I was curious about this "Christian Nationalist" sightings, which is more like UFO sightings from what I've seen. You hear that they exist, but no one you know has ever seen one.
So, two days ago, on April 26, 2024, I made a facebook post, asking if anyone was a Christian Nationalist. In order to achieve a better chance at a response, I said Christian Nationalists were ruining the U.S., and asked what they did to ruin the country.
That would surely inspire angry and defensive posts from any of my 1200 Facebook friends who truly were Christian Nationalists.
I'll go out of my way to lessen that figure of 1200 and say that maybe half of them didn't read the post. Most of them are game friends, but game friends do get the posts. I know I see more than 600 different names for posts from Facebook friends, so at least 600 had probably read that post.
In two days, not one has made a response. Not one person in 600 openly claims to be a Christian Nationalist.
That's less than people who will openly claim they have seen a UFO just for the fun of saying it.
So either "Christian Nationalism" is a myth, or it is so much of a fringe group that it could never be anything more than a joke, or the people who are Christian Nationalists are terrified of the people who rage against them.
There really are only those three possibilities.
So, do it yourself. Perform this experiment yourself. See for yourself how this myth of Christian Nationalists destroying the U.S. is something that the liars throw out there for some reason.
And yet even though we've totally debunked the notion of Christian Nationalism in the U.S., I fully expect some idiots to make posts that don't even begin to debunk the debunking.

The best explanation I can come up with would be citizens who consider Christianity to be an integral part of American cultural identity. That would have been a fair assumption a century ago but nowadays quite outdated.

How does one get 1200 Facebook friends? Are you famous in real life?

As lowbrow and common as she is, Lauren Boebert has the simple explanation:
“The church is supposed to direct the government, the government is not supposed to direct the church.”

drystyx, It's a "movement" spawned by the Globalists. As I expressed on another thread recently they are not Christians. The idea is for Christians to see Christian Nationalism as the only viable way out of the horrible mess we're in and jump on board with it. Hopefully most Christians will have the good sense to see it for what it is. They wanted 3/4 of Americans to take their filthy vaccine for their nonexistent plague, and instead of 3/4 they had to settle for about 2/3, so there is hope. We're still circling the drain to be sure, but not as fast as the Globalist scum would prefer.

I've got 3 FB Friends (out of 300+) saying yeah they are Christian Nationalist so far. It was only 1 and then a friend of a friend asked the definition so I took the one from Christianity Today...
The friend of a friend (works with a college friend who is a County Sheriff's Deputy) said yeah he was one by that definition. That separation of church and state isn't in the constitution. The establishment clause doesn't mean that. I'm pretty sure my cousin who I keep track of because I am concerned for her kids will say yes when/if she sees it. She is a Identity Christian and Serpent Seed believer...
The other that said yes after the definition is my sis in law who is pretty liberal in a lot of things, but is pretty hardcore when it comes to her views on Abortion and Christianity and how it should be taught in schools and part of government.

I'm an American Agnostic Nationalist Nationalism in certain connotations has negative aspects. Back in the day in poli-sci classes Nationalism was defined as the support of ones country to the exclusion or detriment of other countries or people. So i tend to not associate with it.

They've turned it into a horrible thing..........while collectivism is totally cool?
I want MY country to succeed.......if it's to the detriment of others, oh well. The same way I'd want my family to succeed. And myself to succeed. Somebody has to win. I would think others feel the same way, whether they ever admit it or not.
Don't forget that means I want all Americans to succeed, as well. People who are from all over the planet of every race and religion.

So if in a situation for America to come out on top say every Canadian has to suffer so be it? In a hypothetical? Patriotism on the other hand tends to be be love of country and wanting your country to succeed without the detriment to others. Now there is some negatives of Patriotism if it's blind but I would much rather associate with a Patriot than a Nationalist.

They've ruined/disparaged that word, too. Ever heard the phrase Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel?
Whether it's a contest, a race, a competition.......whatever.......there are always going to be those who do not finish in first place. Competition is good for all concerned, is it not?
A rising tide floats all boats.
