is literally a magical man in the sky.  There are clearly problems with the ways people interpret religious texts, but there is much wisdom that can be gleamed from them when they are approached with a critical and logical viewpoint.  But that is tangential to the comment I was addressing.

Theres a thread about Illuminati you might wanna jump into.
Also, http://www.lolcatbible.com/index.php?title=Main_Page
If anyone wants a lolzy project, replace mentionings of money or sheckels of silver with BTC.

Wit all my solidarities,
