Christian Nationalism is bad though. I mean mutilating children is also bad, anyone who supports circumcision has a wild and poor understanding of the scripture.
Why should Christians be against Christian nationalists? If you oppose the idea of Islamic theocracies then why be such a hypocrite? The idea of nation is a spiritual one. Jesus did not force his religion onto others, he showed them the light through reason, compassion, and sacrifice.
We were built on the idea of the separation of Church and State. (Even though it was never fully realized. But I hope it will be one day.) The American value that all men are created equal is not just a spiritual one but a moral one separate from ones religion. The many people who convert to Christianity do so because of the accepting Christians who do not persecute those of other beliefs. And I often feel those who are shamed or bullied into Christianity, or out of fear of damnation learn and read the scriptures for all the wrong reasons.
why can't leaders be christian and support their own values? democratically elected leaders who advocate christian values in media and law? this would all be through the regular processes -- nothing unamerican about this.
in this state it would be exactly the same, except instead of compete degeneracy being advocated in media and society, christian values would be the normal from the top down. i.e. leaders and figures would heavily support christian values at all levels
this is what a form of christian nationalism is
nobody said necessarily anything about persecuting those of other religions or something
in what way is separation of church and state violated here?
