Episode Details

Alin "PastorCoin" Armstrong joins me to explain why "You shall not steal" is God's monetary policy, and how Bitcoin aligns with sowing & reaping, truth, and loving your neighbor. We discuss:

• Is Bitcoin a religious cult?
• Divine fiat (Creation) and carnal fiat (money printing)
• Bitcoin's link to time & energy makes it truthful and hard to corrupt
• Why many discover faith after discovering objective truth in Bitcoin
• Practical ways to introduce Bitcoin to Christians and skeptics (books, study groups)
