I'm just curious what y'all think about that aspect of your identity. What's it based on? What are its limits?

Actual conservative here. To me it mostly means a defense of the essential culture and values of Christendom, AKA Western civilization.

Christendom

Yes? Well specifically protestant if you don't consider protestants to be Christianity which I know some catholics do.

Theres seperation between church and state, but that comes from Christianity, and a lot of the other constitutional values come from Christianity.
