Here's my understanding of this passage, and why I believe it's different from "Render unto Caesar":
This was the Temple tax that God commanded to be paid under the Law of Moses. Exodus 30:13 stated: "Each one who is numbered in the census shall give this: half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary (the shekel is twenty gerahs), half a shekel as an offering to the Lord." Peter found a whole shekel in the fish's mouth which was enough for his payment and Jesus'.
This was not a payment to Caesar, i.e. the government, but to God, for the upkeep of the house of God. Jesus' question "From whom do kings of the earth take toll or tax? From their sons or from others?” is interesting because He was actually making the point that as God's Son, He was exempt from this tax. However, He paid it on this occasion to not give offense.
So this incident does not indicate that taxes should be paid to the government, but does show that sometimes it might be expedient to pay a tax.

This first episode had me wondering what lemonade stands turn into multi generational businesses because they:
1) built on Nostr
2) monetized in novel ways

Confusion is a Tool of Control
Progress can be a double-edged sword: while the West has seen extraordinary leaps in technology and intellectual thought, powerful forces also work tirelessly to mold our perception of right and wrong. They weaken our sense of self-reliance and fracture the foundations of moral certainty; foundations that many believe are “written on men’s hearts” and traced back through time-tested ethics.
It’s not about vilifying any community; rather, it’s about recognizing how easily moral debates can be manipulated by those seeking to suppress productive individuals. When conflicting agendas sow confusion, we begin to doubt our own judgment. Even open dialogue becomes risky. We tiptoe around pressing issues, censor our questions, and in the end, allow our voice -- and influence -- to be muzzled.
Such disorientation benefits those who profit from a demoralized and fragmented society. Conflicted minds are easier to overtax, fearful of assembling around common goals, less trusting of their neighbor and community, and less likely to question top-heavy governance. Meanwhile, the productive shoulder the burden, unsure if they can speak openly, uncertain if their values hold any ground in the modern moral landscape.
But it’s not too late to remember the deep-rooted principles that once served as guideposts -- principles that offer clarity and a stable compass. Reaffirming these ethical anchors doesn’t mean condemning any individual or group, since we all have sinned; it means standing firm against confusion being weaponized. Only by keeping sight of enduring truths can we protect individual liberty, prevent exploitation, and secure the genuine progress we hope to pass on to the next generation.

What most academics seem to miss is that, for Marx, 'alienation' was not so much a psychological diagnosis as a metaphysical one. It frames his anthropology, but also (and, I think, more importantly) his _eschatology_.
Rothbard saw this. Lindsay sees this. Too few others--including Trueman--seem to see it.

Their last words were: “Jesus, I love you.”
Remember, no one marched for them.

> “When they came to Capernaum, the collectors of the two-drachma tax went up to Peter and said, “Does your teacher not pay the tax?” He said, “Yes.” And when he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him first, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do kings of the earth take toll or tax? From their sons or from others?” And when he said, “From others,” Jesus said to him, “Then the sons are free. However, not to give offense to them, go to the sea and cast a hook and take the first fish that comes up, and when you open its mouth you will find a shekel. Take that and give it to them for me and for yourself.”
–Matthew 17:24–27 (ESV)
This other version you refer to was actually a different occasion and a different kind of tax.

🚨🇺🇸AMERICA’S BABY BUST— BIRTHRATES WORSE THAN EXPECTED
New CDC data shows U.S. birth rates are crashing, with some states seeing a 30%+ drop since 2005:
• Utah: -33.9% | Arizona: -31.9% | Delaware: -31.2%
• Even big-family states like Idaho (-26%) and Colorado (-26%) aren’t keeping up.
Fewer births = fewer workers, more retirees, and a Social Security time bomb.
Japan’s already there—is the U.S. next?
At this rate, robots and overworked 80-year-olds will be holding the economy together.
