I don’t know about the mug, though.

You'd probably feel contaminated.

I could see myself wearing it in certain contexts as a joke, but yeah, I think Christian nationalism is America’s biggest threat.

Christian Americans seem to make more of a deal out their religion than other countries do. Over here in the UK, following a religion is about as big of a deal for a lot of people as having a favourite food or something like that.

It is not the sort of thing you would put on a bumper sticker on a vehicle, or wear on a t-shirt.

Sports is a bigger deal than the religion here in the UK. It is common for people to be publicly passionate about football or 'soccer' as it is described by some Americans and to wear t-shirts with their favourite football player or to wear their favourite team shirt.

I wasn’t really thinking about Christianity with that post but Christian nationalism. It’s extremely powerful and influential but many Christians here don’t buy into it.

Ah yeah, I have heard a bit about it, but I don't have any real world experience of being exposed to any of that.

Boots, levis, belt or suspenders, pearl button shirt, denim vest or light jacket, hat (probably beaver fur), and maybe a bolo tie.

Never ever been a problem for me! Going on a blind date sounds like hours of wondering when it's time to leave.
