Another hysterical leftist has a fit about 'Christian nationalism'

A new meme has emerged from leftists concerning conservatives: if conservatives are Christian, and especially if they support Trump, they are automatically Christian nationalists. This false narrative amounts to persecution of evangelical Christians.

Just this week, The Denver Post published an editorial masquerading as a news story that smeared Congresswoman Lauren Boebert as a "dangerous Christian nationalist." Not until the eleventh paragraph in the story did Conrad Swanson, the reporter, mention that Boebert's representative said that Boebert does not consider herself a Christian nationalist.

Seems Swanson had a narrative to feed first.

The headline on the story read, "Lauren Boebert is part of a dangerous religious movement that threatens democracy, experts say."

The story includes statements from so-called experts on sociology and religion who have a problem with Boebert's religion and expressed concern about Christian nationalism. However, most of the experts were sociologists and all seemed to be leftists. No balance in the story. Also, it is an old journalistic trick to hide your opinion behind quotes from experts.

Andrew Torba’s book “Christian Nationalism” has some interesting ideas. But leftists think Christian Nationalism means racism and theocracy, it doesn’t. It just means a return to the Christian values this country was founded on actually coded into law which makes a peaceful, safe and prosperous society.

Crazy things like criminals get punished, even if they are Democrats, children being taught the 3 Rs and patriotism rather than woke garbage, borders being secure, etc.

You bet your azz I’m a Christian Nationalist. Why would I deny it? It’s good and righteous to identify as an American Christian Nationalist.

American Christian Nationalism is not for the glory and greed of man, it’s to the glory and honor of GOD.

I am ok with christian nationalism but that is because I am Catholic and a patriot to this country. But you are right, the people bringing up christian nationalism as the boogy man are communists.

Nation: a community of people formed on the basis of a combination of shared features such as language, history, ethnicity, culture and/or society.

Nationalist: someone who care more about people who he regards as being part of his nation, than about people who he regards as NOT being part of his nation.

Christian Nationalist: someone who believes that his nation consists of fellow Christians.

I have been reading the books of I and II Corinthians; in the first chapter of I Corinthians the apostle Paul states emphatically that spiritual things can only be understood by the Spirit; unbelievers cannot understand them because they do not have the Spirit.

(Besides, it always torques me when atheists try to tell Christians what to believe because it is obvious that they do not know what they are talking about.)

Read the novel “Subversive”; that is its premise.
