With apparent Christian Identity' leaning, 2 Ky. churches' websites take on U.S. culture, politics

An open letter to presidential candidate Donald Trump, which was reportedly written by Pastor Mark Downey, was posted last month on the website of a Northern Kentucky church, Kinsman Redeemer Ministries http://kinsmanredeemer.com :

“I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of Christian Identity, but our community of an estimated two million white Christian Americans (has) the common belief that we are the true descendants of the 12 tribes of Israel,” the letter says.

The letter writer agrees with Trump’s call to build a wall on the Mexican border and adds that America needs to deport “however many criminal elements there are that plague our national identity and security in the first phase of deportations.”
