      If God sent him NFTs instead of stone tablets then we could actually cryptographically verify that they were from God 🤔

        I guess you could try but chances are these NFTs have some virus-like applet that activate once you attempt anything with them.

          If God was truly omnipotent then he would have made a “believe in Jesus and get saved” rootkit and installed it on everyone. Checkmate Christians!

        If God sent him NFTs the Ten Commandments would have actually been the same ten and not eleven once he destroyed the first ones 🤔

      It always got me how people criticise mormons’ Joseph Smith for lacking evidence of the Lord’s writing but when someone asks why Moses “rewrote” the commandments instead of showing the original tablets it is blasphemy.

        Those NFTs are tithing 8.0, to be fair lol

        1- Sacrificing your own workforce to the priest-king of Sumer or Ur, or Enki won’t make it rain. Or the king priest will demand your head if you are smart enough.

        2- Sacrificing your own first born child to El, Yahweh, Ba’al, Moleck, or whatever patron god from the Semitic Pantheon. Or the plague will come. Or the Priests will pressure the governor until they get your head if you are smart enough.

        3- Sacrificing cattle and food and killing rival priests for Yahweh now the only legal god. Or Yahweh will let Babylonians again to conquer your house. Or the higher priest, cousin of the King of Israel will demand your head if you are smaet enough.

        4- Tithing for Jesus. Or you will go to Hell. Or the roman prefector will cross you because the Head Priest called you Unorthodox Atheist if you are smart enough. (This also applies to any Christian dominion until WWII ended…if you were lucky).

        4.5 (DLC) repeat the same as 3/4 but in the name of Allah and the Arabian equivalent of the current ruling empire.

        5- Giving “volunteer” money and force to the sect you were born into or capted in… Or you die in Armageddon, or get to Hell. Or you are ostracized being called a satanic apostate witch/wizard to starvation if you are smart enough.

        6- Now it’s on credit card! (repeat second options from 5)

        7- Now it’s with the Internet! (repeat second options from 5)

        8- Now it’s blockchain! (repeat second options from 5)

      Maybe he just didn’t have enough in his wallet to cover minting
