“As a former Moscow resident from birth to age 18 (1981-1999), I knew that my parents avoided Christ Church businesses and disapproved of their K-12 school and college. I knew that the church had views that didn’t align with our own, but it seemed like a minor part of the town. Only now, decades later as an adult with an established world view, am I realizing how extreme Doug Wilson and church members are and how scary their strategy is.
Now, as a resident of Florida, I see the parallels that are happening not just in churches, but in our government, public schools, and universities. If you remove the word “Christian” from the description, the curriculum of New St. Andrews College sounds a lot like the description of new majors at the Hamilton Center (established by the Florida legislature with dark money) at the University of Florida. Even though Moscow, Idaho may sound like a small, distant place, the same Christian nationalist playbook is being repeated across the country.”
