Hope this does help you understand a little bit about the importance of faith in things in other people's lives

What a cheap shot at wiki.


The "faith" he has declared in BC is based on a careful analysis of everything about it. I do not (and will not, anytime soon) hold any BitCoins, but even I can see that there is logic in the way it is designed to work. It could fail, as even Wiki has acknowledged, but if you cant see the value and potential of a decentralized monetary system free from government manipulation and regulation, you are in denial. His "faith" is in that concept - and it is a sound one that glorifies human choices, freedom and independence. We should all be be excited at the possibilities.

To equate that with someone's faith in their version of the invisible man in the sky, based on what mommy and daddy told them to believe, is disingenuous.
