Add Lebanon in the "By Country" Section edit

Can we start a section on Lebanon? I feel like Lebanon has a lot to go off of as far as Christian nationalism is concerned. I think important groups to mention would be the Kataeb Party, Lebanese Front, Lebanese Forces (Christian militia), Lebanese Forces (political party), and the Free Patriotic Movement. 140.141.4.65 (talk) 21:51, 3 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

The Case for Christian Nationalism edit

An IP editor has repeatedly reinserted material regarding the book The Case for Christian Nationalism, which is not a book for am academic or academically-respected press. It is a book that defines and recommends a very specific, xenophobic version of Christian nationalism that cannot be assumed to be the general view of American Christian nationalists. The insertions have lacked third-party sources showing that the quotes being used of are import. It should not be reinserted. -- Nat Gertler (talk) Nat Gertler (talk) 06:24, 4 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

"xenophobic version of Christian nationalism that cannot be assumed to be the general view of American Christian nationalists" So, you think that Christian nationalists are not xenophobic? Based on which source? Dimadick (talk) 08:05, 4 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
I'm not saying that American Christian nationalism is not generally or frequently xenophobic; I'm saying that because an advocacy book with Christian Nationalism in the title calls for xenophobic action, that does not make it a proper source for such statements. Cannot be assumed is meant differently than isn't. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 15:14, 4 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Well, the situation has changed just in the last few days with the publication of Owen Strachan's "One “Holy Nation” in Christ: Christian Nationalism in Historical and Theological Perspective" in GDJT. He notes (p. 83) that Wolfe's book is "the longest text written in recent days to support CN". The most interesting quote is on p. 59: "In general, the New Testament is — by and large — missing from Wolfe's Thomistic project of political philosophy."

I'm not sure that says much for inclusion here, but may fit nicely into the book's own article. Nat Gertler (talk) 19:33, 4 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
It’s looks to be a fine source for the book and the wider phenomenon of Christian Nationalism in the context of this page. 3Kingdoms (talk) 16:20, 7 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
I am uncertain of the reliability of the GDJT. It is a fairly new entry to the journal field, published by a ministry rather than by an academic press. However, I am unused to evaluating journals. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 18:08, 7 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
