Christian Nationalism is a political ideology and cultural framework that merges American and Christian identities.

It uses the power of the state to enforce Christianity at the top of a believed hierarchy.

They value individual freedoms, equality, human rights, and social justice. Rejection of religious beliefs is NOT a requirement to identify as a secularist.

Skeptics challenge unproven claims with a critical attitude and seek evidence and logic. They do not accept unsubstantiated beliefs and scrutinize topics like paranormal phenomena, alternative medicine, and conspiracy theories. Seeking truth, they require sufficient evidence before accepting claims.

A religion that doesn't believe in a god or supernatural beings. They believe in science, personal freedom, and separating religion from the government.
