410: Christian Nationalism -- is it a threat?

Beer and Conversation with Pigweed and Crowhill

Apr 27 2024 • 34 mins

P&C drink and review Experimental Black IPA from Bell’s, then discuss Christian Nationalism.

First, what the heck is Christian Nationalism? Pigweed started with three theories.

  1. An invention of the left to denigrate patriotic Christians.

  2. It’s a real movement that is way overdue if we’re going to save this great nation.

  3. It’s a real movement that is a threat to religious liberty and will transform America into a theocracy.

Were Christian nationalists behind Jan. 6, and do they want to create something like The Handmaid’s Tale? That’s what the left wants us to believe.

The opposite is the case. The left is trying to eliminate the influence of Christianity. The Amy Coney Barrett nomination process showed that clearly. We’ve come to the point that being a sincere believer might disqualify you from public office.

Four separate Supreme Court cases – that have never been overturned – say that the United States is a Christian nation.

What does that mean? Is it contrary to pluralism? Does it mean that we round up unbelievers and make them second-class citizens?

Quite the opposite. It’s because we’re a Christian nation that we give rights and respect to other people.

The fact is that all law is based on some system of morality. The only question is what morality you are going to use.
