I think perhaps you guys are talking about two different things? Abrahamic principles v Abrahamic Institutions.

Abrahamic institutions are amongst the biggest beneficiaries of the fiat system, because they take advantages to levels that no other organisation gets. It’s not even a hidden or controversial thing that Abrahamic institutions

- rely on tax breaks and exemptions

- rely on taxpayer funding via the state

- rely on inflation

- very strong political alliances

- very strong hierarchy and emphasis on obedience to authority

- highly centralised leadership

- partner with banks on fractional reserve principles

- rely and benefit on systems of debt creation

- amongst the largest asset holders on the planet because they seek to benefit from inflation

- prioritise institutional growth over economic reform

- maintain strict control of their financial opacity

BUT the religious texts themselves encourage some very btc aligned values

- truth

- integrity

- accountability

- confronting injustice

- distributed community responsibility

- critiques of hoarding and exploitation of the vulnerable

- transparency

- warnings against concentration of power

- condemnation of exploitative lending or prohibition of interest based systems

- emphasis on fairness and condemnation of debasement

So I think maybe you’re both right. And I’d add that hopefully, something like btc can make an institution actually start employing the values that it teaches.
