Religious Nationalism

Wiki is in the process of importing stuff

Please be patient

"A nation without a religion - that is like a man without breath."

Religious Nationalism is an ideology that incorporates religion into nationalism. It seeks to use a shared religion to unite people under a national identity. It typically holds reactionary and intolerant views towards members of other religions, but not always. Religious nationalism is compatible with practically any religion, including File:Hind.png Hinduism, File:Christy.png Christianity, File:Muslim 2.png Islam, File:JewTheo.png Judaism, File:Bud.png Buddhism, etc.

History and Variants

[edit]

Ideologically driven religious nationalism may not necessarily be directed against other religions but may be formulated in response to modernity and, in particular, as secular. The imbalance between religious and political aspects and, by appealing to national feelings, such as Islamic identity, as has often been the case in File:Cball-Pakistan.png Pakistan and File:Cball-Indonesia.png Indonesia, can lead to regional tensions.

In general, many types of nationalism carry religious aspects, but as a marker of group identity, not as an intrinsic motivation for nationalist claims.

File:ChristNat.png Christian Nationalism

[edit]

Christian nationalists are more focused on domestic politics, such as passing laws that reflect their view of Christianity. Characteristic radical forms of religious or church nationalism appeared on the political field in various European countries, especially during the interwar period in the first half of the 20th century.

In Europe, one of the most radical forms of Christian religious nationalism was Christoslavism, the belief that the File:PanSlav.png Slavs can be exclusively Christians, and if they abandon this religion, they cease to be Slavs.Christoslavism was used as an ideological justification for the persecution (as well as eventual genocide) of File:Cball-BosniaHerzegovina.png Bosniaks during the Yugoslav wars.

In File:Cball-Russia.png Russia, it is characterized by a common belonging to Orthodoxy. Many Russian File:Neonazi ball.png neo-Nazi movements, such as File:OrthFash.png Russian National Unity, are calling for an increased role for the File:Orth.png Russian Orthodox Church.

File:Fuente.png Nicholas J. Fuentes is an American File:Whitesup.png white nationalist political commentator, and live streamer, whose followers are referred to as "Groypers". The Groypers are extremely conservative and critical of more mainstream conservative organizations, which they believe to be insufficiently nationalist and pro-white. The group opposes File:Multicult.png immigration, File:Zio.png Zionism, File:World.png Globalism, File:Antiporn.png pornography, File:AntiAntiAbortion.png abortion, File:Fem.png Feminism, File:Gay.png LGBT+ rights, and welcoming File:Hcon.png LGBT+ conservatives in the File:RepubUS.png Republican Party. In the fall of 2019, popular political commentator Charlie Kirk launched a college speaking tour with Turning Point USA titled "Culture War," featuring himself alongside such guests as File:RandPaul.png Senator Rand Paul, File:Trumpism.png Donald Trump Jr., Kimberly Guilfoyle, Lara Trump, and Congressman Dan Crenshaw. In retaliation for the firing of St. Clair and the Politicon incident, Fuentes subsequently began organizing a social media campaign asking his followers to go to Kirk's events and ask provocative and controversial leading questions regarding his stances on File:Multicult.png immigration, File:Zio.png Israel, and File:Gay.png LGBT rights during the question-and-answer sessions, for the purpose of exposing Kirk as a "fake conservative". In August 2024, Fuentes would announce a second "Groyper War" against the File:Trumpism.png Trump campaign after multiple polls showed that File:Harris.png Kamala Harris was ahead of Trump. Fuentes would release tweets criticizing Trump's File:Necon.png neoconservative stances on File:Cball-Iran.png Iran, and would release multiple tweets criticizing Trump's VP candidate, File:Vance.png J.D. Vance.

File:Christianright.png Christian Right

[edit]

The Christian right, or File:Christian Conservatism.png Christian Conservatism, is a political coalition of factions that are characterized by their strong support of File:Trad.png Traditionalism, File:Christy.png Christian Ethics, and File:Natcon.png National Conservatism. Christian conservatives seek to influence politics and public policy with their interpretation of the teachings of Christianity.

In the United States, the Christian right is an informal coalition formed around a core of largely conservative evangelical File:ProtTheo.png Protestants and File:Catheo.png Roman Catholics. The Christian right draws additional support from other politically conservative Christians, such as File:Orth.png Orthodox Christians and File:Theodemocracy.png Latter Day Saints (Mormons). The movement has its roots in American politics going back as far as the 1940s; it has been especially influential since the 1970s. Its influence draws from grassroots activism as well as from a focus on social issues and the ability to motivate the electorate around those issues.

The Christian right is notable for advancing socially conservative positions on issues such as support for school prayer, intelligent design, temperance and Sunday Sabbatarianism, as well as opposition to embryonic stem cell research, separation of church and state, File:Gay.png LGBT+ rights, sex education, File:AntiAntiAbortion.png abortion, and File:Antiporn.png pornography.

File:Cultchrist.png Cultural Christianity

[edit]

Cultural Christianity is a form of secularism that adheres to Christian values and appreciates Christian culture while being nontheistic. It's also referred to as Christian atheism or Christian agnosticism. This kind of identification may be due to various factors, such as family background, personal experiences, and the social and cultural environment in which they grew up.

National Catholicism was part of File:Franco.png Francoism, it emphasized File:Catheo.png Church-State Unity. In wider sense, the name is applied to movements mixing File:Nation.png nationalism with Catholicism, thus being a sub-group of Christian Nationalism. The idea most often appears in Catholic countries, with its supporters often highlighting religion's role in country's history as well as portray it as important force uniting the nation.

As for theological justification of the view, National Catholics often point out the Fourth Commandment ("Honour thy father and thy mother."), stating that it creates order of love, meaning that while one has to love everyone, they can love their nation more than others and help it before helping the others.

National Catholicism was integral part of File:Salazar.png Salazar's as well as File:AusFash.png Dollfuß's regime. In 20s it also became element of File:EndecjaPix.png National Democracy and its more radical offspring - File:PolFal.png National Radicalism. In Americas National Catholic ideas influenced many movements like: File:Nacionalismo.png Nacionalismo and File:Integralismf.png Brazilian Integralism (though many of them are also categorized as File:Cathfash.png Clerical Fascist).

Nowadays, National Catholicism can be found in contemporary File:Integral Nationalism.png Action Française and various File:PostFrancoism.png neo-Francoist movements. In Poland, groups like File:Nop.png National Revival of Poland use slogans such as "Wielka Polska Katolicka (Great Catholic Poland) and protest (often violently) against the legalization of File:Gay.png same-sex marriage and abortion.

File:IslamNat.png Islamic Nationalism

[edit]

For a variant applied to File:Cball-Indonesia.png Indonesia see: File:Panc.png Pancasila

According to the two-nation theory, File:Cball-Pakistan.png Pakistani nationalism is very closely related to the Muslim heritage, the religion of Islam and Pan-Islamism. It is also associated with awareness as well as the expression of religious and ethnic influences that help shape national identity.

The File:Cball-Iran.png Iranian Revolution marks the beginning of File:ShiaNat.png Shia and Persian nationalism. File:Khomenewicon.png Ayatollah Khomeini's anti-American, anti-communist and anti-Zionist views attract several European far-right movements (notably revolutionary nationalists) but worry the international community.

Many File:RelNat.png religious nationalist groups in the Middle East are supported by File:Cball-Iran.png Iran, in order to prevent File:Zio.png Israel from establishing a strong dominance in the region.

File:Hamas.png Hamas is now a strong ally of File:Cball-Iran.png Iran against File:Zio.png Israel, although they have clashed in the past during Syrian Civil War and Yemeni Civil War. File:Muslim 2.png PIJ is also one of the leading File:RelNat.png religious nationalist groups in cooperation with File:Cball-Iran.png Iran. File:Cball-Saudi.png Saudi Arabia has supported some alternative groups like File:Cball-FSA.png FSA, as part of its proxy war with File:Cball-Iran.png Iran.

Cultural Islam is a form of secularism that adheres to Islamic values and appreciates Islamic culture while being nontheistic. It's also referred to as Islamic atheism or Islamic agnosticism. This kind of identification may be due to various factors, such as family background, personal experiences, and the social and cultural environment in which they grew up.

Millî Görüş (meaning National Vision) is an Islamist socio-political movement inspired by former prime minister of Turkey, Necmettin Erbakan. It advocates that Turkey can develop with its own human and economic power by File:Protect.png protecting its core values, File:Muslim 2.png trust in God and rivaling the West. He wants to eliminate interest rates (Because it's haram.) and create a economy based on a Islamic concept of Sadaqah.

The ideology of the movement is currently adopted by File:TurkiyeRefah.png New Welfare Party and File:Saadet.png Felicity Party. File:Erdoğanism.png Justice and Development Party and people such as Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Abdullah Gül have roots in this movement.

File:MuslimBrotherhood.png Muslim Brotherhood

[edit]

The Society of the Muslim Brothers, is a transnational Sunni Islamist organization founded in File:Cball-Egypt.png Egypt by Islamic scholar and schoolteacher Hassan al-Banna in 1928. Al-Banna's teachings spread far beyond File:Cball-Egypt.png Egypt, influencing today various Islamist movements from charitable organizations to political parties.

Initially, as a Pan-Islamic, religious, and social movement, it preached Islam in Egypt, taught the illiterate, and set up hospitals and business enterprises. It later advanced into the political arena, aiming to end British colonial control of Egypt. The movement's self-stated aim is the establishment of a state ruled by sharia law–its most famous slogan is "Islam is the solution". Charity is a major aspect of its work.

Today, the primary state backers of the Muslim Brotherhood are Qatar and the AKP-ruling Turkey. As of 2015, it is considered a terrorist organization by the governments of Bahrain, Egypt, Russia, Syria, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

File:HinduNat.png Hindu Nationalism

[edit]

File:PagNat.png Pagan Nationalism

[edit]

Paganism resurfaces as a topic of fascination in 18th to 19th-century Romanticism, in particular in the context of the literary Viking revivals, which portrayed historical Celtic, Slavic and Germanic polytheists as noble savages. Romanticist interest in non-classical antiquity coincided with the rise of Romantic nationalism and the rise of the nation state in the context of the 1848 revolutions, leading to the creation of national epics and national myths for the various newly formed states. Pagan or folkloric topics were also common in the musical nationalism of the period. Germanic occultism and neopaganism emerged in the early 20th Century and became influential, with beliefs such as Ariosophy, combining with the far-right Völkisch movement which eventually culminated in Nazism. Post-WWII continuations of similar beliefs have given rise to the Wotansvolk, a white nationalist neopagan movement, in the late 20th Century.

File:BuddNat.png Buddhist Nationalism

[edit]

In the context of File:Cball-Myanmar.png Myanmar’s political opening since March 2011, Buddhist activism has made headlines over the past two years due to outbreaks of communal violence across the country marked by religious differences, notably anti-Muslim, that threaten to derail Myanmar’s once-promising transition. Many see a connection between these violent episodes and the rise of new Buddhist networks and organizations, including the 969 movement and the Patriotic Association of Myanmar. [70]

Sinhalese Buddhist nationalism is influenced by Sinhalese Buddhist mytho-history that was deployed by monks and politicians in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries to assert that File:Cball-SriLanka.png Sri Lanka is the designated sanctuary for Theravada Buddhism, belongs to Sinhalese Buddhists, and Tamils and others live there only due to Sinhalese Buddhist sufferance. This ideology has enabled majority superordination, minority subordination, and a separatist war waged by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE). [71]

File:Relzion.png Jewish Nationalism

[edit]

Main article: File:Relzion.png Religious Zionism

File:Natmyst.png National Mysticism

[edit]

National Mysticism is a File:Nation.png nationalist ideology which has a "mystical" view of the nation. It sees the nation as a "higher being" and it is given a God-like status. This concept has its origins in the beliefs of File:Fichteanism.png Johann Gottlieb Fichte, but similar viewpoints can also be found in certain pre-modern civilizations. The ideology places strong emphasis on the national mythos, sometimes even including File:Pseudohistory.png Pseudo-Historic ideas.

  30. 30.0 30.1 30.2 30.3 30.4 30.5 30.6 "Our founders would never have imagined that our once great country founded by Christians specifically for the freedom to exercise the Christian faith… could so quickly degenerate into a humanistic, hedonistic, multicultural, globalistic, baby murdering, child tranzing, egalitarian hellscape.
  31. Abortion is child sacrifice.
  32. "Criminalize abortion by giving the death penalty to anyone who, with malice and forethought, murders, or helps to murder a baby in the womb, and abortion will be nearly completely eradicated in this country over night."

  36. 36.0 36.1 America should be mostly white. There are many reasons for this, but here's one. Historically, large-scale demographic replacement is ALWAYS accompanied by violence. Lots of violence. America was founded as an anglo-protestant project. This is good. In a Western world that has grown to hate its own heritage, these things need to be said out loud. A lot.
  37. "So go vote for Trump. Oppose tyranny. Trust God. And walk in faith.
  38. As a child, Pope Benedict XVI was a member of the Hitler Youth when he was still Joseph Alois Ratzinger
  39. 39.0 39.1 America is not merely an "idea" or a "proposition." It is a real nation, founded by a specific people—European Christians—with a distinct culture, history, and lineage. To honor our father and mother is to honor our forefathers and the heritage they bequeathed to us. We reject the modern lie that demands we erase our history or replace our population. A nation that forgets its fathers will be forgotten by its children.
  40. 40.0 40.1 40.2 America was founded as—and remained for nearly two centuries—an overwhelmingly European Christian nation. The deliberate demographic transformation of America is not a conspiracy theory. It is documented policy, and it is destroying the nation our ancestors built. The Great Replacement is real. And it was done to you on purpose.
  41. 41.0 41.1 Abortion: The shedding of innocent blood, the murder of our children, the sacrifice of the unborn to the gods of convenience and feminism.
  42. Cultural Marxism subjects every institution, tradition, and belief to relentless criticism until nothing is left standing. Marriage, family, borders, Christianity, Western philosophy—all are attacked as tools of oppression. The goal is not reform but destruction, clearing the ground for revolution. We reject Cultural Marxism entirely. We affirm that Western civilization, built on Christian foundations, is the greatest in human history. Our traditions are worth preserving, our ancestors worth honoring, and our faith worth defending.
  43. Consumer capitalism has reduced you to an economic unit whose only purpose is to buy things you don't need with money you don't have to impress people you don't like.
  44. We must turn away from the idolatry of the ballot box and return to the unshakeable foundation of Christ's Lordship. A nation is not saved by a majority vote, but by obedience to the King of Kings.
  45. Egalitarianism is the foundational lie of modernity: the belief that all people are equal in ability and all outcomes should be equal. Any disparity is evidence of injustice requiring government intervention. This ideology contradicts both Scripture and observable reality.
  46. Modern feminism has taught generations of women that motherhood is oppression and true fulfillment comes only through career achievement and economic independence from men. The results: plummeting birth rates, epidemic female unhappiness, and millions of children raised in broken homes.
  47. 47.0 47.1 Sexual Perversion: Sodomy, transgenderism, pornography, and all forms of sexual degeneracy that mock God's design for marriage and the family.
  48. Liberalism in all its forms—political, economic, theological, and cultural—is incompatible with Christian Nationalism. We are not reforming liberalism. We are replacing it.
  49. 49.0 49.1 We reject libertarian anti-statism. The civil magistrate is God's servant, ordained to wield the sword for justice. We will not be lectured about "freedom" by those who would allow our nation to be destroyed in the name of radical individualism. A Christian nation requires a Christian state—strong, just, and unashamed to punish evil and defend the good.
