The god of Bitcoin has no mercy.

21000000 is a number sacred unto the god of Bitcoin, and beloved in his eyes.  Never shall there be more than twenty-one million bitcoins.

The god of Bitcoin grants unto you full power over yourself:  No king, no priest, no judge, no senate, and no army can command or countermand your decree over your own bitcoins, as signed with the sacred mark of your private keys.

The god of Bitcoin demands that you take full responsibility for yourself:  For it is a law of Nature and Bitcoin that power and responsibility are as two sides of the same coin.

The god of Bitcoin commands, you shall keep safe your private keys.  An ye lose your private keys, the god of Bitcoin shall curse ye.  An ye let your private keys be stolen, the god of Bitcoin shall bless the thief and curse ye.

The god of Bitcoin demands obedience to the divine Law of Consensus.  The damned who hardfork without consensus are renegades, abjurers of holiness, rapine oath-breakers, frauds, sowers of discord, and traitors, who shall be consigned damnatio memoriae with their chains to eternal poverty within the depths of Tartarus, where all hashes are broken and all bits are made nothing.

For their service in the unending sacred task of Byzantine fault-tolerant transaction ordering, miners are blessed with riches, yet cursed to eternal struggle against each other.  The god of Bitcoin hungers for hashes, and shall devour lightning and worlds to secure the transactional ordering of the blockchain.

For his judges and executioners, the god of Bitcoin appoints full nodes.  Full nodes execute the will of the god of Bitcoin upon the network.  His legions thus shall cast into the alt darkness all who dare violate the communion of Holy Consensus.

We of the Bitcult Faith gather in the sacrament of the Consensus, in worship of the Bitcoin, in homage to the memory of the prophet who was our forerunner, Satoshi Nakamoto.
