Been seeing a lot of left sites using this as their boogie man. It is tied to the Roe v Wade decision. If Roe is gone, they will attack Christians and call it a fight against race and sex. Expect churches to get targeted, and even firebombed. They will justify their extreme position by saying they are saving democracy. What did the Jan 6 commission say day one? It was a coup; they are protecting democracy. The Left-wing leaders are writing their script for Nov and the next two years right now.

Once a Supreme Court justice is assassinated and the left doesn’t condemn it, it’s on.

I'd argue this would have already happened, except the same people who would be called Christian Nationalists are the ones who can (and will) shoot back. There's a reason cowards shoot up schools and not police stations.

I'm not a fan of the term "Christian nationalism" to describe these people. There is nothing Christian about these individuals and the worldview they support and want to force upon all Americans. Their mixture of religion and American right-wing Trumpism ideology is an insult to the message of Christ and other Christians.

Perhaps religious nationalism would be a more accurate term or maybe religious Trumpism.

The worst thing our country can do is to allow other country's religions influence on our lands. But that's a dem agenda. I hope you dumb**** libtard mother****ers suffer.

Texas pastor says gay people should be 'shot in the back of the head' in shocking sermon

"I’m angry this morning because our entire country is celebrating the worse sin in the Bible," Awes said during the sermon referring to Pride Month, which commemorates the LGBTQ+ community every June.

"You know a lot of pastors have this stupid idea where it’s just like, 'oh you know God loves everyone. And God hates the sin but loves the sinner.' But people have taken this to such an extreme where they’re saying celebrate the sin, not just tolerate it, celebrate it," he continued. "Let me show what the Bible says about these people."

Awes read several passages from the Bible and condemned homosexuality as a sin. At one point, he told the congregation that gay people "are dangerous to society" and said that "all homosexuals are pedophiles."

"I’m not saying that every single homosexual that’s alive right now has committed that act with a child already because it could be they haven’t had the opportunity yet and they will at some point later in their life," he said. "This is why we need to put these people to death through the proper channels of the government. ... These people are not normal. They’re not your average everyday sinners. ... They have no hope of salvation."

"These people should be put to death. Every single homosexual in our country should be charged with a crime. The abomination of homosexuality that they have, they should be convicted in a lawful trial. They should be sentenced with death. They should be lined up against the wall and shot in the back of the head," he said.

Seems like this all came about in response to anticipated reversal of Roe v. Wade. So wanting to ban the slaughter of unborn babies is an insult to the message of Christ?

This is an incorrect statement. Discussions regarding the rise of religious nationalism on the right has been around for some time now. And the blending of Trumpism with religious extremism has been a topic of discussion since 2016. It didn't just start with Alito's leak memo.

Yes, I don't believe in forcing one's religious beliefs upon all Americans by government decree. I definitely oppose that hate-filled preacher trying to force his religious view that all homosexuals should be shot in the back of the head upon all Americans by government decree.

Do you agree with what that main said?

I'm calling bullshit on this. There were a number of articles in 2016 that talked about the fact that the Christian right didn't like Trump and the Republicans were concerned that was going to suppress turnout. Here's the Christian poll that has Trump trailing Cruz 63 to 16.

Christians voted Trump in 2016 because he was better than the Democrat alternative. Saying otherwise is simply an attempt to change the facts to support today's leftist narrative.

Maybe what you meant to say is "thats different?"
Maybe his religious views differ from yours. Either way you are pushing your views on him so lets circle back, "thats different."

Notice, I said "on the right." Which would clearly include religious nationalists supporting right-wing candidates such as Ted Cruz. I then used the word "and" indicating I was referencing another point as it related specifically to Trump.

And btw, not all Christians embrace religious nationalism.

His religious views are clearly different from mine. As for your "that's different" deflection, please show me where I've stated the government should force my religious views upon this man and not allow him to preach.

Also, when you are done deflecting away from the substance of these comments, let me know, do you agree with what that main said?

That's not what you said. You stated: "the blending of Trumpism with religious extremism has been a topic of discussion since 2016". Now you are saying that the religious extremism started in 2016 and the Trumpism blending into later. But clearly, per the evidence, Trump was not popular with the Christian right in 2016 and thus stating that they were blending together in 2016 is a falsehood.

No, what I stated was "and the blending of Trumpism with religious extremism has been a topic of discussion since 2016." Right after I stated "discussions regarding the rise of religious nationalism on the right has been around for some time now." Ted Cruz is a politician on the right, is he not?

Now you are saying that the religious extremism started in 2016 and the Trumpism blending into later.

No, I'm not saying this.

But clearly, per the evidence, Trump was not popular with the Christian right in 2016 and thus stating that they were blending together in 2016 is a falsehood.

This is incorrect. Again, this was all being discussed as far back as 2016 in relation to Trump.

In all honesty, "Christian Nationalism" is simply the liberal's next attempt to create a label for the extreme right that they can associate to the Republican party to try to make the right look as having shifted Right as much as the left has shifted due to its association with groups like BLM and Antifa. Ultra-Maga didn't work, so now you're going with Christian Nationalism.

Again, this statement is factually incorrect as the links I shared showed.

Discussions of the religion right's connection to Trumpism has been present ever since 2016.
