With the numbers of churches and mosques that we have I know if Bitcoins is been enlightened to us through this regions then people will trust and believe in BTC, Bitcoin will surely go more far and spread wide with this ideas.

So you believe that the church, chastised for questionable financial practices such as using donations for personal gain or not being transparent about their finances, can contribute more to raising awareness about bitcoin? Anyone intelligent enough to understand the distinction between religion and finance will find this irritating.

Imagine hearing bitcoin referred to as the "coin chosen by God Almighty" — I'm sure I'd never want to talk about bitcoin ever again if that happens. Religion's only job is to spread gospel not some technical shit that they know nothing about.

Firstly religious leaders play a very interesting roles in the life of people and are seen as role models and mentors some see them as a father figure, so what ever this set of people tell there followers that is what exactly they will all do.

This is not right, majority of Nigerian citizens are Muslims, Bitcoin is haram for Muslims due to high risk and there are a lot articles discuss about this matter. I know there's will be an user will disagree with this and give a source if there a Muslim's master saying Bitcoin is legal etc, but it still doesn't change Bitcoin is high risk.

Secondly Bitcoin is better than saving in a bank because it appreciate while it is been saved in our wallets and it is also an investment, so many people complain from there day to day activities with the local banks of been debited without cause and reducing the expected savings this is not a good reputation and Bitcoin has solve this aspect of issues, with the security of wallets, hard ware and software wallets fraud is been reduced making both the old and the young to believe that they are saved from been scammed through BTC.

If the banks are debit your funds without cause and reducing your money, it's mean your banks are corrupted. But I think they have a rule which you're not understand why the reason it's happen.

Software wallet is prone of getting hacked, it's not secure to hold for long term.

It doesn't sound so great to me that religious leaders will preach Bitcoin to the believers with the presumption that whatever these leaders say, their followers will blindly comply. In itself, it doesn't sound nice already. It seems the way they get into Bitcoin is antithetic to Bitcoin's philosophy.

Not to mention that these leaders are basically spiritual authorities, probably not well-equipped to make sure the believers know and understand all the implications, especially security matters, regarding Bitcoin.

#Just my thoughts.

Regarding religious leaders in both churches and mosques who can tell or teach about Bitcoin, I think this is not a good suggestions, there are so many people who really believe what is conveyed by religious leaders as the true truth, if they teaches about Bitcoin even though theirs doesn't have the appropriate knowledge then it will be like a disaster because you shouldn't let people who don't know Bitcoin properly teach it to many people because this can make them wrong in making decisions and will only make them think that Bitcoin is a way to get rich where this is already a big mistake.

Doesn't promoting Bitcoin through a church sound wrong to you lol? Knowing the fact that people can lose their life savings if they went in without knowing what they're doing.

Spreading bitcoin is not an easy thing, especially for people who don't really understand technology.
we have to slowly teach it, so that people understand and understand about bitcoin.
and teaching bitcoin through religion is not a bad thing, especially the leaders who teach it.
but keep in mind that teaching bitcoin through religious channels must be more significant.

I don't want to cooperate with religious leaders to promote Bitcoin. Let they do their religious jobs.

With religions, people are so fanatic and they can be misled by religious leaders that we can not exclude if you want to use religious leaders to advertise Bitcoin. I see more adverse effects than good effects from this.

Bitcoin itself is already a kind of religion and the Bitcoin religious communities are becoming bigger world wide. If you want to contribute for Bitcoin adoption, let's build your community but please don't mix it with religious communities and religious leaders.

Passing through the religious section might be effective a little bit, not only did I hear but I have seen so many people doing unthinkable things just because their religion leader instructed them to do so.
But before something like this can work it means those head of the religion has to be aware of what Bitcoin is and also know a little bit of how the process works, that way it will be more easier to convince the congregation to adopt Bitcoin.

Don't forget that Bitcoin is volatile meaning it can also depreciate. If you intend to go one with this initiative of yours then you probably should prepare the mind of those you want to enlighten about Bitcoin. If you decides to tell them only about how Bitcoin value can appreciate what then will happen when it starts depreciating and you and I know that those you have spoken with concerning Bitcoin are definitely going to tag you and Bitcoin as a scam.

All I'm trying to say Op is that what ever you do don't just tell people about the advantages /benefits of that thing alone try to also add the disadvantages/risk-involved to it, if they decide that they're cool with it then that's fine rather than them discovering it the hard way.
