The rightwingnuts would have you believe that our country was conceived by Christians for Christians. Wrong.

 The Constitution also says nothing about God, the Bible or the Ten Commandments. And saying the US was founded as a Christian nation ignores the facts. In fact, the Constitution specifically defines a separation of Church and State, but that doesn’t deter the rightwingnuts, who line up behind Trump, as the new representative of Jesus.

An 'imposter Christianity' is threatening American democracy

Three men, eyes closed and heads bowed, pray before a rough-hewn wooden cross. Another man wraps his arms around a massive Bible pressed against his chest like a shield. All throughout the crowd, people wave "Jesus Saves" banners and pump their fists toward the sky.

At first glance, these snapshots look like scenes from an outdoor church rally. But this event wasn't a revival; it was what some call a Christian revolt. These were photos of people who stormed the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, during an attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.
