Former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn calls for one religion in America
Business Insider via MSN ^ | 11/14/21 | Morgan Keith

At a three-day conference in San Antonio, Texas, for the "ReAwaken America" tour, former national security adviser and keynote speaker Michael Flynn called for Christianity to become the singular religion of the United States.

"If we are going to have one nation under God, which we must, we have to have one religion. One nation under God, and one religion under God," said Flynn, who recently talked about his Christian faith in an effort to refute QAnon claims that he worships Satan.

The clip is cut off abruptly which makes me think there may be more that Flynn said. But if this quote is in context then it's a pretty dumb thing to say.

Probably. But they have him on video saying it. So if it's a hit job he gave them the ammunition.

If he did say that, he was merely repeating what our Founding Fathers said.

You mean like this one?

"Who does not see that the same authority which can establish Christianity, in exclusion of all other Religions, may establish with the same ease any particular sect of Christians, in exclusion of all other Sects?" - James Madison, 1786

Something makes me think that when Flynn says "Christianity" should be the one religion he's not talking about Disciples of Christ or Unitarians.

Unitarians aren't Christians...most of them are atheists. Ask them...they'll tell you.

It is a dangerous concept in a country that is supposed to respect the liberties of the individual. What happens when the “majority” or the “lawmakers” decide that religion will be forced Islam?

It is a very dangerous door to open no matter what faith is pushed. Because it could change and end up being what you do not want.

I like the idea but I’d like to exclude the Rapture people. They creep me out.

“The clip is cut off abruptly which makes me think there may be more that Flynn said.”

Here is my requirement for quotes, in order to obtain context. I want the complete sentence. I want the paragraph that contains the sentence. I want the preceding and subsequent paragraph.

The preceding requirements will provide adequate context in a large majority, say 90%, of cases. Unless the preceding requirements are met, it’s just noise. Junk.

By the way, when Joe Biden said that the Democratic party had achieved new highs in organized voter fraud, it was in context, as described above.

If he did say it....so what...it’s conceptual at best....backed by no authority...and simply ain’t gonna happen.

He was most certainly not proposing to try to Chritianize America by government edict, i.e., fake conversions; but he needs to explain himself in greater detail.

I’d have to hear the context.

If he said it the way it appears, it’s appalling, misguided and UNconstitutional. And- the left has gone predictably nuts- Michael Flynn is trending on Twitter.

But even if it's forced Christianity, what sect?

When someone closely associated with Trump says something so incredibly stupid then what do you expect the left to do? Take advantage of it.

Okay, we can be under two gods. The triune god of the Bible, and the flying spaghetti monster. Or add the god of Islam and have three.

The one world movement aims to either do the impossible, combine civilizations into one harmonious pot, or it aims to set itself up as the object of worship - reject all supernatural gods.

Toxic diversity is the path society as a whole is on, and there is no reversing of that - no matter what sort of suggestion Flynn has in mind.
