Jeseus said to render unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s;he did not tell the people to stop work and live on the dole.And the Romans worshipped false goda and made sacrifices of humans.

One of us must be missing a point.

I believe we are supposed to follow God’s laws as best we can but pointless self-flagellation and sacrifice benefits the unborn how?

A far more worthy sacrifice would be giving a loving home and raising a child that would have been aborted.

If you have nothing to render unto Caesar, Jesus didn't say to work for Caesar so you could render. In fact he said to follow HIM, shed all and follow Him.

And I never suggested living on the dole. I don't pay income tax and I'm not on the dole.

I believe we are supposed to follow God’s laws as best we can but pointless self-flagellation and sacrifice benefits the unborn how?

Pointless what?? First of all I didn't suggest "self-flagellation," so please don't mischaracterize my argument. Secondly, depriving the government of the revenue to fund abortion is not pointless.

I can only imagine what you'd have advised Christian martyrs who readily DIED for the faith.

I'm not asking anyone to die or break laws. I'm saying, change the government by the only possible non-violent means: stop sending it your money. If enough people did that, abortion would end fast. That is the POINT you are striving to miss.

There is no more effective protest and correction of the godless government than to refuse to fund it.
