There's much to affirm in this\u003cbr\u003edesire to belong to a people. That means pride in all that is admirable in the\u003cbr\u003enation to which we belong - and repentance for its historic sins. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eA\u003cbr\u003efocus on national identity, \u003c\/b\u003e of\u003cbr\u003ecourse, can lead to darker places. The new nationalists, who in Western\u003cbr\u003ecountries often appeal to the memory of a Christian past, applaud when\u003cbr\u003egovernments fortify borders to keep out people who are fleeing for their lives.\u003cbr\u003e(Needless to say, such actions are contrary to the Christian faith.) Is our\u003cbr\u003eyearning for roots doomed to lead to a heartless politics of exclusion?
