The "no compromise" gun rights movement, which advocates against any form of gun control and the absolute right to keep and bear arms, and white Christian nationalism, a cultural framework built on the belief that Christianity should serve as the foundation of the American government, have both recently come to the national political forefront. The connection between these two movements runs deep: white Christian nationalism informs the religious rhetoric of the "no compromise" movement. To understand why this is, the existing scholarship argues that white Christian nationalists advocate against gun control because they believe the Second Amendment is divinely inspired and that gun control does not address what they perceive to be a moral decline in the United States. However, these explanations are insufficient to fully grasp the inherent importance of guns and gun rights to white Christian nationalists. Therefore, I examine the specific roles that guns play in their worldview.
