Religious Nationalism

Strongly agree

Increase

Religious nationalism often emphasizes the importance of a strong military to protect and advance the nation's religious and cultural values. For example, Iran's Islamic Republic has consistently increased its military spending to protect its Islamic values and counter perceived threats from other nations. However, the score is not a full 5 because some religious nationalists may prioritize domestic issues over military spending.

Agree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

Some religious nationalists may support increasing military spending but recognize the need for fiscal responsibility. They might argue that a strong military is essential for protecting the nation's religious and cultural values, but it should not come at the expense of economic stability. For example, religious nationalists in countries facing significant budget deficits may prioritize reducing the deficit before increasing military spending.

Slightly agree

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

Some religious nationalists may be satisfied with the current level of military spending if they believe it is sufficient to protect their nation's religious and cultural values. However, this position would likely depend on the specific context and perceived threats facing the nation. For example, religious nationalists in a country with a relatively stable security situation may be more likely to support maintaining current spending levels.

Disagree

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

Religious nationalists typically prioritize their nation's sovereignty and unique religious and cultural identity, which may make them less likely to support a supranational military defense system. They may view such a system as a threat to their nation's autonomy and ability to protect its religious and cultural values independently. However, the score is not a full -5 because some religious nationalists may see the benefits of regional cooperation in certain circumstances, such as countering a common threat.

Strongly disagree

Decrease

Religious nationalists generally view a strong military as essential for protecting their nation's religious and cultural identity. Decreasing military spending would likely be seen as weakening the nation's ability to defend itself and its values. For example, Hindu nationalists in India have supported increased military spending to counter perceived threats from neighboring countries. However, the score is not a full -5 because some religious nationalists may prioritize domestic issues over military spending.
