Which group of people feel that they are fairly close to being the person they ought to be? It's non-religious people over 55. Interesting to contemplate why this would be the case.

MILWAUKEE — Commissioners to the 227th General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) voted overwhelmingly to declare White Christian nationalism and similar ideologies “a theological error” incompatible with the teachings of Jesus Christ, advancing a proposed constitutional amendment that would add that language to the denomination’s Book of Order.

The assembly also approved a denomination-wide policy statement condemning White Christian nationalism and directed church leaders to expand public opposition to the movement through ecumenical partnerships and public witness.

By a vote of 458-18, commissioners approved RUS-01, which asks the denomination’s 164 presbyteries to ratify new Book of Order language affirming the church’s commitment to justice, peace, mercy and human dignity while rejecting “any ideology that seeks to establish Christianity as a privileged or dominant force through the power of the state, or that conflates religious identity with national, racial, or ethnic supremacy.”
