The Rise of Christian Nationalism
Christian nationalism is a contentious term that has elicited varied responses within Christian communities. Some argue that labeling it as a smear oversimplifies complex beliefs, as demonstrated by a survey revealing that 68% of Christians who view it as a smear simultaneously believe it is the sole idea capable of rescuing the nation. In contrast, 74% of those who do not see it as a smear reject the notion that it can save America. The phenomenon is characterized by what some scholars, like David Gushy, describe as authoritarian reactionary Christianity, highlighting a notable faction that views Christian nationalism as essential for the nation's salvation. This division suggests a significant ideological split among Christians regarding the implications and value of Christian nationalism, reflecting broader societal tensions.
