Fascism: A Working Definition

Johah Goldberg's supplies this working definition in his new book Liberal Fascism:

Fascism is a religion of the state. It assumes the organic unity of the body politic and longs for a national leader attuned to the will of the people. It is totalitarian in that it views everything as political and holds that any action by the state is justified to achieve the common good. It takes responsibility for all aspects of life, including our health and well-being, and seeks to impose uniformity of thought and action, whether by force or through regulation and social pressure. Everything, including the economy and religion, must be aligned with its objectives. Any rival identity is part of the "problem" and therefore defined as the enemy.
---Liberal Fascism, p. 23.

This is incompatible with Biblical Christianity. Consider the account of Matthew 22:15-22. The Pharisees were quite annoyed with Jesus, and wanted a "wedge issue" to attack Him with. So they devised a clever trap, based on the politics of the day.

Remember, the Jewish people were living under the imperium of Rome. This meant everyone had to pay taxes to an ungodly emperor at the other end of the Mediterranean Sea. It was pretty easy to rile up the nationalistic Hebrews by appealing to their thirst for liberation, and any public figure supporting the Roman occupation would endure the wrath of the people. But on the other hand, reporting someone to the Romans for openly advocating rebellion put them on a short path to a horrible, quick death.

The Pharisees and Herodians were both under the misunderstanding of Jesus's mission. They all thought His purpose was to bring divine retribution and restore justice on Earth. But Jesus was trying to do something completely different -- he was trying to reconcile people with God. That didn't have anything at all to do with politics.

(v. 18) But Jesus, knowing their evil intent, said, "You hypocrites, why are you trying to trap me? (v. 19) Show me the coin used for paying the tax." They brought him a denarius, (v. 20) and he asked them, "Whose portrait is this? And whose inscription?" (v. 21) "Caesar's," they replied.
Then he said to them, "Give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's." (v. 22) When they heard this, they were amazed. So they left him and went away.

Government is not the true path to happiness and virtue. Instead, it is merely a means to and end. Legitimate government recognizes natural rights like "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness", and is instituted merely "to secure these rights."
