I guess it's progress that the media are taking Christian nationalists to task for the R's horrible
policies, like striking down the abortion pill. At least the media is now able to point out that it is religion - and a specific religion - that sits at the center of the Dobbs decision etc, not some extreme form of conservatism.

But isn’t it really all Christians who bear responsibility? I don’t see the major sects coming out and condemning such actions. I don’t see parishioners fleeing the pews. No, for the most part, they bow their heads, shuffle their feet and mumble in tacit agreement.

“Religion poisons everything.” Thus spake Hitchens years ago. That’s just as true today as it was then.

What does nationalism have to do with abortion?

People are supposed to stop going to church because of a court ruling? This makes no sense whatsoever.

Just the ravings of an ignorant anti-Christian bigot. Does Katherine Sibelius Fan seriously not know that there are atheist, Muslim, Jewish, Hindu, etc. Pro-Life people? Maybe Katherine Sibelius Fan should meet some Pro-Life people outside of his/her hate-filled imagination.

ETA: speaking of people not met, maybe Katherine Sibelius Fan could tell me where I could meet some of these "Christian nationalist" bogeys that Katherine Sibelius Fan railed against. I would not know where to look. The Evangelical Christians I've met over the decades have always valued people of other nations and people groups (do atheists have an organization like The Salvation Army or World Vision or Mercy Ships?).

I wonder if they would be happy if Christianity were banned and replaced with  transgenderism, pedofilia and the total destruction of the family

While many/most Progs want that, they'll find something else to be angry about and hate. Because anger and hatred is what they are, as exemplified on DU.

DU is like my ex-wife. They were/are only happy when they (and everyone around), is unhappy..

Not exactly sure what a "Christian Nationalist" is since most Christians believe they server in God's Kingdom and not man's.

Sibelius Fan is just an ignorant bigot venting hate.
A true DUmmy in that sense.

One of the Left's current undefined boogieman labels they slap on anyone who isn't goosestepping along with their agenda.  See also "transphobe" "homophobe" and old reliable "racist".
