New documents detail inner workings of Society for American Civic Renewal, group with an emphasis on Christian nationalism

New documents have shed light on the origins and inner workings of the shadowy Society for American Civic Renewal (SACR), including methods for judging the beliefs of potential members on topics such as Christian nationalism, and indications that its founders sought inspiration in an apartheid-era South African white men-only group, the Afrikaner-Broederbond.

They also show that Boise State University Professor and Claremont thinktank scholar Scott Yenor tried to coordinate SACR’s activities with other initiatives, including an open letter on “Christian marriage”.

One expert says that one of the new documents – some previously reported in Talking Points Memo – use biblical references that suggest a preparedness for violent struggle against the current “regime”.

The SACR is a secretive far-right men-only organization with an emphasis on Christian nationalism and a desire to open branches across the US.

    I’m obviously not talking about the ones who would want to kill us, but not that it would matter to you or get past your smugness, you’re almost as bad as bad as one of those Christian Nationalists we’re talking about here, you just don’t have the power that they do over us, but if you ever did boy would that slope get really slippery.

    I get it dude, growing up Christian fucked you up mentally, but this topic, just like the world/reality isn’t black and white, there are greys, and that area of grey is usually where innocent people are, people who may be into Jesus or Allah, or whatever but don’t want to force their religion on others, your paranoid view isn’t in line with the world at large. Like is Reverend Raphael Warnock trying to kill us too? There’s quite a few LGBTQ religious folks too that aren’t trying to force their views on anyone, are they trying to kill us too? Because there’s many like them who are our allies in this struggle against white Christian Nationalism.

    But hey who needs enemies when we have friends like yourself, amirite my dude?

      I already told you that I suck and you should get in line with all the other people who agree. Sorry kiddo. Go ahead and try again.

      I get it dude, growing up Christian fucked you up mentally, but this topic, j

      Physically as well and I don’t feel like discussing that.

      and that area of grey is usually where innocent people are, people who may be into Jesus or Allah, or whatever but don’t want to force their religion on others, your paranoid view isn’t in line with the world at large. Like is Reverend Raphael Warnock trying to kill us

      Again. I attack ideas not people. Christianity is a vile religion, that says nothing about people who follow it.

      There’s quite a few LGBTQ religious folks too that aren’t trying to force their views on anyone, are they trying to kill us too?

      Please tell me the name of the LGBT person who advocates that I change my sexuality and will kill me if I don’t.

      You noticed how you made this about me and not about the scripture itself?

      But hey who needs enemies when we have friends like yourself, amirite my dude?

      We are neither.
