And who ever said Chrstian Nationalism had anything to do with Jesus
Christ, who clearly stated that his kingdom is /not/ of this world?
That strikes me with surprise because I have you pigeon holed as a
religious nutter of a Christian cult bent.
From my childhood Presbyterian brainwashing, with nothing to contradict
it since, the definition of a Christian is someone who is a believer in
and follower of the biblical Jesus (Christ), not necessarily in all the
evil machinations of the warlike Old Testament God and incredibly vague
about the function of the Holy Ghost, who being one of an inseparable
trinity would also be a king of this other worldly kingdom. Would it be
addressed as Your Holiness? They are not Godians nor Ghostians but
Christians. And the kingdom doesn't have an organisational hierarchy
chart nor a coloured wall chart with an arrowed "You Are Here" overlay.
If you also agree that Western cultures worship of commercialism,
including borrowing and lending, of Christmas also has nothing to do
with Jesus Christ, it is not too difficult to realise that most
Christians are brilliant if unknowing hypocrites.
The NZ Prime Minister, (who until recently spelt cat with a k), is a
devout member of some weird USA Christian cult that preaches that Jesus
Christ's kingdom is on earth right now and that the righteous believers
like himself, are those being rewarded right now with monetary wealth.
