"But is there a way to connect the dots between support of Christian Nationalism and direct violence?"

Yep, it's called European history.

Christians, acting in the name of Christianity, have spilled a river of blood. There isn't a shred of evidence to support the claim Christianity makes people better. Some of the most mean-spirited, judgmental and intolerant people I have ever known never missed church. Prominent figures in the religious right are some of the most compelling arguments for why religion should never have a place in our secular government. The religious right is fighting a rear-guard action in an effort to accomplish through government and the courts what they have failed to achieve from their pulpits. The idea any religion could be imposed on a country as large and diverse as the United States, with a happy ending, is as dangerous as thinking gets.
