depicting the new America that will not be Christian Supremacy

Hope and Determination for the New America – Against Christian Supremacy

August 2025, eight months into POTUS 47, it is unclear what the new America will be. Trump is openly ruling as an authoritarian, sowing chaos and corruption, economic uncertainty, and social breakdown. There is a growing list of atrocities afflicting the people and the land. SCOTUS, masked police forces, and most media are doing his will. Evil trickles down from Christian Supremacy, the key enabler and feature of Trump’s regime.

As a populist autocrat, Trump is following the trend set by ‘strong’ men around the world. They use Christian and democratic principles to tear down a liberal democracy and replace it with an illiberal one. Right-wing extremist groups like the Ku Klux Klan and white supremacists associate with illiberal ideologies.  

If you appreciate liberal democracy or love-based Christianity, you are part of the majority of our country. We can do better. Please consider the ‘Bridge to the New America’ that follows. Your response will be appreciated.

The intent of the current regime is nothing new. Since Jesus walked the earth, theology and scripture have been politicized to dominate and control others. The current Christian Supremacy effort was fifty years in the making, and now a tyrannical regime is feverously assuming to close the trap.

What is new today is the ferocity and speed that the regime has harnessed, powered by a perverse new evangelism. Boldly, Christian Supremacy is attempting to build colonies around the country.

Under Christian Supremacy, violence and discrimination become more common and acceptable, even morally righteous. The same for unfair wealth distribution. The theology being created and enforced is dehumanizing to anyone that doesn’t subscribe or meet the criteria. People and democratic rights are threatened and/or simply ‘lost’. The regime contends themselves to be the manifestation of God’s will.

Most Americans do not want the proffered theology (it is not Christianity) nor the stripped-down democracy that is being bundled together and forced upon them.

Christian Supremacy contributes greatly to the demise of the Christian faith. As Christian Supremacy ramped up in the last twenty years, the USA went from about 90% to about 63% Christian. Christian Supremacy generates a lot of rejection and hard-to-defend hatred. Atheistic groups are benefiting. The new America can change the trend.

A most strong defense against autocracy is an informed public. Preachers and resistors of Christian Supremacy need to know and walk the talk. Autocracy works hard to divide people and infect them with misinformation. Believers and supporters must work just as hard to get rid of it. “Business as usual” or a non-stance is serious loss.

It is not a matter of when autocracy gets here, it is being rolled out. The New America turns on whether we the people can get it together before autocracy is insurmountable. So, this implies focus and urgency. We must use precious resources to attack the source of the problem. The tip of the spear cutting through America is Christian Supremacy.

We must develop a plan, communicate it, and work it. So, prayers needed.

In fact, liberal democracy supporters and Christians need a well-defined coalition and initiative behind which we can coalesce.

There are many like-minded people and organizations working to preserve and improve the new America. But, they are splintered and largely ineffectual.

Good news! In Detroit this past week, there is a notable shift in the Catholic Diocese to curb the right-wing push. And, in the legislature, deep in the heart of Texas, James Talarico is showing a strong new voice against Christian Supremacy.

Today, Authentic faith and vibrant democracy are but a mix of hope and dreams. We can and will do better. Have hopes and dreams, and never give up.
