Hey Alan! Stay tuned to Once Bitten. My 3rd appearance on that show is in the pipeline to be published right now. I know you like Christianity too, not just Zen Buddhism and Alan Watts stuff so it will be of interest to you. In it I cover ancient Egyptian and Greek initiation rituals including the origins of two Christian "sacraments": baptism and the eucharist/communion. One is Egyptian. The other is Greek. Both were adopted by Christ and incorporated into Christianity, however, over time, the rituals became distorted until they were merely a shell of the original versions.

Bitcoin is a Protocol. Period.
