Started listening to the new Telling Jefferson Lies podcast about David Barton's highly embellished Christian nationalist historical accounts by @wthrockmorton, & it's excellent so far. Highly recommended.

Today is #NationalReligiousFreedomDay. Remember that religious freedom means freedom OF religion and freedom FROM religion (even if Christian nationalists seem to forget the "from" part). . . . #ReligiousFreedomDay #ReligiousFreedom

Writing for @truthout, Nicholas Powers explores how Dr. King's life provides us with a blueprint for taking on Christian nationalism. "What worked for him then can work for us today," he says. #MLKDay #MLKDay2024 #ChristianNationalism truthout.org/articles/follow…

"We often forget that kind of Star Trek side of religion, which is community-building and allowing humanity to progress through time, mature, and grow." -@RainnWilson on his new book, Soul Boom: Why We Need a Spiritual Revolution. stateofbelief.com/showarchiv…

"Our religion"? Who will be refused entry into the US? Mr. Trump is Protestant. Does this mean Catholics will be refused? He's also Christian. Will Jews be refused? What he is espousing is not patriotism but fascism. And we should take him at his word.

This is dangerous rhetoric that invites religion into government. It sets up anyone that opposes Speaker Johnson or his polices as somehow against, by his own definition, God’s will. Nobody in government should claim the mantle of God.

Implying that God will punish America because of young LGBTQ+ people is textbook #ChristianNationalism — and a cruel attack on the safety and dignity of queer youth. rollingstone.com/politics/po…
