The idea of a Christian America means different things to different people. Pollsters have found a wide circle of Americans who hold general God-and-country sentiments.
But within that is a smaller, hardcore group who also check other boxes in surveys — such as that the U.S. Constitution was inspired by God and that the federal government should declare the U.S. a Christian nation, advocate Christian values or stop enforcing the separation of church and state.

Fascism is ever shrinking circles. Once they make christianity law and genocide and imprison all non christians they will start to genocide and imprison all the “wrong” christians. Eventually all that is left is the dictator with his private security on one side and the population of slaves on the other.
So Russia…
