Hillary Clinton Says Young People Are Leaving Church Because Christianity Is ‘Judgmental and Alienating’

 

Earlier in their discussion, Clinton and Barber talked about the Black Lives Matter movement. The 2016 presidential candidate argued the three-word phrase is a “theological statement” because “Jesus and justice are the same thing.”

 

Clinton went on to claim Republicans have tried to co-opt Christianity.

 

“When you think about the very deliberate, concerted effort by one political party to basically try to own Christianity, and it overlooks the role of the African-American church, it overlooks, as you say, a lot of theology, a lot of history,” she said. “It also overlooks this moment in time. ‘Black Lives Matter,’ I view as, you know, very profoundly a theological statement.”

 

Barber explained that the U.S. once had a theology of “slaveholder religion” but has also espoused the “religion of the abolitionist,” which he linked to today’s Black Lives Matter movement.
