Jesus is the son of God. That is not anarchy. He is the Law. He fulfilled the Law of Moses.

We are not Jesus. We are not the Law. Anarchy is not ours.

There's no Caesar in the blockchain. Who do you render Bitcoins unto, other than by your own free will?

That was Tolstoy's conclusion too. Of course, they didn't have bitcoin then.

Here's a translation of his actual book: https://web.archive.org/web/20120205200941/http://www.kingdomnow.org/withinyou.html

I don't agree with all of it, but then, I have always been, in Max Weber's formulation, "religiously unmusical".

I quite enjoy Tolstoy. But if you want a real moral case for anarchy I found Larken Rose's "the most dangerous superstition" a compelling and easier read than Tolstoy. I still often think about that book and my faith.
