lol that's so true! when I was going to a catholic elementary school at christmas we'd sing this one song and one of the lyrics is "and the government shall be upon his shoulder" and I always thought "what? Jesus thinks that just because he's the son of God he's above the government or something??" lol he DID choose to be a person, so he HAD to fallow human rules!!!

He didn't choose that.
What you think it wen't down like this?

Jebus: "Hey dad, I want to be a person and walk the earth."
God: "Why?"
Jebus: "Cause it would be fun?"
God: "Nah, I'll tell you whats fun. The Holy Ghost going down there, getting his game on with a virgin named mary, then you will pop out...die for the sins of the human race without anyone asking for it, so they will be in out debt forever! How's that sound?"
Jebus: "Wait, I gotta die?"
God: "Well yeah, you're not me you know. The best part, you're going to be nailed on a peice of wood. Groovy?"

Jebus: "No, not at all. I take back what I said."
God: "Too late! Holy Spirit AWAY!"

I think that closest thing to 'Christian Anarchism' can be found in Thoreau's and Emerson's Trascendentalism pieces 'Civil Disobedience', 'Walden', etc.

Neither of them were Christians, nor anarchists(this ones a bit more arguable). But the thing I posted is directly and overtly Christian Anarchists. You should really read it then post, rather than making a comment that is incorrect.
