I have very great trust and belief in bitshares.
I just hope it's not being marketed it as a Christian/biblical project. I think it's so much more than that.
It's a chance to connect and help each other in ways that were more difficult before.
I know Christianity is mainstream in most American countries but in Europe and most of the continents you mention, it drives a lot of us away.
At least in Europe, Christianity has been misused to fight countless wars and left us with a fear of anything remotely religious, even meditation.
To me bitshares is about peace, simplicity and prosperity, which I think all religious (and non-religious like me) can agree on and work together to promote.
Does it make sense?
Christianity is not the same as bad people claiming to be Christian.
Christianity is like pennicilin. Should I not tell people about the cure?
And why is it I can't quote wisdom from any source? What is it about a quote from the Bible that has to be kept out of secular discussions when anything else goes... in the name of tolerance?
The way I know Christianity is true is that it is the only belief system that is shouted down.
Ever notice that?
All I'm saying is that there are not too many high quality posts about bitshares at the moment. So I always try to read from people like you who have been there from the beginning and who have much greater insight than me.
And i know bitshares is decentralized so no single person can lead it. But to People like me who are new to bitshares you are a sort of spiritual leader based on your knowledge and experience with bts.
In Europe I would say that the religions that are most shouted down and ridiculed are Islam, Judaism, Buddhism and then Christianity as a distant 4th. That doesn't make any of them more true than others, and there is probably good inspiration to be found in any philosophy.
I think everyone is free to quote whatever inspires them. I was just commenting on calling bitshares: "The Biblically Jeffersonian Blockchain".
That being the godfather of bitshares and calling it a biblical blockchain can drive people away from the project.
Anyway, it's just one opinion. Keep up the good work promoting bts.
