Jared Huffman saw something chillingly close to that vision. Thousands of Christians following self-declared prophets stormed the Capitol. The insurrection should have been a national wake-up call about Christian nationalism. Instead, most Americans and politicians looked away.No Prophets argues that Christian nationalism is now America’s most dangerous political movement. Huffman pulls back the curtain on religious extremists behind the insurrection who have only grown more powerful with Trump’s return. Openly vowing to destroy church-state separation and democracy as we know it, they now work inside the highest levels of government to drive domestic and foreign policy, reshape federal agencies, undermine science and education, and tilt elections. The endgame: an authoritarian theocracy that imposes their religious beliefs by force of law.Drawing on his experiences as a formerly devout Christian and the only Humanist ever to serve in Congress, Huffman maps the movement’s largely hidden landscape—taking readers behind the scenes of the Capitol, exposing the tactics and myths Christian nationalists use to advance their agenda, and showing how America is imperiled by our reluctance to confront threats cloaked in Christianity.But, he argues, it’s not too late. If we muster a broad interfaith coalition grounded in shared commitment to democracy, we can reclaim the public square for everyone—religious and secular—to share on equal terms.No Prophets is a clear-eyed, urgent appeal to defend the secular foundations of democracy.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usWVhERsFk4 - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/washington/saving-democracy-from-christian-nationalism/100001998486395607 - **Event Categories**: sports, art, fine-arts, science-fair, spiritual - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 2 hours - Location: American University School of International Service - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Washington - **state**: DC - **country**: United States - **location**: American University School of International Service - **lat**: 38.9357571 - **long**: -77.0883879 - **full address**: American University School of International Service, 4400 Massachusetts Avenue Northwest, Washington, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Saving Democracy from Christian Nationalism - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/201ea856a6387b2c87b9d5f6712701404279f52cdb0e6012cf64936c3f4affda-rimg-w1200-h675-dc781838-gmir.jpg?v=1787675444 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Saving Democracy from Christian Nationalism being held? - **A:** Saving Democracy from Christian Nationalism takes place on Thu, 24 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Thu, 24 Sep, 2026 at 09:00 pm at American University School of International Service, 4400 Massachusetts Avenue Northwest, Washington, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Saving Democracy from Christian Nationalism? - **A:** Saving Democracy from Christian Nationalism is organized by Humanist Community at American University. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
