This rhetoric caught me off guard.

Is promoting the belief that it is the will of God for certain specific government officials to rule over a country’s people an expression of #religiousNationalism ?

Does religious nationalism pose a threat to the #freedomOfReligion ?

Does religious nationalism pose a threat to #democracy ?

I haven’t vetted the article much but it seems relevant.

@IanStuart makes me wonder what is the difference between this US government, and the theocracy in power in Iran, or Afghanistan.
