Beware the copula “and.” Politics and religion. Church and state. What does it mean to bring these into relationship? Are they immiscible? Soluble? In certain respects, but not others? At certain times, but not others? A host of questions to be considered anew. How did conservatives get here? What prompts them today to wonder aloud if they need to rethink the relationship between church and state, between politics and religion?

Kevin Slack has written a remarkable book. War on the American Republic: How Liberalism Became Despotism authoritatively lays out a new line of reasoning that has become popular among young right-wing thinkers. Many leading figures on the so-called “New Right” profess themselves disappointed with the impotence of the conservative movement to date. Some of them have produced manifestos of their own.

In a recent three-week period, the editors at The American Mind published “Contemporary Puritans” and “Stop Hating the Puritans,” the first authored by me, the second by Timon Cline. In the spirit of clarifying differences and finding common ground, I offer the following remarks, addressed to the conservatives among us who conclude that our problems in politics are deeper than politics.

Harvard’s embattled President, Claudine Gay, is out. What comes next? Don’t count on Harvard, or indeed any other prominent college or university, to turn away from the faux-moral framework of identity politics. Identity politics provides its practitioners a framework with which to establish who is pure and who is not, who is saved and who is irredeemably damned—and more importantly, what identity group you must fawn over in order to have your own group curse covered and hidden from view.

It is a strange fact of human life that social movements and institutions we know to be lifeless and rotten within sometimes stumble on long after they have expired, as if everything is fine. Nothing to see here. All is well.

Support for Hamas on U.S. college campuses has not surprised those of us who have witnessed the slow but decisive erosion of liberal thought on the hallowed grounds ostensibly committed to nourishing it.
