Christian Nationalism Displayed At Capitol Riot Sparks Soul-Searching
Some Christian leaders have spoken out to denounce what they saw as the misuse of their faith to justify a violent attack.

WASHINGTON (AP) The Christian imagery and rhetoric on view during this month’s Capitol insurrection are sparking renewed debate about the societal effects of melding Christian faith with an exclusionary breed of nationalism.
The rioters who breached the Capitol on Jan. 6, leading to federal charges against more than 130 people so far, included several people carrying signs with Christian messages, and video showed one man in a fur hat and horns leading others in a prayer inside the Senate chamber. They also included multiple current or former members of the U.S. military or law enforcement, as well as a West Virginia state lawmaker.

One day after the deadly insurrection in Washington, a Pennsylvania school district announced it was suspending a teacher who, the district asserted, âwas involved in the electoral college protest that took place at the United States Capitol Building.â
Three weeks later, Jason Moorehead is fighting to restore his reputation and resume teaching after he says the Allentown School District falsely accused him of being at the Capitol during the siege. The district says Mooreheadâs social media posts about the events of Jan. 6, and not just his presence in Washington that day, are a focus of its probe.
