In a completely expected and unsurprising move, Donald Trump has violated the Establishment Clause of the U.S. Constitution with his executive order “Eradicating Anti-Christian Bias.” The christian nationalism that has been bubbling up in the Republican Party is starting to boil over.

The order cites attacks on Christian buildings and violence against its practitioners while ignoring context and data:

A-Mark Foundation: “Only 18% of attacks targeting Christian or Catholic places of worship were motivated by racial, ethnic, or religious hatred. However, attacks targeting Jewish (93%) and Muslim (83%) houses of worship were overwhelmingly motivated by antisemitic or Islamophobic hate.”

Dolan Consulting Group: “The only religions that showed a clearly disproportionate rate of violence incidents were Islamic mosques and Sikh temples. Islamic mosques make up less than 1% of the places of worship in the U.S., yet 2% of all violence incidents occurred at mosques. Sikh temples make up less than 0.1% of the places of worship in the U.S., yet 1% of all violent offenses occurred at these temples.”

While setting the stage for a modern Inquisition, Trump is claiming victimhood and persecution against a privileged majority, much like Hitler did. It’s time for Christians, the majority of Americans, to find some time (maybe on Christmas, because no other religion has a federally recognized holiday), open their Trump “God Bless the USA” Bible (that was made in China), consider what they truly believe, and read Matthew 7:15 – “Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.”
