Rising Christian nationalism: a threat to us all

The most prominent one being Prof Alice Roberts. You'd think someone qualified in biological and environmental anthropology would know that humans can't change sex. Which just goes to show that it's all about opinion, and not fact.

I can't see it.
Here and now we have dark forces of the left pushing laws against trans conversion therapy. Liberalising surragacy and prostitution [sex work is real work.]
Women will have to unite and fight our corner whoever gains power.

Christian Nationalism is an indirect threat here - they don't have the cultural clout that they do in America because there just isn't that fervent Christian population base, but there's plenty of evidence they are funding groups that are pushing back against women's rights. Particularly on the bodily autonomy front - if Reform were to get in at the next election (and I honestly don't know how likely that is), you can bet such groups will be trying to curry favour with them to push their agenda here.

I don't see Reform leading with an 'Abortion makes Jesus sad' line, but I can certainly see them taking money from these people and using a 'Selfish career women aren't having enough babies' angle to try to justify curtailing bodily autonomy to at least some degree.

Lol I doubt most of the people on that March have seen the inside of a church since they were babies. If they did they would see that it's Black Christians and a smattering of pensioners keeping the places going.

I don't see this as cause for alarm. Humanists UK are full on TWAW. It's another organisation I can't take seriously. Their coverage of the march is hysterical. A resurgent Christianity is the least of our worries.

Humanists have destroyed any credibility I may have previously afforded them.

In terms of rights:

On the LGB side - There has been some rhetoric about people being allowed to refuse service to LGB people and to discriminate in employment against LGB people on the basis of the service provider’s or employer’s religious belief, to bar LGB people from adopting. Also, effectively, bringing back clause 28.

On the women’s rights side - abortion is the big one, but also some rhetoric about husband’s having a right to medical information about a wife’s pregnancy and medical treatment while pregnant, it being criminal not to follow lifestyle rules (not smoking, drinking, etc) while pregnant, rhetoric against state financial support for one parent families, rhetoric about making divorce harder, rhetoric against rape in marriage being criminal, rhetoric against the current criminal law on domestic abuse - in particular some aspects of coercion and financial abuse.

A lot, but not all, of this is pretty fringe at the moment. But if some comes in, the rest gains more of a foothold.

I think the bigger threat to women, initially, if religious nationalism gains power, is the change to discourse and social norms. That would make it harder for women to live in a way that wasn’t in keeping with social expectations, even if they legally had the rights to do so.

Quite. I get fed up with people looking at America and transposing their politics on to us. We are not America.

There's nothing to worry about in the UK when you have the useless Church of England in control!

Yes Humanist UK it is a bit of a worry that dualist beliefs that have no basis in science have increasingly dictated policy in government and institutions...

I wouldn’t be surprised if same sex marriage was one

[Christian Nationalism] advocates very conservative Christian social policies, such as rolling back the human rights of LGBT+ people
What human rights of the alphabet people are being threatened?
