Damian Michael, an Alt-Right Christian author and apologist, has published a series of theses introducing what can best be called Alt-Christianity. Michael points out that just as the ineffectiveness and defeatism of mainstream conservatism has resulted in the rise of the Alt-Right, the same can be said of mainstream Christianity, which he notes has “become more liberal, more feminized, more Churchian, and entirely less Christian.”
Thus he introduces Alt-Christianity as an alternative to the cultural Marxism promoted in the churches today. Michael describes Alt-Christianity as “a means by which orthodox Christianity could be revived amongst men in the West.” Some of the characteristics of Alt-Christianity identified by Michael include:
• mere (i.e. Nicene) Christianity, which is traditionalist and right-leaning (Thesis 1)
• opposition to progressivism, materialism and feminism (Thesis 2)
• being offensive in nature (Thesis 3)
• anti-egalitarianism (Thesis 6)
• holding Christianity as a key pillar of Western civilization (Thesis 7)
• nationalism (Thesis 9)
• seeing the combination of ethnicity and religion is the catalyst for culture (Thesis 11)
• opposition to the separation of church and state (Thesis 14)
• strength, masculinity, and boldness (Thesis 20)
There is nothing in Michael’s brilliant list of theses to which a Kinist and Theonomist should necessarily object. Together with other identitarian Christians, we can embrace the label of Alt-Christian as an interdenominational umbrella term for the contemporary right-wing and nationalist Christian resistance to destructive cultural Marxism and modernism within the Western church and Western society.
