Question: What does our "Bitcoin Jesus" think about being called Bitcoin Jesus?

I am curious if Roger has ever commented on what he thinks/feels about the nickname "Bitcoin Jesus".
Also how did it start, what is the origin of people calling him 'the great messiah'?
ps. The Beatles once said they were "bigger than Jesus", do we want to aim a bit higher....?

can't find the link I saw interview with , but Roger said he was at a bbq at a friends house couple years ago and was showing the kids of his friends how bitcoin worked and was a sending them small amounts like candy
his friend commented on how all the klids were gathered round him and were interested and he said' You're like a bitcoin Jesus'

the name stuck

I think he just finds mildly amusing and doesn't call himself this
I am Bonkers BTW
