Do you (personally) think it would be a good idea for Satoshi to return?
Either now, or in the future?

And if he did, how do you think the rest of the world would react?
(Especially some governments)


I see it a bit like religion, the person is there to start with and disappears leaving their legacy to increase, whilst hoping that the creator comes back to help whenever things go bad. 
In either case I don't think the return would help anyone or anything, except for destroy the legacy that has been so well built.

Which would make Bitcoin... a cult? If people were rational, Satoshi's return should be quite welcoming. Is Bitcoin a logical endeavor or superstitious hokey one?

In a way, yes.
It is actually not the first time I have seen religion and Bitcoin posted in one day: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11480305

OK, if you see it like religion, and you make it sound like Jesus' story, who was tortured and crucified and obviously disappeared,
what does that make Satoshi and the feds story?

Was Satoshi "cruscified"?
Did he sacrifice his life to offer us economic and monetary freedom?

Again such a thread? How many have we had already?

Satoshi has completed his task, which was making sure the community takes over Bitcoin to bring it to the next level. His plan worked out well. So, nope, no need for him to come back.

So you're saying that it's OK that he left because he done his job?
And it had nothing to do with Gavin talking to the feds?

Do you not wonder that maybe he was forced out?

It's pure speculation, he might have, or might have not been forced to leave. We will probably never know. I can't complain as Bitcoin has grown so massively. It's on the right track.

Beside that, I can't see him improve Bitcoin more than already has happened and will happen by the core devs.

I think he should come back if some big changes in the protocol are proposed and heavily discussed, no need for him until that time. But only if the community/miners/devs are taking position against the freedom in bitcoin.

Like what kind of changes?

Also, why does he have to return only if his technical expertise is required?

I don't see any real reason why he should come back. But that doesn't stop me from wondering about it...
