Sen. Josh Hawley Calls for Christian Revival, Removal of 'Trans Flag' from Federal Buildings

In a passionate speech, Republican Senator Josh Hawley advocates for the restoration of Christianity as the cornerstone of American culture, urging the elimination of LGBTQ symbols from federal institutions.

Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri has ignited controversy with a fiery address demanding the reinstatement of Christianity as the guiding principle of American society. Delivering a speech at The Faith & Freedom Coalition's Road to Majority Policy Conference, Hawley denounced the "far-left social agenda" and called for the removal of the "trans flag" from federal buildings.

Hawley's oration was met with applause from attendees, signaling a growing divide in American politics over the role of religion in public life. In the wake of Louisiana's recent law requiring public display of the Ten Commandments in classrooms, Hawley argues that Christian values should be infused throughout all aspects of American life, including its educational system.

"We don't need less Christian influence in our society, we don't need less Christian witness in our society, we need more, in every part of government, in every part of society," Hawley declared. "You know what we ought to do? We ought to take the pride flag out of schools and put the Bible back in."

Hawley's vision of Christianity as the bedrock of Americanism is rooted in his belief that it fosters unity rather than division. He contends that the "radical Left" is attempting to erase the country's Christian heritage and replace it with a divisive LGBTQ agenda.

"What is dividing America is their attempt to erase our heritage, to erase the foundation that this country has in, yes, the Bible," Hawley asserted. "Who is dividing America is the radical Left."

Hawley's speech is part of a broader conservative movement to restore Christian influence in American society. He advocates for the appointment of more Christian leaders to positions of power in government and business, arguing that their values would benefit the nation.

"You see all of these corporate CEOs, what are they doing? They're hiring DEI agents, while at the same time they're sending our jobs overseas and hollowing out this country, destroying our jobs, destroying our families," Hawley said. "What would it be like if we had some Christian CEOs who would actually put America first?"

Hawley's call for a Christian revival extends to economic policy as well. He denounced the practice of usury by credit card companies and suggested that Christian principles could guide fair lending practices.

"If we had a little more Christian influence in our government, what we might say is, ‘We’re not gonna let you do that anymore!’" Hawley exclaimed.

Hawley's speech drew criticism from LGBTQ organizations and progressive political groups, who accused him of promoting discrimination and marginalizing minority communities. However, Hawley's supporters defended his remarks as a bold defense of America's Christian heritage and a call for unity in the face of cultural division.

As Hawley seeks re-election to the U.S. Senate in November, his speech is likely to ignite further debate over the role of religion in American public life. The outcome of his campaign will provide insights into the extent to which Christian nationalism is shaping the political landscape in the United States.
