> What I see there that is another matter of concern is the way that we are expected to just know that saying “Christians as a political group” **must** to default to mean _“the right-wing political factions self-described as Christian Conservatives”_ . I got that from context but the way it was written opened up the _what do you mean, “Christians”_ line of refutation. For which I lay blame at the feet of those vocal RW factions and the way they have monopolized the discourse for 40 years to appropriate the name, but I see no need to surrender it.

Sorry, I’ll try to be clearer. But I as you say, isn’t that the fault of those political factions appropriating the terms?
