Yes! I have been thinking exactly the same thing! The debate between the different factions in Bitcoin is indeed much like the faiths splitting in two. We're seeing the digital equivalent of Catholics vs Protestants right now!
I guess they're all subdivisions of the Bitcoin Faith, which is in itself a subdivision of the Cryptocurrency Faith (although this may be debated by members of the Bitcoin Faith who believe their Bitcoin is the one True Crypto). We even have a mysterious Messiah in Satoshi Nakamoto to go along with it... and everybody is already debating on the 'true meaning' of Nakamoto's whitepaper..
How long before the first person gets killed over this debate??
people get killed for money all the time.

Question is who is will be the first martyr saint for Bitcoin ?
Well, Satoshi himself of course! There's plenty of stories going around saying that secret government agencies got to him!
Yes, for a guy more dangerous than Al Queda or ISIL, if he still alive , the US government would have him in Gitmo
