I have to agree with this point. I can’t figure out what’s supposed to be wrong or frightening about being a “Christian nationalist” (although that graphic does bother me—we Jews don’t place guns, or anything else, on our Bibles). stream.org/why-im-a-chris…

There are bad apples in every bushel. But *on average,* Christian nationalists are going to be a whole lot better to have around, and to be around, than Christian imperialists.

And Christian nationalists are much more likely to know what’s what than atheist nationalists.

So I guess the only way there’s going to be something really bad about being a Christian nationalist is if you’re the kind of person who figures that being a Christian is really bad, and that being a nationalist is also bad—so it’s like a badness double feature of some kind.

But the worse things get in America, the more difficult it is for me to see how this great nation is going to pull through without an broad revival of traditional love of one’s people and love of one’s traditional religious heritage.

And that means that people who wish America well are going to welcome a revived spirit of Christian nationalism.
