⬅️ Back to 60.3 Politics · Sisters: Ideology & Foundations · The Right — Conservatism (MOC) · Far Right & Woke Right (MOC)
The intersection of religious commitments, political authority, national identity, and electoral coalitions. This folder groups the political argument and evidence notes; theology and religious history remain in 60.11 Religion.
The governing question from the existing research
Christian Nationalism asks whether divine law may override popular sovereignty and what political status non-adherents would hold. Nation’s Founding vs. “Biblical Order” approaches the same tension through American constitutional origins; addresses the institutional alternative. These are linked questions, not interchangeable claims about all religious voters.
