Christian Democracy is an economically centre-left to
centre-right (largely depending on his opposition), moderately authoritarian and culturally centre-left to right-wing ideology, born out of an affair between
Christian Theocracy and
Liberal Democracy.
Christian Democracy's beliefs largely vary from the country to country, and unlike his father he isn't necessarily Catholic. What usually stays consistent is the belief that the state that works within a
liberal-democratic framework should enforce traditional values of the church.
History
Christian Democracy can be traced back to the philosophical views of Thomas Aquinas and his thoughts on Christian tradition. According to Aquinas human rights are based on natural law and are defined as things that humans would need to survive. For example food is a natural right because without it a human cannot function.
Christian Democracy began to gain more prominence after the French Revolution where French Republicanism and the Catholic Church were hostile towards one another. The Catholic Church was initially in opposition towards liberalism, capitalism, and democracy, as they saw them as destructive towards the traditional family lifestyle, promoting selfishness, and allowing permissive and self-indulgent behavior to thrive.
During the latter half of the 19th century, there were many Catholic political movements which encouraged the Catholic Church to become more involved in modern politics. Many of these movements were united in their opposition to liberal secularism, civil marriage, state controlled education, and separation of church and state. These groups were not entirely against democracy however as they saw democracy as being a politically expedient tool rather than being the best political system. Similar movements were being founded in Protestant countries by more conservative Protestants in reaction to secularization.
After World War II, many Protestant and Catholic political activists helped rebuild Western Europe and established democracy in the war torn continent. Christian Democracy was favored by many because it was seen as a politically neutral and unifying movement separate from the destructive far-right. Christian Democracy was particularly successful in West Germany, where many had come to detest Adolf Hitler's regime yet still agreed with many right wing view points.
Christian Democracy has been embraced by many Catholics in Europe and Latin America as well as by some Protestant and Orthodox Christians. While some Christian Democrat parties have become more secular in recent years, many still support intermediary organizations that can operate between the state and the individual. It is common for Christian Democrat parties to support church operated schools, hospitals, charities and social insurance funds, usually having payroll taxes or social welfare funding these institutions. They may also support their own labor unions that are organized in their own Christian trade unions separate from their own socialist counterparts.

Friends
Distributism - My favorite child.
Paternalistic Conservatism - My more moderately religious brethren and close friend.
Conservatism - I share his social views, though his economics can be a bit wonky.
Liberal Conservatism - These days, we're mostly the same. Well, in Europe at least.
Islamic Democracy - We shall coexist in the belief of God, modernity and democracy! But, come on, Jesus is totally God's son.
Social Capitalism - I will always cherish the European post-war economic miracle of the 1950's. We've both done a good job back then.
Ordo-Liberalism - God bless you for the German economic miracle, also, you made him
what he is now.
Confessionalism - Christian Values are a central part of our government.
Frenemies
Liberalism - While your underlying government system is generally the right one, your social system favors the individual at the expense of the community, and we can't have that in place.
Social Democracy - While your underlying government system is generally in the right place, your social system favours the community at the expense of the individual and we can't have that.
Christian Libertarianism - While your underlying government system and your civic positions generally are the right ones, your social system favors ONLY the individual at the expense of the community. And will you please stop talking about guns, just for a while?
Welfare Chauvinism - He's a conservative too, but a bit too nationalistic, and honestly kind of racist.
Christian Socialism - We must help the poor in our policy, although I'm not sure if abolishing wage labor is necessarily the right way to do it.
Christian Communism - While I appreciate your faith in our Lord, your proposition for the complete removal of property is nightmarish.
Christian Theocracy,
Catholic Theocracy,

State Oriental Orthodoxy &
Protestant Theocracy - I understand that it is normal to have one's religion influence policy, yet I am quite wary of imposing one's religion onto the population. Does Jesus not have the sole authority?
