(2.5 Stars)
This book had a lot of information, but went in a direction closer to "What's wrong with Christianity" than why Christian Nationalism is Un-American. I mean, I'm an Atheist, so I agree with both sentiments, but this book was more "preaching to the choir" than it was informative. Plus is was very repetitive, and probably about 1/3rd too long.
That said, the narration was good, the information was good, and I didn't hate it. I'm probably just not the target audience for this book. This book would be good for someone on the fence, or maybe someone unaware what Christian Nationalism even is, or quite possibly someone who does not know how recent the history is for Christian Politics in America actually is.
