Not crazy unpopular, but unpopular with some people so I'm gonna say it.

Bitcoin is not salvation, a deity, the most moral cause in the world, etc. I feel like so many people, especially on Bitcoin twitter have inadvertently made Bitcoin an almost cult-like group, which although supporting a good technology and cause, creates a dangerous atmosphere around BTC that drives people away instead of bringing them in.

I came to Bitcoin in spite of all the slogans of "Bitcoin or slavery", ∞/21M, etc. Although they are in the distinct minority, I have heard several prominant Bitcoiners refer to Bitcoin as a new world relgion that will overtake all "impure" ideologies. I almost didn't start using Bitcoin because insanity like this made me less sure about it's actual usefulness.

Most Bitcoiners I've talked to seem to see Bitcoin in a reasonable light, where it is a technology and movement that can help the world in political and economic ways. Yet, too many people seem to almost worship Bitcoin like a god, rather than a protocol. Bitcoin is not God.

Bitcoin will not save you, and being pro-Bitcoin does not make you in any way more moral than a regular person who uses fiat, or even most bankers at that. This is not a jihad, it is a political movement. God has said that idol worship is a sin, and that He looks on the heart rather than the exterior. He will care about how you have lived and treated your brothers and sisters. I don't think He will care if you supported Bitcoin or not, but He will if you used it as an idol upon which you could belittle your brothers and sisters.

We shouldn't level judgement at people who choose to worship Bitcoin, yet a warning is in order. If you care about being a good person, about actually helping the cause of Bitcoin, and about your eternal salvation, please don't make Bitcoin a deity.

I'm not here to fight you guys. I'm just trying to warn and love.
