  They rail against Sharia law while pushing for the exact version of it based on their Christian Nationalist ideas.... Pathetic hypocrites.

  They want Christian nationalism but they don’t want to feed the hungry, have compassion for immigrants, or even love their neighbors.

  &quot;Christian values&quot; is a dog whistle. Moderates will view it as more or less a synonym of &quot;be good to your neighbor&quot;, &quot;be kind&quot;, &quot;give to charity&quot;. Meanwhile the rightwing is using it to justify banning gay people.

  &quot;Christian ideas are SO disturbing.&quot;<br>You can imagine how these people would react if someone proposed declaring America a Muslim nation or an Atheist nation or even a Mormon nation.

  We are not a christian country. We were founded based on humanist enlightenment principles.

  These guys send a chill through me. I grew up in a small town where there were only 2 churches: Baptist and Methodist. The Baptist was the larger. They constantly were informing the Methodists &nbsp;theywere going to hell. I&apos;m a Methodist but lucky because I was quite large but others were prone to bullying in school. The preacher of the Baptist church was arrested for vandalizing the Methodist church. &nbsp;Christian Nationalism will look just like this.

  I give a great deal of credit to how hard the founders worked to keep personal gods out of our politics, and hope it stays that way.

  Christian nationalism is a label they embrace, but also say is a &quot;scare tactic&quot;
