Ep. 89: Christian Nationalism (Biblical Literalism Is Idolatry) (American History / Theology / 4th of July / Fundie Snark / Christian Music / Manifest Destiny)
Happy 4th of July! On today's episode, Sadie explains to Gavri'el exactly where the idea of Christian Nationalism comes from, and why so many Christians in the United States believe that America is supposed to be a Christian nation.
Note: We recorded this episode several weeks prior to the US Supreme Court's reversal of Roe v. Wade. Because of this, we make MANY jokes about topics that are REALLY not very funny in the light of that ruling. We hope you'll keep that in mind as you listen.
