“Bad Faith: Christian Nationalism’s Unholy War on Democracy” is a new and timely documentary that unveils the forces dividing our nation from within.
Part archival chronicle, part exposé, “Bad Faith” investigates the alarming rise of Christian Nationalism. The movement, once on the fringes of Christian conservative thought, has surged to the forefront of American politics, driven by the belief in establishing a theocratic rule that aligns with its interpretation of Christian values.
The movement, acting in league with the Koch Network and other powerful economic interests, seeks to dismantle the federal government, defund public health and education, and roll back the civil and political rights of millions of Americans. The film uncovers the movement's explicit agenda to enshrine white, conservative Christians as the elite governing force at the service of plutocrats.
Through interviews with religious leaders, historians, investigative journalists and political veterans, “Bad Faith” explores how this ideology has skillfully seduced tens of millions, becoming the most formidable political force in the nation.
