Arguing With Lewis About Christian Nationalism| Doug Wilson

Does the civil magistrate have authority from God to restrict things like blasphemy? Can that be done without Star Chambers? Lewis here calls the idea of “the Christian magistrate” or “godly prince” a disastrous figure. But what is the actual alternative? Should Christians pine away until God answers our urgent prayers in order to give us an ungodly prince? Lewis would far prefer a robber baron, a man whose avarice might sleep sometimes, to a man who is filled to the brim with Sunshine and Uplift, and who tyrannizes over all of us with serenity of heart.
