There has been nothing to replace the Quakers and the Unitarians regarding the fundamental pacifism of Christianity. Sumner's iconic speech The True Grandeur of Nations was from the militant pacifism of Unitarians although he wasn't one himself, rather an Emersonian Transcendentalist. This conscientious objection supported by religion in the 60s was targeted and removed as a political force one would assert. MLK and Malcolm were removed as religious leaders. Ali lost his title although he won his case. Quaker Bayard Rustin had spent WWII in prison. The story would be what operations were conducted against liberal denominations to punish their antiwar activities. This would be useful given that the only relationship we see in the media is that religion is a casus bellum and it is for Christianity that we must be militaristic. One development ever since anticommunism is that we are under God if not yet pronounced a militant Christian nation distinguished from Islam. This is consistent with what Michael Hudson views as our fall back into a new feudalism and basically a neo-12th century dark age. Quite different from the Enlightenment era founders generation who were deist.
