I'm sure people have noticed how eerily similar to religion Bitcoin is becoming. The mythical founder, the email disciples, the followers. This message board as a proto-bible of texts, the wiki and the churches efforts to consolidate a one-true-book. The false prophet of Real Solid, the breakway protestants of Litecoin and the cults of BBQ, IO,IX..... the small monastery of Dev coin. Our prayers to Satoshi in the form of mining- doing Satoshis' work, The Charlaten of Pirate. And of course- the eternal blockchain. The collective memory of our entire universe.

So why doesn't someone just do it already- and register the Church of Satoshi? There is certainly enough philosophy here.

eidt: Namecoin can be the lost 13th tribe of Alt Chains.

i must confess, your description of the Blockchain technology and Satoshi and its supporters and maximalists sound so familiar with the reference point but then it can not be compared to that of which you recommend. The Bible is not just a book but represents instructions and the church is also sacred as the Bible is.

How does one become ordained?

A 2012 quote. But still.

How does one get ordained?

Searing. Bishop of The Church of Satoshi.

Hopefully, we won't find out he is the Anti-Christ: Craig Wright. (shudder)

It is good to see loyalist of bit coin but when we speak of a church of satoshi it will bring another meanig. THe church if satoshi would somehow imply not loyalty but worship of bitcoin, it is like considering satoshi as a god. It seems that an occult is born out of loyalty to satoshi. Maybe we can change the name instead of church of satoshi to the brotherhood of satoshi.

^yes this includes building an asic "shrine" ~ the small temple i'm building is going to be wind and water powered! **pics coming soon :-D

Don't worry, guys - I got this:

Cool

Our Satoshi, who art in blockchain,
Encrypted be thy name
Thy transactions come
Thy will be done on ASICS
As it is on Github.
Give us this day our daily mining reward,
And forgive our zero-conf double-spends
As we forgive them that double-spend against us.
And lead us not into alt-chains
But deliver us from Ripple
For thine is the mining rig,
The hashing power, and the block reward,
For ever and ever
Amen.

Where oh where did we go wrong, great Satoshi?

You're right though. Bitcoin has become a major world religion. But the people have turned from the creator. They like the stories of an immortal creator. Anything less and they are ready to burn you at the stakes.

Silversmith follows the Anti-Satoshi!

It is not your fault that ye sinned against Satoshi,
it is the beast from the abyss who hath deceived thee,
and so shall we purge this uncleanliness from your soul.

Prepare the ropes and logs for the fire!

Sorry but, "The Church of Craig Wright and Latter Day Coins" doesn't have the same ring to it.........

Latter Day should be "Latter-day." Every mormon knows this.

Geez, this thread has been around for years and you're the first to mention it! (non-mormon here).

Quote from: crazy_rabbit on November 03, 2012, 02:17:56 PM

Perhaps there will one day come a great doomsday Cult of Deflation that will attempt to hoard as many coins and possible, only to send them all to address with no known private key.

Perhaps this moment is upon us brethren. The return of the Anti-Satoshi: Craig Wright. The prophecy tells us that if Craig Wright be the Satoshi, in the attempt to move 1million coins, he makes a mistake and burns them all to an invalid address.

We can pray my brethren. For this would be the true sacrifice of Satoshi.

That's hilarious. I don't like this cult-ish approach tho, the mainstream could use it to attack us. We don't need approbation of satoshi or some other bitcoin celebrities to have our own opinions. We don't need satoshi to come back and tell us how to scale bitcoin up, for example.
