(RNS) - The Democratic National Committee has passed a resolution condemning “white religious nationalism,” declaring that “theocracy is incompatible with democracy and religious freedom.”
The resolution was approved over the weekend as Democratic Party officials gathered in Philadelphia for their winter meeting. The resolution, put forward by more than 30 co-sponsors from across the country, linked forms of religious nationalism to racist ideologies, arguing that “one of many heinous elements of white nationalism is its perversion of religion to make their hateful message more palatable.”
The authors noted that faith leaders from across the religious spectrum have condemned religious nationalism - particularly Christian nationalism or white Christian nationalism - in recent years. They said its influence was visible during the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
“White religious nationalism has used the cover of patriotism to foment and inflame hate by providing cover for racism, anti-Semitism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and islamophobia,” the resolution read in part.
The document, first reported by the Friendly Atheist Substack newsletter, went on to draw connections between religious nationalism and the Republican Party. The resolution implicitly linked the ideology to various conservative efforts, including the overturning of the landmark Roe v. Wade decision last summer by the Supreme Court.
**SNIP**
“Since he was elected, President Biden has been warning Americans about the threats to our democracy on multiple fronts,” Levin said in a statement. “White Christian nationalism should be at the top of that list, and for the sake of our democracy, it’s time to call it what it is.”
I learned about the Democrat party’s problem with christianity as a teenager in the early 80’s when a caller to a radio show said “I am an atheist and I’m voting for Mondale”.
That told me all I meeded to know.
When do they ban and burn all Bibles????
If you know for sure that we are NOT a religious nation, and you also know that patriotism for our nation is religion ...
you might be a Democrat. LOL
And here I was always told that the “democracy” that democrats want to follow should include “everyone” so you can imagine the dismay over them not wanting to include “everyone”.
Nationalism? Democrats condemn being proud of your country and focusing on the well being of America?
I condemn them for their disloyalty to America.
What about Satanic Worship grinder dancing frenzy by Transgender Homos on Grammy TV - is that Good for muh Democracies?
OMG ! They aren’t even Trying to hide their EVIL !
Yeah, I could twist that like a Southern Democrat in the KKK, but I know better.
The problem here isn’t religion, it’s understanding historical context. Democrats have zero desire to understand history. In fact, they constantly eliminate history and replace it with lies. They also have the terrible problem with changing the definition of words. The result is they don’t learn from the past and everything related to wisdom is meaningless mush.
For the record, there’s no chance of America becoming a theocracy considering how few people today embrace anything religious. Additionally, we don’t have a democracy. Democrats begin with a lie of theocracy to get to another lie that a democracy is such a better form of government. That’s hideous.
white religious nationalism?
They trying out a new straw man?
Democrats are incompatible with freedom and capitalism.
Amen and here’s another:
Matthew 28:18
And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
Keep Fighting! The Democrats think they can shame White Christians into voting for their Communist agenda.
Name calling is an effective tool of the Left. There is no real definition and nobody seems to ask what it means. Another example is a hate crime. What exactly does that mean?
Religious persecution is coming. This is the beginning. Commies Tyrants always go this route. Who they view as White Religious Nationalists are people who will not bow to them or their agenda.
Democrats are racist pigs. Being white and Christian is a threat to them. It’s all fake. That filthy party is built on a big stack of lies.

It’s advisable to sever all known contact with Leftist/Democrat/Socialist/Communist enemies of our Constitutional Republic. I have.
Guilty as charged. I am white, Christian, and a nationalist who does not support the WEF or globalist agenda. I also abhor killing babies +1000
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I’m on board. It will soon become a matter of life or death for people who think as we do.
Since our birth, Religion and Republic are two Rs that have unashamedly, until now, gone hand in hand. It accounts for our greatness as a nation. Now there is a growing plurality that would shed that greatcoat. And disaster looms.
When do they ban and burn all Bibles????
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I suspect that will be when they begin the burning of everyone who owns one.
Democrats condemn being proud of your country and focusing on the well being of America?
