The Founding Fathers, Deism, and Christianity | Christianity, Enlightenment & Religion | Britannica
For some time the question of the religious faith of the Founding Fathers has generated a culture war in the United States. Scholars trained in research universities have generally argued that the majority of the Founders were religious rationalists or Unitarians. Pastors and other writers who

One of their founding platforms is enshrined in the Bill Of Rights. They and the Methodists and Presbyterians got Jefferson elected VP and then Prez, and kept the faction of Federalists who wanted to make the Anglican Church the national government sect from succeeding.

Lying lefty bullshit, as usual...There are some Nazi-adjacent politicians these days claiming they are "Christian Nationalists".
So what is Christian Nationalism, you may be wondering.
Well, they want to trash the First Amendment and have our federal government declare we are a Christian nation.
In the same way White Nationalists want a white nation.
Marjorie Taylor Greene has declared herself a CN. I don't know what Bible she has which allows for an open marriage, though. I don't know what Bible she has which sanctions bearing false witness against others.
Maybe she ripped out a few pages here and there. I don't know.
The problem with Christian Nationalism is, which brand of Christianity will we be? I certainly don't want to be MTG's brand!
In 1802, the Baptists of Danbury, Connecticut wrote to Founder Thomas Jefferson to tell him of their plight. The official state religion of Connecticut was Protestant Calvinism. The Baptists felt their religious freedom was being impinged upon.
Jefferson's response letter contained the immortal words "separation of church and state" to describe the intent of the First Amendment's establishment clause.
So if we were to toss out the Bill of Rights and force everyone to believe what they are told to believe, which belief would that be?
Would it be Catholic integralism? They are the largest Christian denomination in America.
But then MTG believes Catholics work for Satan.
So you see the problem.

I love the terror this petite blonde woman stirs in the breast of the leftist vermin.
Y'all sure do get scared of a little woman who can defend herself. Leftist vermin hate it when women can defend themselves against anything bigger and tougher than an unborn baby.
It's so much fun to watch.
Say more!

Not to mention, in reality, there are plenty of White Nationalists who are aligned ideologically with Christian Nationalism. No shortage of that here on USMB.There are some Nazi-adjacent politicians these days claiming they are "Christian Nationalists".

This is an ideology based on (1) the perverted leverage of a major religion and (2) mal-informed paranoia. Much like what has happened to a segment of Islam.
Essentially Christianity's version of Jihadism.

I would not want to live in a christian nation anymore than I would want to live in a Muslim nation.

None of you leftists can even honestly define Christian nationalism. You're just told by the Church of the Holy Glowing Rectangle to hate anything Christian or nationalist and you have no choice but to hate anything Christian or nationalist.
You just get funnier by the minute.
Upvote me.

I admit to being a nationalist.
I am not, however, a Christian. In this case, 50% is not a good score.
Try harder.
Upvote me, bitch.

Progs made this up. Christian Nationalism! You as a prog want all of the benefits of the Socialist state. The socialist state that is the United States is being deconstructed by the globalists. What was the United States to be blended into the world government. So you are a globalist socialist communist. 8 billion people in the world. At least 6 billion will be under globalists. Downsizing is coming here and is in the process already. Less resources for the peasants. The peasants that are of the non-privileged middle class are already feeling it with the evil inflation that politicians use.

Yes, a White Nationalist. Illustrating my point, perfectly.
You poor things have no idea how often you do that. But it's always appreciated.

More ignorance.
Not being a White/Christian Nationalist does not make one a "prog", regardless of how simple your little world is. Sorry.
