I believe,
the original statement was, is it correct for the
government to forcibly take from some people to
give to other people?

And the answer to that question has got to be 'NO!'.

Ask "Should we help the needy and less fortunate
amongst us?" And the answer is 'Yes'.

The problem lies in the fact that if the government
has the authority to take from these people and give
to those people . . . invariably it takes from
everybody and enriches the already rich.

One last question . . .
Should I take the food out of my childrens mouths to
feed someone who is hungry . . . if that someone can't
be bothered to do anything to feed himself?

Matthew seven, verse one states: judge not lest you be judged.

When you pick certain people over other people for help, you are passing judgement.

As far as your pronouncement about strangers, in Luke ten, twenty five through thirty seven--the story of the good samaritan--he helped a total stranger.

As far as your pronouncement about taxes, in Luke 21, 1-4, the story of the widows mite. Jesus blessed her because she gave all that she could while so many wealthy gave only what they had to.

As far as your bullshit generally. see Matthew 25, 31-46.
