Question for everyone who does NOT believe in the bible. If it turns out that Bitcoin (or another world currency) does quite literally fulfill that prophecy at some point in the future, would you begin to believe the bible might be true?

I believe the people who wrote the book where trying to share knowledge.
It just happens that some of the principles are appropriate, but as every reading must be interpreted by the reader.
It is my opinion it is a great work when viewed in hindsight.

Bitcoin is an alien technology designed to replace humans with AI which was programmed to utter the words. "Download Bitcoin-Qt"

I am sure if you read all 31 pages dedicated to the topic you will see a lot of (anti and mono) theist fundamentalism.

In keeping with the OP, not using Bitcoin, to prevent a prophecy foretold in the Bible should be a topic that invites humor not hatred.
My apologies I didn't intend to offend anyone.

That's a clear leap to a conclusion. The implanted chip may turn out to be a bitcoin wallet slash client. Matched with a way to connect slash network with other nodes and control transactions and addresses and BAM! Bible prophecy fulfilled.

It is plausible, the Bible prophecy is referring to the USD fiat global reserve currency, creating debt for the unborn.

But thinking that would just be ignorant, it's obvious, you have a point it is probably Bitcoin!

preemptive SHssush! and Shush! again :P

haha oic :))) I read all the way to page 2 before I saw something I wanted to rpely to.
My apologies for being ignorant of this meme-esque thing you say.

Now zip it? Is that how you talk to people? You're trying to throw what I said out the window and didn't even provide an intellectual basis to support it.
What everyone supposedly knows isn't the same as a fact. And if it comes down to it, the bible isn't even factual either.
Now go be stupid somewhere else.

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.

That's a clear leap to a conclusion. The implanted chip may turn out to be a bitcoin wallet slash client. Matched with a way to connect slash network with other nodes and control transactions and addresses and BAM! Bible prophecy fulfilled.

We all know it, the Bible is referring to fiat, based on the debt of the unborn. Bitcoin participation is voluntary, fiat and being born are not.

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?

For what it's worth this is written in the bible 4,000 years ago. There will be a digital currency and you will have a mark or a chip of some sort implented in you that is your wallet. Without the "mark of the beast" you won't be able to be part of society anymore as you can no longer sell or buy without it.

The only people that are delusional are the ones who ignore the fact that these things were written 4,000 years ago and are happening exactly as written about, if that's not enough proof of god's existence for you, than nothing will be, and by god I mean Jesus, as it's written in the Bible.

Another thing written in the Bible, about how people will turn away from god near the end. Now go troll among yourselves and enjoy this world while you can because in a short while, god will wipe you out of your worthless pitiful existence, while the ones who believed in him will live for eternity, those who have ears let them hear.

You need to realize what distinguishes Bitcoin from nearly all religions is it professes a negative belief: instead of claiming the existence of some omnipotent entity, it relies on the assumption that some cryptographic algorithm are humanly infeasible to break.
