But can it be taken too far? I'm sure it can. When we start singing to the country as part of our worship of God, then something is surely gone wrong in our priorities in love. I think that within the context of worship, it is best to think of it like what Jesus said about love of money v love of God. It needs to be one or the other. And within worship, it needs to be love for God and no room for love of country.

Perhaps we should then be regularly burning our flag just to prove that we admit that our country is "far from perfect," that the white man is truly evil, and that we Americans are "really free." Now I get it!
And how dare those misguided evangelicals vote their freedoms! Should they even be allowed to vote? Not for them sinful candidates! They can only vote for these sanctimonious virtue-signalers, who prove themselves worthy. Yeah Beto!
