I have gut feeling OP use chatbot to generate this thread. Anyway, i think bringing multiple religious/spiritual doctrines into discussion about Bitcoin development wouldn't end up well due to various reasons.

I think that if you’re in Bitcoin, you actually promote freedom technology.

There goes a lot into Bitcoin philosophically. This combined with, mythological, theological and spiritual views from all core maintainers and contributors involved in the choices made for Bitcoin’s trajectory.

It is actually very eye-opening when it is openly discussed.

And no.

I’m not a chatbot hahaha. Just here to help out ethically.

I've followed some discussion among Bitcoin developer and contributor, but i never see anyone bring religion or spiritual doctrines. At most, i only remember certain pool put religious quote on block header/coinbase TX which happened long time ago where it's already resolved.

I know that there are some Roman Catholics part of Bitcoin core.

I tried to speak with LukeDash Jr. about his current mindset regarding morals and values and his Roman Catholic background but was met with a block on twitter.

Maybe because I also asked him about an old quote that I found that was pretty suspect in regards to racist and sinful ways. A quote that could suggest Luke still has issues with racist or sinful behaviour patterns.

Was just curious.

Openness about these behavioural patterns could help a lot of development teams. But I think for Bitcoin it could make a real difference.

In my opinion, this is not a very mature way out of the situation, a block instead of a dialogue

Agreed.

At the same time,

Luke and other core devs are definitely not obligated to answer any questions regarding their (religious) world view or behavioural patterns they ‘could’ struggle with right.

It is a very personal thing for most people.

But core contributors and maintainers speaking about it openly would help the community hugely to understand the ethical vision and thought processes of those involved with Bitcoin’s governance and development upgrades.
