Matthew:15 Then the Pharisees went out and laid plans to trap him in his words. 16 They sent their disciples to him along with the Herodians. “Teacher,” they said, “we know that you are a man of integrity and that you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. You aren’t swayed by others, because you pay no attention to who they are. 17 Tell us then, what is your opinion? Is it right to pay the imperial tax to Caesar or not?”
18 But Jesus, knowing their evil intent, said, “You hypocrites, why are you trying to trap me? 19 Show me the coin used for paying the tax.” They brought him a denarius, 20 and he asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?”
21 “Caesar’s,” they replied.
Then he said to them, “So give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”
22 When they heard this, they were amazed. So they left him and went away.

I will not respond again, since you are an obvious hypocritical attention whore! I know in whom I believe... and it ain’t you, nor Romney. BUT, he has my vote!!
And your citation of Matthew 15 as it applies to what I said to you that you have declared hypocrisy, is applicable HOW?
I’m eager with anticipation to hear how the verses you cited apply to what I said to you.
Please enlighten me that I may understand someone who says they do not believe me (when I’m referencing the bible), nor do you believe Romney - but you are voting for him because you assert he somehow is the future for your grandkids.
I like the fact you do not believe me, because if you are truly a Christian - you should double check what is said with scripture and do the Berean thing.
How is it then, you are so eager and willing to believe what Romney says rather than examine his record as a good Berean would do? How does that square with applying and living in accord with the faith you claim to have?
Is Romney’s face on our coinage? Are your principles stamped with his image or inscribed with his words?
How then does rendering to Caesar fit in this discussion?
