Thanks Dr. Bird for doing a critique of the book. I haven’t read the book. It’s very popular in Reformed/ Calvinist circles in America 🇺🇸. You also definitely want to read A Case against Christian Nationalism by Blake Collins( have read but would like to), he critiques Steven Wolves book. I also think Christians ought to read the works of Roger Williams. I live in RI and the idea of Christian Nationalism is very unpopular in New England. His wisdom for church/state issues might be useful.

You are going to have to expand on your Brexit comment in the future. I read from Belfast where a European identity persuaded many to vote for the Good Friday agreement and provided an alternative reality in which Irish and British nationalists could live together.

Protestants in Northern Ireland tried their own version of Christian Nationalism in the 1950’s and 60’s and look where it got us .

Looking forward to the next instalment!

I am no fan of Christian Nationalism. I have read Douglas Wilson’s, Mere Christendom. While agreeing with many of his criticisms of our current national social and political status, his prescriptions are far off-base. He calls himself a “theocratic libertarian”.
