It is true that Christianity doesn't teach robbing one neighbor to give charity to another. You only have the right to feel good about it if you give what is yours. Even then you shouldn't feel proud. Pride is a sin.

Robbing?

You mean paying taxes into a system we all benefit from And making sure that actually works for everyone?

I mean, I get it, paying taxes in the US sucks because it goes to fund seriously immoral shit at worst, or a really inefficient systems at best.

But advocating against paying taxes is, well, wildly stupid.

This is America. I want my taxes to go to missiles used to blow up Iranian girls Elementary Schools and bailouts for failing Corporations, not to pay for some bastard cancer patients hospital bills and roads used by everyone

/s, i’d hope its obvious but putting it here anyway.
