Chapter 9 #3
REPUBLICANS WILL DEFEND RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
" To protect religious liberty, Republicans support a new Federal Task Force on fighting anti- Christian bias that will investigate all forms of discrimination, harassment and persecution against Christians in America. "
This is a clear example of Dominionisim, government in the Church. Jesus Christ of Nazareth said that we will be persecuted for His namesake.
Well, I notice you quote this, but don't link to it. This is not from Project 2025
or Agenda 47, but the Republican Party platform. Earlier you referred to Agenda 47 as "the official GOP platform under the Trump Administration" despite it not being the official Republican Party platform--but I thought maybe you were being a bit figurative with that statement. But if you were being literal, you're incorrect, because Agenda 47
isn't the Republican platform.
Agenda 47 is a (rather disorganized) group of pages on Donald Trump's website, and is a separate document entirely from the Republican platform, found
here. This comes from the Republican platform, not Agenda 47.
So already this isn't evidence for Project 2025 or Agenda 47. But, hey, Trump was apparently heavily involved in the writing of the 2024 Republican platform, so let's look at it anyway. You defined Dominionism as "Christian political ideology that advocates for a society governed by Christians and based on their interpretation of biblical law".
What you're pointing to isn't that at all. That's just... defending religious liberty, which is in the first amendment of the Constitution. The fuller quote is:
3. Republicans Will Defend Religious Liberty
We are the defenders of the First Amendment Right to Religious Liberty. It protects the Right not only to Worship according to the dictates of Conscience, but also to act in accordance with those Beliefs, not just in places of Worship, but in everyday life. Our ranks include men and women from every Faith and Tradition, and we respect the Right of every American to follow his or her deeply held Beliefs. To protect Religious Liberty, Republicans support a new Federal Task Force on Fighting Anti-Christian Bias that will investigate all forms of illegal discrimination, harassment, and persecution against Christians in America.
Yikes at that capitalization! That aside, this is simply a statement of religious liberty and declaration of wanting to protect religious freedom. Now, it does put special focus on protecting Christians, but that would be--at worst--religious favoritism, which is still pretty far from the definition you offered of Dominionism.
So I still no evidence of Dominionism in Agenda 47 or Project 2025. Not only does your quote not offer evidence, it isn't even from Agenda 47 or Project 2025 to begin with!
