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.
