Trump Supports Anti-Christian Bias

Religion Clause Blog reports: 

Yesterday, the President's Task Force to Eradicate anti-Christian Bias issued a report (full text) titled Eradicating Anti-Christian Bias within the Federal Government. The 197-page Report (with an additional 368 pages of Exhibits) focuses on policies of the Biden Administration.

The report has the usual Trump anti-Biden bullshit. Biden, whose expression of religious beliefs was much more honest than Trump's, supposedly is "anti-Christian." 

Biden regularly wore his religion on his sleeve and did so a lot more credibly than the current occupant. His Administration also respected equality, including the diversity of Christian beliefs. 

Trump's Administration selectively weaponizes Christian beliefs, promoting Christian nationalism, while disrespecting many Christians. This includes changing long in place policy regarding ICE enforcement at places of worship.

Where is this so-called anti-Christian bias? For instance, people who blocked clinics, motivated partially by religious beliefs, were not allowed merely to continue to do so. Laws protecting clinics were enforced. So, people could freely obtain health care, pursuant to their (often Christian) moral beliefs.

Vaccine mandates were also enforced. First, the average Christian doesn't find vaccines problematic. Second, requiring workers, including health care workers, to vaccinate or use alternative methods to protect others, is not "anti-Christian bias."  

There are rules in place respecting non-profits with tax breaks. Religions and religious organizations, whatever the religion, don't deserve a special exemption from the rules here. 

And so, it goes on and on. The Trump Administration promotes a selective form of Christian nationalism. The Baptist Joint Committee for Religious Liberty has flagged the problems of Christian Nationalism. But then, they aren't the "Christians" the Administration is concerned about.

Religious liberty is a fundamental aspect of freedom, not just in the promotion of some favored ones. It is too precious to let such special pleading go on without comment. See also, Justice Thomas and his confused and biased take on how "they" ignore the true meaning of the Declaration of Independence. 

"Christianity" is not just a conservative form of it. "The left" are alleged to be anti-Christian and anti-religious. This is a vicious slander.
