520 | |a This article first proposes definitions and raises questions about what it means to be a nation. I then analyze the national imaginary of the United States, and suggest that at its deepest core we find "substitute ultimates" regarding America's sacrificial war-culture. This cultural violence perpetuates destructive consequences, including the phenomena of "U.S. war-culture," and "moral injury" among military servicemembers and veterans. But widespread legitimation of the imaginary largely inhibits citizens from awareness about their own reality. Lastly, I inquire about the role of prophetic public theology to address nationalism, and engage in a thought experiment with an imagined community of diverse partners. | ||
