David talks to Georgetown professor and Bush administration alum Paul Miller about Paul’s new book, The Religion of American Greatness: What’s Wrong With Christian Nationalism. Paul defines Christian nationalism, discusses what’s wrong with it theologically, what’s wrong with it politically, and how it invariably leads to conflict and illiberalism. They also discuss Christian underrepresentation in the academy and other elite spaces, including its causes and consequences.
