A recent study indicates that Americans with lower cognitive ability scores tend to be more likely to embrace Christian nationalism. The findings suggest the ideology’s appeal is linked to underlying cognitive resources rather than just educational differences.

        Being a Christian Nationalist goes far beyond holding a mere belief. Even if whatever point you’re trying to make is true, do you really think that “smart people who are not Christian Nationalists” have no distinguishable difference from “Christian Nationalists”?
