Re: Christian Nationalism...don't let the left define it. Don't believe what they say
https://stream.org/the-six-things-you-need-to-know-about-christian-nationalism/
1. No One Knows What It Is
2. They Don’t Care if It’s True, As Long as It’s Useful
3. The Charge is Dishonest and Hateful
4.. It’s Meaningless, Except Where It Isn’t
5. You Need Not Duck
So how do we answer? How do we face this barrage? Our crucial first step is remembering it’s just blanks they’re firing at us, a false shame game we need not submit to. It’s noisy, it can be intimidating, but where is it written that we should cower before it?
Jesus said the world would hate us. He sends us out “as sheep in the midst of wolves,” as He Himself said. He also told us He is “the good shepherd who lays down His life for His sheep.” We’re in good hands.
6. The Best Defense is a Good …
Finally, you need to know how to answer talk about “Christian nationalism.” The first rule: Don’t defend yourself or Christianity, not if your defense is, “No, no, no, we’re not Christian nationalists!” Not even if it’s the slightly improved version, “No, we’re really just Christians who care about the condition of our country.” Chances are they won’t know the difference between that and Christian nationalism. No one really knows what that term means, remember.
You’re much better off asking questions instead, starting with, “What does ‘Christian nationalism’ mean, in your opinion?” They won’t have a good answer. No one does. So start out gently: This could be rough on them.

The left hates christianity.... Christianity is kryptonite to marxism. Why is that.
https://www.westernjournal.com/leftists-hate-christianity-kryptonite-marxism-filmmakers-say/
Kirk asked, why is it Christianity seems to be “the kryptonite of this ideology that is taking over the planet?”
“Christianity offers repentance and forgiveness,” Lindsay said. “This is absolutely crucial. Every single individual, not a collective.”
“This church can’t repent and be forgiven, and everybody is now forgiven. You have to decide individually. So individualism against collectivism is rooted in Christianity,” Lindsay explained.
“When you said kryptonite, there is nothing on Earth that is more repellent to the envy-driven, laziness-driven, hate-driven motivations of a collectivist ideology than individual repentance and forgiveness. Nothing,” he added.

Because the Left hates the idea of God. It, they, want to BE gods.
If they make government into god; and they control government...they are as gods.
And they believe it. Listen to the madness coming from the mouth of that Israeli homosexual who's shacking up with Klaus in Davos. He thinks he can re-engineer humanity...re-engineer life.
How's his little project going, so far? Deaths are setting records not seen since the Black Plague. But he's doing real well suppressing the official news of it...suppressing it with MONEY. And THREATS.
But that is their problem...the problem narcissistic self-absorbed rich men have had, all throughout history.

christian nationalists,...loving their neighbor, loving their country since 1776.
Let me begin with what Christian Nationalism isn’t. Christian nationalism is NOT what the mainstream media liars are calling it. According to a piece of journalistic garbage published in Axios (https://www.axios.com/2024/02/28/poll-christian-nationalism-americans-reject) Christian Nationalism is tied with things like banning books and teaching religion in schools. The propagandists behind the article failed to mention that the books these terrible “Christian Nationalists” were pushing to ban were pornography and they were requesting that the aforementioned porn was found in schools. They also failed to mention that the idea of teaching religion was less about a specific religion and more about teaching basic values of right and wrong that no society can function without.
Yes – Axios and their quasi-journalist writer (Russell Contreras) certainly know how to misrepresent the facts.

The godless left wants to save Christian from themselves.
The left hates Christians, even the liberal, nonjudgmental ones in nondenominational megachurches with pastors in skinny jeans. But because this is an election year and their presumed candidate and his vice-presidential backup option are such pathetically weak choices, the panicked left cannot afford to alienate all those Christian deplorables and drive them toward the Republican candidate. So their strategy, as always, is to divide and conquer. Thus, the left is ramping up hysteria about a segment of the Christian population they are painting as a clear and present danger to “democracy” (i.e., Democrat hegemony): Christian nationalists.
The left is trying many things...they're BudLight of the Political world.

Good.
It gave a bunch of grips and cameramen a job; it depleted his pockets and credibility; and he has less resources to wreak destruction with.

Re: Christian Nationalism...don't let the left define it. Don't believe what they say
I saw a meme the other day as follows:
If you want to offend a Conservative, lie to them.
If you want to offend a liberal, tell them the truth.
That about sums it up!

https://www.christianpost.com/books/voddie-baucham-talks-lgbt-takeover-of-civil-rights.html
Voddie Baucham writes about the lgbt takeover of Civil rights..that thing where they try to say...Gay is the new black. No. It isn't.
He also addresses the manufactured charge of Christian Nationalism.
'Manufactured crisis' of Christian nationalism
Baucham also touched on Christian nationalism, telling CP that he believes the crisis over the topic is "purely manufactured," evidence for which he says can be found in the fact that nobody can agree on its definition.
"People will ask me, 'What do you think about Christian nationalism, or where do you stand on Christian nationalism?' My first question is always, 'How are you defining the term?' And almost inevitably, I get a response that is unclear."
Noting how "white Christian nationalism" earns what he described as "a triple-word score" on the intersectionality scoring scale, Baucham believes the nebulous nature of the definition is intentional because it allows the label to be used as a "boogeyman."
He also blasted as "absolutely ridiculous" the definition Politico journalist Heidi Przybyla offered in February, when she said during an MSNBC panel that the ideology is marked by believing rights come from God.
"Anybody who passed civics, when faced with that definition, would say, 'Well, yeah, I guess I am a Christian nationalist.'"
Others, by contrast, tend to define it too narrowly, he said. Both schools, he thinks, are distracting from the real issues.
Baucham went on to note the irony that Zambia, where he now lives, is overwhelmingly black and still defines itself as "a Christian nation" under "the supremacy of God Almighty" in the preamble to its constitution.
"Here I am in an almost exclusively black country in sub-Saharan Africa that identifies itself with a preamble to its constitution as a Christian nation," he said, noting that when he brings up such a fact to those objecting to so-called white Christian nationalism, many of them try to "shrug it off" by suggesting that Zambia's case is different.
"I'm not buying it, I'm not falling for it," he said. "It's a distraction."
He added that when he is questioned about his position on Christian nationalism, he parries by replying that he is not "a pagan globalist."
"And if you're not a pagan globalist, then what are you?" he said. "And then they don't have an answer, right? They don't have an answer, which again exposes the fact that, in my opinion, this is manufactured. It's a manufactured crisis."
