Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley’s recent First Things essay, “Our Christian Nation,” may warm the hearts of Christian nationalists and confound historians and theologians who worry about continuing threats to the separation of church and state.

    I’m reasonably certain that I can count on one hand the number of times Hawley or his GOP ilk have ever set foot in a church outside of a planned photo op.

      stats say a lot of the MAGA crowd really are churchgoers, its just the ones they go to are insane.

        Oh no doubt. In a way, that’s entirely my point.

        These GOP politicians don’t give a shit about “christian values”. They just lean hard into it in order to capture that voting block.
