Title: Is Bitcoin a religion?
Post by: Domithra on March 29, 2018, 04:04:24 AM
Religious Belief Defined

    The term "religious" as used in IRC 501(c)(3) is not subject to precise definition. The leading interpretation of the term was made by the Supreme Court in United States v. Seeger, 380 U.S. 163 (1965), in which the Court interpreted the phrase
Quote
religious training and belief
as used in the Universal Military Training and Service Act, 50 U.S.C. section 456 (j), in determining an individual’s eligibility for exemption from military service on religious grounds. The Court formulated the following definition:
Quote
A sincere and meaningful belief which occupies in the life of its possessor a place parallel to that filled by the God of those admittedly qualifying for the exemption comes within the statutory definition.

    The Court elaborated upon the Seeger definition in Welsh v. United States, 398 U.S. 33 (1970), stating that
Quote
if an individual deeply and sincerely holds beliefs that are purely ethical or moral in source and content but that nevertheless impose upon him a duty of conscience to refrain from participating in any war at any time, those beliefs certainly occupy in the life of that individual a place parallel to that filled by... God in the lives of traditionally religious persons.
Thus, religious beliefs include many beliefs (for example, Taoism, Buddhism, and Secular Humanism) that do not posit the existence of a Supreme Being in the conventional sense.

Bitcoin is not a religion but a cryptocurrency in other words money. Our world works with money and the more money you have the more powerful you are to other people which have less and some people will do anything just to acquire more money, not minding the teaching of their religion and thus money becomes their religion.

If bitcoin is a religion, then what about the real money? Is it a religion too? Because from what I understand in your post once in second to the last paragraph, that if an individual deeply and sincerely believe, we can call it a religion, therefore money is also a religion.

In religion, you can turn anything and I think that there are people who have made Bitcoin the object of their worship, but this does not make Bitcoin an idol. The use of Bitcoin and its popularization can be called ideology, subculture, persuasion. Yes, Bitcoin has a philosophy that many people like and I also like his philosophy, but no more.

Bitcoin is a philosophy of freedom from the existing financial banking system, but I doubt that this can be called a religion. Many people who started using Bitcoin like it ease of use, high speed of translation and low cost compared to traditional ways of exchanging money. And also the complete absence of restrictions on the transfer amount.

Bitcoin is not religion. Bitcoin is all about crypto currency ,coins and token a form of electronic cash. It is a decentralized digital currency without a central bank or single administrator. It is a trusted investment  a long term investment.Religion is human beings' relation  regarded as holy, sacred, absolute, spiritual, divine, or worthy of especial reverence.

I never think bitcoin as a religion. It was created as a cryptocurrency, a so-called digital currency which is used as a mode of payment in some other countries. But now, already transformed as a form of investment. Bitcoin is all about earning money, not like religion which involves godly teachings or spiritual aspects.

It is a religion by its own definition of beliefs to pump the price again. Hold on and don't lose your hope. This is some of the basis why we think it is a religion. The practices seems inline with the practices of spiritual beliefs of actual religion. Bitcoin in general is not religion rather it is a business.

In my opinion, this question and statement is ridiculous. bitcoin is an investment in coins or digital currencies, not a religion. why is there a strange person who thinks bitcoin is a religion. sit down, and open the laptop then look for information about what bitcoin is on google so people have an open mind.

In my own opinion, Bitcoin is not a religion and cannot be called as one because it is only a cryptocurrency, a digital form of money which can be use as payment of commodities in other countries. Bitcoin can be a good source of other income and is all about making money especially now that it can be HODL as an investment. While religion is focusing only on your spiritual needs and involvement to God which is very far from bitcoin's purpose to human life.

No, bitcoin is not a religion since the believe held in bitcoin is not a religious believe. If you are willing to call bitcoin as a religion because of the believe people have in it, then we might as well call schools religion and almost every human endeavor a religion since they all operate with some level of believe.

While I think some people are religious about bitcoin, money, sports, or tv, those things are not religion in itself.  Religion tackles the meaning of life, with or without a central god.  If this term is thrown out, than everything and anything is religion, from frood and tv to playing sports and bitcoin.

Bitcoin is a means of payment. Why are you talking about religion? I think that is inappropriate.

Certainly, the Bitcoin is not a religion, it's just the term those who are working for Bitcoin. We must be able to distinguish it. So you have to keep thinking positive about Bitcoin.

Religious Belief Defined

    The term "religious" as used in IRC 501(c)(3) is not subject to precise definition. The leading interpretation of the term was made by the Supreme Court in United States v. Seeger, 380 U.S. 163 (1965), in which the Court interpreted the phrase
Quote
religious training and belief
as used in the Universal Military Training and Service Act, 50 U.S.C. section 456 (j), in determining an individual’s eligibility for exemption from military service on religious grounds. The Court formulated the following definition:
Quote
A sincere and meaningful belief which occupies in the life of its possessor a place parallel to that filled by the God of those admittedly qualifying for the exemption comes within the statutory definition.

    The Court elaborated upon the Seeger definition in Welsh v. United States, 398 U.S. 33 (1970), stating that
Quote
if an individual deeply and sincerely holds beliefs that are purely ethical or moral in source and content but that nevertheless impose upon him a duty of conscience to refrain from participating in any war at any time, those beliefs certainly occupy in the life of that individual a place parallel to that filled by... God in the lives of traditionally religious persons.
Thus, religious beliefs include many beliefs (for example, Taoism, Buddhism, and Secular Humanism) that do not posit the existence of a Supreme Being in the conventional sense.

I believe bitcoin did not engage in any religious activity and it is purely an investment, maybe for some they consider bitcoin as a supreme because of its expensive market value but we should not compare this to God or in any religion.

Crypto is not a religion, crypto is not god and I am not a servant, because crypto is only a currency and is not to be deified.

Bitcoin is a digital currency that can be used to make payments such as fiat money. But bitcoin uses decentralized technology so that it has a high level of security. Amazingly, transacting using bitcoin is easier, faster and cheaper than ordinary money.

I think Bitcoin is not a religion. but Bitcoin is about crypto currencies, coins and tokens that form electronic money. so bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency without a central bank or a single administrator. bitcoin can be an investment that is believed to be a long-term investment. but in my opinion Religion is a human relationship that is considered sacred, or spiritual, divine, which deserves special respect.

“In our secular culture, we have sort of replaced religion with capitalism or, rather, this rampant consumerism,” Liston told me. “0xΩ isn’t a direct critique of that, but I think it’s definitely a clear point to make.”

I personally don't consider Bitcoin as the religion. It is the cryptocurrency that is situated in the money spot. Our world is very big and the population is rising every day and with that kind of rise, there are also many new religions that people are creating on their own. Everything can be considered as a religion but just a few of this religions are accepted by the government. Few percent of the people believes that the money is the religion for them cause they have plenty of it and their minds have absorbed the thoughts about the newly created religion that are overwhelming their minds without the real facts...

Bitcoin is not a religion or a stream of beliefs. Bitcoin is a digital currency that is created for an easy, fast global payment system at a low cost. In addition, Bitcoin can be a profitable future investment in the future.

It will once we see regular activities, stable practices, rituals, songs, prayers and regular members meeting. As long as it doesn't happen bitcoin is still a decentralized digital currency, that's all.

I do not know what youa re talking about but I know bitcoin is an asset which has a certain value at a certain time. This value changes with the passage of time and we can take profit out of that change. I am in this business from a long time and I am earning well out of it.
