Main purpose here: to amplify voices that expose and counter the twin evils of #ChristianNationalism and white supremacy, to strive for religious liberty for all, and defend pluralism in America. https://www.christiansagainstchristiannationalism.org
Doug Wilson speaking at the Pentagon is as clear a proof as any that this Administration wants to bring about a neo-confederate Christian nationalist government. Think Republic of Gilead level high control religion, led by people who self-appoint the right to take away your rights.
For those looking for a good synopsis of Christian Nationalism, here is a good video worth watching.

The white supremacy goes back much farther than that - to the colonies in the 1600's. This journal article might interest you.

Changes like these hurt both the integrity of our government and the integrity of the faith. In any power structure, compliance motivated by fear is not action out of genuine agreement. People will be doing Christiany things with no Christ in their hearts. This will inevitably lead towards contempt.
For Christian Nationalists, ending the separation of church and state is not a bug, it's a feature. And if that happens, the "First they came for..." poem will become reality in every way.
Remember, the Puritan Massachusetts Bay colony persecuted Baptists!
They will bring an American Inquisition.
Donroe Doctrine = government by organized mob.
Time to revive the word Jingoism.
The Donroe Doctrine is the modern day equivalent of King Ahab coveting Naboth's vineyard. (1 Kings 21)
Stealing Latin America's resources under any pretext is still stealing. And today's prophets will likewise say to this administration "you have sold yourself to do evil in the eyes of the Lord."
That's billions of dollars that will go into the pockets of Trump and his cronies.
Power corrupts.
Absolutely power corrupts absolutely.
And an already corrupt powerful man given power leads to national disaster.
Power corrupts, and
"plenary authority" corrupts absolutely.
Presidential immunity, unitary executive, plenary authority are all ways of saying he's a "mad king".
Never forget. 🇺🇸
"Plenary authority"
The doctrine that Steven Miller said out loud which explains everything about the presidents mad-king actions including his disregard for needs of average Americans and his threats of war on six countries.
Power corrupts.
Plenary authority corrupts absolutely!
Power corrupts.
Plenary authority corrupts absolutely!
Power corrupts. Plenary authority corrupts absolutely!
Power corrupts. Plenary authority corrupts absolutely!
The US moral failure is every but as egregious as at Abu Ghraib.
Maga isn't Christianity. It's christian nationalism. It's rooted in racism, bigotry, and misogyny wrapped in a very thin veneer of religiosity to give it some moral authority. It has nothing to do with the teachings of Jesus.
Project 2025 white Christian nationalism on full display
Wow: Overt, unapologetic Christian nationalism from the Vice President here.
Even Trump has stopped short of saying something this explicit on the topic while President.
It was aggravated moral degeneracy at Abu Ghraib and it is again here.
We are fast reaching this point.
Jesus does not belong to one nation or race. He does not love or prefer one over the others. He loves all and is for all. He is alive to bring life to all.
Christian nationalism holds that he is on the side of American Republicans. Those who believe that don't know him.
Yeah that's a gambit he's playing. He's used that kind umpteen times before in his many litigations. I think it may not work this time.
I don't care if they do expand the scope of searching for pedophiles, and in fact I hope they do. Justice should be served. And the orange lecher must not be protected from it.
Great list. More ideas...
+ Make Nov 5 Election day a federal holiday so that more people can get to the polls.
+ Promote ranked choice voting, at least at state levels.
+ Cut presidential campaign season to a maximum of 11 months. Nothing allowed before January of election year.
Bannon demonstrating horrific theology called Christian nationalism!
They will soon reach dark depths of inhumane behavior.
Their treatment of people just keeps getting worse. Where is this going?
Aggravated indifference to the rights and dignity of others.
