Social Christian Party

• The Brazilian Social Christian Party, known in Portuguese as Partido Social Cristão (PSC), is a political party in Brazil that blends aspects of social conservatism with Christian ethics and principles. Founded in the late 20th century, the party has evolved over time, but it consistently emphasizes the importance of traditional family values, the sanctity of life, and the role of Christian faith in shaping public policy and societal norms.
  
  The PSC advocates for policies that reflect its commitment to social conservatism, including opposition to abortion, same-sex marriage, and the legalization of drugs, aligning with its members' interpretation of Christian teachings. The party also supports initiatives aimed at improving social welfare, but through the lens of promoting family unity and community support rather than extensive government intervention.
  
  Economically, while the party's stance has varied over time, it generally promotes a mixed economy that balances free-market principles with the need for social programs to assist the less fortunate. The PSC's approach to governance is characterized by an emphasis on ethical leadership and the belief that political actions should be guided by moral convictions rooted in Christian faith.
  
  The PSC values national sovereignty, the defense of Brazil's cultural and religious heritage, and the promotion of peace, justice, and solidarity both within Brazil and in its international relations. Despite its specific ideological stance, the party aims to appeal to a broad segment of the Brazilian population by addressing common concerns related to family, social welfare, and national identity through a Christian conservative lens.
