The Lutheran(ELCA) bishops of Wisconsin speak:

"We, the Lutheran (ELCA) bishops in Wisconsin and Upper Michigan, are concerned about an executive order signed by President Trump on Feb. 6 that established a new 'Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias.' This task force has the duty to 'identify any unlawful anti-Christian policies, practices, or conduct by an agency.'"

"While some might think that all Christians would support an effort to root out 'anti-Christian bias,' that’s not the case. We believe this executive order is a threat to the religious pluralism enshrined in the Constitution and does not actually protect Christians."

"Instead, this order aligns the federal government with Christian Nationalism, a dangerous conflation of fundamentalist Christianity, conservative politics, and fierce patriotism that distorts what it means to be an American citizen and an engaged Christian in society."

William Lindsey :toad:

"Christian Nationalism is a dangerous ideology that distorts the Gospel and turns Jesus and Christianity into a weapon for power and division instead of a movement towards love and justice. It demands that a particular brand of Christianity be privileged by the state and impose that singular belief system in order to be a 'good American.'”
