Give unto god what is gods. Render unto caesar was a statement made under duress. The key is that caesar is not entitled to the property of others and theft is already clearly stated as a sin.

Tax is simply a specific form of theft. Tax, fraud, burglary, mugging, pickpocketing, are all just variations of theft. Which is expressly and unambiguously forbidden by god.

The west is successful, not because it is most smart. Asians and jews are smarter. Rather the west is the best because it physically implemented the will of god on earth. God commands property rights. Property rights are civilization itself. Science is a by product of civilization. Though many jews would theorize that intellect and science give rise to civilization. This is incorrect.

As the West loses god. So too will it loose civilization.

Every violation of gods will creates only hate. Our women hate us because they steal from us. When they existed by depending on us as willing providers instead of men in bondage they love us.

That is the difference between following the will of god and following that path of lucifer. Christianity if it does not return to the commandments set forth by heaven will perish and wither as is gods will.

Under duress or not, it is the word of God. Since He could not lie, it stands that the command to pay the taxes demanded by the government are valid. Paul make special note that the government is allowed by God to provide for the needs of the people in Romans 13 and Peter says something similar in 2 Peter. The early Christian view of government is that is was generally a force for good that could be made better by Christians.

A commandment from god to Moses cannot be contradicted by anyone.

Jesus merely clarified their interpretation.

No other human past or present has the authority to make any contradiction. Doing so is expressly forbidden. Jesus and moses are the word of god. Final, absolute and unquestionable.

Accept them. People should give charity freely and are commanded to give it.

Justifying theft in the name of god. Is perhaps one of the most horrendous things a person can do. It is wrong that so called christians would even attempt such a thing, Religious leaders peddling such notions are trying to line their own pocket. This was also criticised by Jesus and one of his biggest disappointments in organized religion

It is impossible to be both christian and left wing.
