"Jesus told us to steal from the poor."
Almost makes me wish heresy was still a thing. =/
It's certainly misrepresentation of a business.
Don't worry, this guy admitted to everything, seeing how "God told me to" isn't a legal defense. God really told you to spend "thousands on home renovations"? Super cool bro
Supply side Jesus strikes again.
Oh! OH! The clouds are parting. A beam of light shining down on me. AH! A voice. It calls out to me! It says.... It says you all owe me 200 bucks.
I'll send you your 200 deer. Good luck to you.
Best I can do is 200 rabid wolves.
Hearing voices is called schizophrenia
TIL my internal monologue is schizophrenia
"We took God at his word and sold a cryptocurrency with no clear exit," Regalado in his video address Friday.
Bahaha. Not only did god tell them to do it, but he might have misled them a little bit about the profitability of the venture. Bad god, bad.
He's not the messiah. He's a very naughty boy!
The lord told the defense attorney to prosecute you, so it balances out.
"I'm playing both sides so that no matter what, I come out on top." - God, probably
Once again proving that the only problem crypto truly solves is that it was too difficult to efficiently scam people before. 😂
I think it's time that we church taxes. Literally everyone else has to.
And if the taxes refuse, then what?
Shut them down
I think most taxes would rather be shut down than churched.
Then we could temple or mosque them.
Non-profits don't have to. Which is what churches are legally classified as and required to adhere to.
Churches are for-prophet though
Nice
Evangelicals
In Satoshi We Trust
My gods tell me to do a lot of stuff. But y'all still got all your blood, don't ya?
Sometimes they're not commandments, just suggestions.
Bad suggestions.
I didn't know it was a valid excuse, BRB.
Is this the wrong spot to announce my ICO?
So are people just going to be duped by crypto scams for the rest of eternity? How many times does this have to happen before people just stop buying random crypto created by shady people?
Because someone wins. They all know the game is rigged, but the point is to fly as close to the sun without melting your wings. They know that the white paper holders are planning to scam the rubes, you just need to duck out before the rug pull. Can’t believe the leopard ate their face
No one wins in crypto scams. Except the people that create them. That's why they're scams and not just "bad investments".
The ~~Devil~~ Lord made me do it.
God told me to skin you alive.
When churchmen confess their churches are organized crime syndicates
Jesus told me there's a free spot on the crucifix for this scammer.
The Lord would not tell you that.
I'm pretty sure if Jesus was still here he would condemn crypto the same way he condemn those ancient bankers.
Jesus didn't "condemn ancient bankers," he booted money chargers from the temple. He wasn't railing against capitalism, he was against people using what was meant to be a place of worship, for those purposes.
There's nothing inherently different about crypto that Jesus would have been against compared to fiat currency. It's not like cash scams don't exist.
Not that it matters since it's all bullshit anyway.
