Does Jesus want us to be patriotic?

I don't think he does. For example, when he says "pay unto ceaser..." I think that's a dog whistle basically saying "the kingdom of heaven makes your petty concerns of state and country seem irrelevant"

I dunno, what do you think?

I think that Christians should be much more focused on the Kingdom of Heaven than the kingdoms of mankind. Worshipping Caesar is an ancient idol that can be found to be worshipped all the way back in the time of Hammurabi.
