i.e. what the Anglicans referred to as the "Low Church" which was similar to what is now referred to as Fundamentalist or Evangelical and pretends that it is the closest thing to the Church Fathers.

Go with that. It's a great mythology that works for lots of people. Unfortunately the oligarchs in power and the progressives in the street don't care a whit about that particular myth. They have their own Marxist and Materialist myths that drive their thoughts and actions.

Pretense and mythology work when spiritual faith is converted to a religion by religious philosophers who rationalize, applaud, and manage relationships with secular authorities to develop heresies useful for promoting governments that spread the miseries of despotism. For Marxism people become their own gods.,

For those on the far side of the cross, Christianity is not mythology. Believers profess that any proper community must first exalt the individual as the Christian God does. Governments must be built on preserving intangible property first sourced in personal self-protection, opinion, religion, communications, use of abilities to labor physically and mentally, and in conscience.

Such was the outcome of the Constitutional Convention when life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness became the people of the United States securing the blessings of liberty.
