    Are suggesting that people who live in relative poverty and who are taxed at lower rates are not "sharing the pain" and that taxation results in "harm" and not "good"?

    Start another thread in a different place than Spirituality if you want to
    discuss my views on taxes. I've shared them before I imagine more than
    one person here could tell you what I'd say.

    Well, no. You raised taxation as an example of "evil" on your own thread about "Who is an antichrist" so I have just one last question. If progressive taxation is "unfair" and therefore "evil", does it mean that you think progressive taxation is "sinful"?

    I did, selfishness, but if you want to turn this into a discussion on what
    a good tax policy would be, that does not belong here.

    Start another thread.

    No idea what you would say because you
    continually contradicted yourself in that discussion.

    I daresay the "selfishness" is embodied by the billionaires who pay people exorbitant sums to keep from paying their fair share. And all of them propose that poor people pay more tax, through a "flat tax" or other means. This is selfish and disgusting.

    You jumped on me for bringing up political matters in the Spirituality Forum and I took it to another Forum. May I do you the same favor and suggest you take it to either General or Debates?

    I don't want to turn this into a discussion on what a good tax policy would be. I am interested in your assertion that progressive taxation is "evil" and perhaps how opinions about taxation might help you to identify "an antichrist". Which Biblical passage do you have in mind to back your claim?

    Is KellyJay's attitude to taxation "sinful"?
