This is exactly the kind of thing Jesus Christ would adore.

Something Supply Side Jesus would endorse for sure.

Me pulling out my phone at church on sunday because I have to do my gacha game style Bible dailies. Can't miss a day or my $8.99 a month battle pass will go to waste

Crusader Pass

He told Gizmodo he was surprised when he first got into Bitcoin in 2020 to find what he described as “a rich, vibrant community of Christian Bitcoiners,” and said the success of his self-published book, which he says has sold more than 10,000 copies over the past three years, only reinforced his sense that the overlap was real.

This should come as no surprise. People who are willing and able to have faith in things without any quantifiable evidence are going to be easy to draw into scams.

Exactly as Jesus preached.

We can make a religion out of this.

Oh wait, they just did.

That’s what you get when the Silicon Valley “Californian Ideology” is replaced by the Texan Ideology inherited from oilmen and slaveholders.

Jesus Cash!

Pretty sure Jesus would beat the shit out of all who's involved in this with a very pliable switch (hint: not the console).

OP, thank you for the topic!

I made my YT video on this today, for funsies. (TW: It is sarcastic about religion.)

Much appreciated!

Are we offering trigger warning to protect the delicate sensibilities of Christians now?

If you can't handle someone being sarcastic about your religion, perhaps it's time to reconsider your belief system.

God is all about the bitcoin.

[-] MrSulu@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 weeks ago

Someone's definitely going to make a device or app to allow collection of buffoon from this.

[-] CompactFlax@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 weeks ago

the currency’s fixed, verifiable rules confront users with what he sees as objective truth in a world of “fake money, fake food, fake news, fake everything.” In his view, Bitcoin is not merely adjacent to Christian culture but fundamentally based on its values.

Conservatives just can’t comprehend a world in colour. Or even greyscale.

[-] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago

They can't comprehend that the fake money was created by them, is run by them, and says "in God we trust" on it. They had the world's reserve currency already! And now they're blowing it.

I read World of Goo at first and got sad that the old 2008 phone game had fallen so far

[-] Griffus@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago

Anti Jesus world views is peak USian conservative, but they crossed a line in the 70’s and should just stop their double moraled shit now.
