As a “Christian” nationalist said a couple of years ago: ““America should be governed according to biblical law for the benefit of believers.” [FN137] That’s brazen, not at all consistent w/equal protection of the law, and based on false narratives (a/k/a lies) about history. 1/18

“Christian” nationalists assert that the USA was founded as a “Christian” country, but none of the founding documents refers to, or notes as included in our laws, either Old or New Testament. And to say only that “they” adopted “‘Christian’ morals,’” doesn’t get it: 1/17
1) “They” construe “Christian” morals to rationalize hatred [FN98];

Any other guests I should be aware of?
