Politically christian 

A person that identifies themselves as a Christian but doesn’t actually follow Jesus’s teachings of love, compassion or helping those in need, instead only as a way to justify their far-right political beliefs. These political beliefs can be argued to go directly against many of Jesus’s teachings. They often advocate for or practice homophobia, patriarchy and racism ”in the name of god”.
