Chris and Shaun continue their discussion (series) on Christian Nationalism. In Part 1 they play subject matter audio clips by Wretched Radio and Christians Against Christian Nationalism to give the listener a taste of how the topic has been addressed in public since January 6, 2021. In Part 2, they reviewed an article from Christianity Today which addresses the issue pretty well considering how broadly the term is applied and misapplied, as well as the Wikipedia entry for the term.
In Part 3, the hosts listen to a compressed clip of podcaster Allie Beth Stuckey discussing Christian Nationalism in reference to a book by a well-known Christian author. Chris and Shaun weigh in on her observations and touch base on a scene from the movie Munich, the Edge of War.

Discussion on Patriotism vs Nationalism
Segment 2 - Munich, the Edge of War
Shaun discusses a scene from the movie where two friends see Hitler from opposite points of view.
It reminds me of a movie that I recently saw, Munich, the Edge of War. Two really good friends friends, a Brit and a German, were in this one scene that really gripped me. The scene suddenly made some of the things in the US regarding Christians who support Trump very very clear. In this scene you could see the perspective of each of the two young men. Each seeing Hitler from their perspective but the opposite of the other. The Brit saw the actions of Hitler, defining what's going on in Europe by his actions. Flip it, the German sees Hitler by his words, by what he is promising, and by the positive way that he's talking about Germany; how Germany can come back and can thrive again. The friends were looking at Hitler from opposite perspectives. One was going to make the nation thrive again and sounded like a good thing. Whereas, on the flip side the Brit sees Hitler’s action and where it would take Europe. Each had a valid perspective, but if the young men didn't see where the other was coming from, they were not going to land on the same page. In fact it separated and destroyed their friendship.
Conclusion: The term Christian Nationalist is used primarily as a slur.
