It's time for the annual reminder: 

October 31st, 1517 Martin Luther nailed his "whitepaper," the 95 Theses, to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg Germany, sparking the #Protestant #Reformation.

October 31st, 2008 Satoshi Nakamoto released the #Bitcoin Whitepaper to the Cryptography Mailing List, sparking a movement toward sound, independent money in the digital age.

The first date marks the beginning of the separation of church and state, and the second marks the beginning of the separation of money and state. 
 I've been listening to several "Renewing Your Mind" podcasts about Martin Luther lately.  It was started by R.C. Sproul, who has passed away.  I can't remember if he was the one doing the podcasts, but they were very good. 
 So cool it’s the same day lol 
 New to BTC, but not the Reformation.  Posting the 95 Theses is my annual Halloween Decoration.  Kids wants candy, fine, but ya gonna get some knowledge bombs dropped, too.  Maybe I need to put the White Paper up, each year, too?
