...the Anglican Church has been geared towards putting the kibosh on movements such as Christian Nationalism. The experience of the protectorate of Oliver Cromwell saw to that.

And an obvious English rebuttal to what gets terms "Christian Nationalism" is to point out that when it was tried in England following the English Civil War, it was so unpopular that people were desperate to restore the Monarchy as soon as Cromwell died!
