Like others have said, Christianity and Nationalism are not reconcilable. They are at odds with each other.
I recommend reading The Myth of a Christian Nation by Greg Boyd or Two Kingdoms, Two Loyalties by Perry Bush.
I read Walden in high school circa 1970, it impressed me deeply. I've read it about once a decade since, the latest being this spring. I also recommend Living the good life by the Nearings, an interesting book about the Amish called Plain and Simple by Sue Bender and the story of the Dickerson Sisters called The apples of the Mummy's eye. . Great philosophies on living simply and happily.

Gerald L. Schroeder has several excellent books where he discusses some interesting possibilities in this vein. He just published another one this year called God According to God. I highly recommend it for those interested in looking at religion scientifically.
