Scott Bottoms on Principles & Values

 

 


God is putting his words in my mouth

Bottoms said leaders can be born or made, but the essential factor is that they act on their own convictions rather than figuring out what everyone wants. "God is putting his words in my mouth, so that's why I know I'm taking the right steps," Bottoms said.

Wished Christian church could dictate U.S. policy

During this speech, Bottoms frequently returned to the power of the Christian church, wishing that the church had the power to dictate U.S. policy in accordance with religious teaching. He is far from the only one. This is the core tenet of Christian nationalism, a movement aiming to turn the U.S. into a theocratic government, which some scholars say would violate the intention of the U.S. Constitution's Establishment Clause.
