“One big misunderstanding about religious freedom right now is this false idea that religious freedom means you have a right for the government’s laws to reflect your religious views or your theology...That’s not religious freedom. That’s theocracy.” Thank you, Amanda Tyler! What an incredibly helpful and practical conversation. And I so appreciate being pointed to the many resources on the Christians Against Christian Nationalism site. I’m navigating there presently.

Amazing, illuminating and helpful discussion. Thank you. The elicitation of the question how genuine can coerced Christianity be was impressive. The resources listed will be pursued. Baked in is indeed much of the dilemma; a long struggle faces us.

Thanks for listening, and I appreciate you taking the time to comment. Yes, this ideology is deep and widespread. We’re looking at decades-long work to undo.

The two groups overlap and are comfortable with each other because they share the same aims. I think any methods designed to defuse disinformation would work with both groups.
