CNN Documentary to Examine Rise and Radicalization of Christian Nationalism This Sunday

Apple TV

Oh, boy … coming up this Sunday is an hour-long documentary by CNN's Pamela Brown on the rise of Christian nationalism … the crazy idea that the country was founded on Judeo-Christian values and should reflect that. Of course, Brown found an expert — a professor at the Georgetown University Center of Faith and Justice — to reflect on how the memorial service for Charlie Kirk was the best recent example of Christian nationalists being "radicalized."

The post continues:

… at the idea that Christians were being targeted with hate and violence:

PAMELA BROWN: Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist and prominent Christian nationalist, was assassinated. It became a rallying call for those who believed in his message. (...) And it was a call to action. 

MATTHEW TAYLOR (Georgetown University Center of Faith and Justice): Memorial service was one of the most potent examples of this shift in our culture that we're experiencing right now, where a large segment of American Christians are being activated by these ideas, radicalized by these ideas that say that they are the persecuted ones and that they need to stand up for Christians rights.

A large segment of American Christians are being radicalized by these ideas. Kirk was assassinated, not just persecuted.

The post continues:

… said that they intended to "protect Christians" from violence and people wishing to kill them.

Attempting to draw terrifying parallels, Brown warns that Trump thinks God saved him during the assassination attempt against him: "Trump has never explicitly said he believes the country should be a Christian nation, but he is aligned with Christian nationalists and wants their support and after an assassination attempt during his campaign, Trump said he believes god saved his life so he can lead the country."

That's exactly right … they're Christians. "Christian nationalism" is just the new bogeyman they've dragged out of the closet since "white supremacy" fizzled out. It's a meaningless term intended to instill fear.

That reminds us of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez putting finger quotes around Western culture the other day, as if it weren't a real thing.

Brown is going to warn us about the dangers of Christian nationalism. Will she sit down and talk in good faith with any Christians, or just the communist professor?
