First off, congrats on the hard work and incredible progress you guys have made. I'd just comment that you responding to this, along with a YC partner, only adds credibility to the story. If its BS, it should be totally ignored. The fact that both of you took time to attempt to discredit an article from a blog would make one question why you feel the need to do so. Interestingly I got down-voted on this comment too.. Ironic because I am generally impressed with and love Stripe and its story. Just sayin' to not take an outlet like Pando too seriously.

So, when scientist take the time to point out why creationism is wrong it means that they believe creationism is correct? I call bullshit on you.

  You make a good analogy but in my personal opinion, stretch it too far. The greatest scientists don't get caught up in squabbles about creationism with fools - they simply let their work prove it wrong. They are too busy to engage in petty debates with a blog. Why should founders of a billion dollar company care what a blog says? Now if it were a regulatory institution or a credible news organization that investors take seriously/Stripe was publicly traded, then its a different matter because media perception would have a material impact on the business. Debating Pando does no benefit for them, so it makes one wonder why they engaged.
