Jeremy Bunch - A Libertarian View of Christian Nationalism
Manage episode 433901511 series 3592743
Christian Nationalism has specifically come into its own in the last year as an ideological movement. One of the core driving forces of this movement is the insistence on recognizing objective truth about the world, not giving into ideologically progressive lies about the nature of creation, and therefore recognizing that dictionaries are important to any meaningful discourse in society. Libertarians find this emphasis on the natural order and on truth to be a refreshing development within American conservatism, and also welcome many of the ideals expressed by Christian Nationalism, recognizing that these ideals have long been held and promoted by libertarians. This talk will address that, despite such progress, there are Christian Nationalists who continue to misrepresent libertarianism as being improperly individualistic and lawless.
George Buchanan was a late 16th-century Scottish Reformed thinker who used Scripture, history, and the natural law to argue for the restraint of civil rulers, the resistance to tyranny, and the freedom of Christian citizens. Like its namesake, the George Buchanan Forum is a community of liberty-minded Christians seeking to integrate theology, political theory, economics, and history.
