[QUOTE="rjs330, post: 74386551, member: 377008"] It doesn't. I don't think it is theft. Theft is gaining unauthorized control of someone's property. We have representative government. Therefore it's not theft. We have taxation with representation. What I'm pointing out is that the Bible does not authorize us as believers to demand that money be taken from some and given to others as a Biblical mandate. It's patently false. Now if you want to argue policy and whether or not it's a good idea or good policy to take people's money and give it to others then we can have that discussion. But leave scripture out of it.
