RE: What Should We Call The Stable Unit of Value That John Nash Created?
Preamble:
- Note to readers other than @jokerpravis - This comment is about one of his other posts.
- @jokerpravis Please forgive me, I'm doing some gymnastics since steemit has made it challenging for me to do what I want to do. This comment is actually about this post, but it is more than a month old, so I can't comment on it there.
True Comment:
Convincing everyone that anything is 100% true is almost impossible. Take Solomon -- God gave him the wisdom to know which woman was the true mother of the living child, but there is no way that Solomon could prove that to everyone (I know you can imagine the comments if reddit were around back then).
Example Proofs:
The following proofs are strong, but still require faith.
| Craig Wright is Satoshi. | Jesus is God. |
|---|---|
| 1. Craig claimed to be Satoshi. | 1. Jesus claimed to be God. |
| 2. Craig proves he is Satoshi to those who know and respect him. | 2. Jesus proves he is God to those who know and love him. |
| 3. Even under immense pressure, and risk to reputation, Gavin still holds that Craig is Satoshi. | 3. Even under immense pressure, and risk to life, the remaining 11 disciples hold that Jesus is God. |
| 4. Knowing the truth, Gavin lives according to what he believes Craig would want. | 4. Knowing the truth, the disciples live according to what they know Jesus wants. |
| 5. Risking his reputation for no tangible gain, Andrew O'Hagan writes an orderly account of the key events surrounding Craig as Satoshi. | 5. Risking his life for no tangible gain, Luke the Physician writes an orderly account of the key events surrounding Jesus as God. |
Final Thoughts:
Before anyone accuses me of comparing Craig to Jesus, let me say the following:
- I'm on record with my wife as saying that the only thing more earth shaking than Bitcoin is what Jesus did on the cross.
- Even Craig is humble enough to recognize that some things are more important than bitcoin, whereas nothing was more important to Jesus than to do the will of his Father: to rescue us from Hell by dying on the cross -- paying a debt in full which we could never even begin to pay in part.
- I fully believe that Craig is Satoshi just as I fully believe that Jesus is God. Everything points to the truth of both of these claims, but for anyone to believe, they require a leap of faith -- Something which not everyone is enabled to do.
