Latitudinarianism? Wow!

Seems to me the terminology, Christian nation, particularly when overtly equated by JC with Saudi Arabia's government construct, means theocracy. Without that context, it may mean theocracy or cultural fascism. That's just my reading, of course.

When faced with sensitivity, justified or not, on the part of others, one has many choices. One of them is to tone down one's language a tad. To me, this expression is rather like the difference between having a "Japanese gardener" or a "gardener who is Japanese." Or a "black maid" vs. a "maid who is black."
