Good Lord, Christian Nancy French, wife of David, is a small sea of confusion

French breakfast, or English?

She clearly does not understand C.S. Lewis, but no matter. The Christians don't read WaPo anyway.



The term “nationalism” carries with it ominous echoes of blood and soil, unsuitable for a nation composed of people from many different ethnicities and many different soils. ... As C.S. Lewis wrote in The Four Loves, patriotism asks “only to be let alone. It becomes militant only to protect what it loves. In any mind that has a pennyworth of imagination it produces a good attitude towards foreigners. How can I love my home without coming to realise that other men, no less rightly, love theirs? Once you have realised that Frenchmen like cafe complet just as we like bacon and eggs — why good luck to them and let them have it. The last thing we want is to make everywhere else just like our own home. It would not be home unless it were different.” ... This Sunday, it is great for Christians to show gratitude for a country that respects our liberty, but we should also extend incredible love and courtesy to people who differ from us.

Yeah, in their own countries. Yes, leave us alone! Don't come here and try to make this like your old home. If you come here you adopt our ways, our loves, our values. Otherwise, it's not really your home. Get out! This is our home. We speak English, honor the Christian God, revere the original constitution and the English common law, require self-sufficiency and self-restraint, reward individual merit, punish individual misconduct, and practice equality before the law (well, unless you're a Democrat).

She literally says in closing she's in the nation, but not of it.

No kidding.
