Notwithstanding fact, no amount of words shall ever persuade a mind preeminently concluded. Joe’s prejudicial liberty, reconciled the now impotent Treaty of Tripoli’s 11th article with the words of Washington. Not concurring with such ‘sagacious’ reporting, is history preserved in the Library of Congress bearing witness of Washington’s character (and prayers to Jesus Christ and the Almighty Glorious Father ). One could methodically and accurately ascertain, despite any misrepresented quote, that the United States was founded upon Justice by men morally educated (dare I write some sanctified) in the disciplines of Religion and convinced of a peaceable assembly of those religions established by the adoption of the First Amendment. The widely celebrated day of fasting and prayer was by authority of the several states and signed by Washington in 1789. As vivid as my imagination can be, my brain cannot conceptualize this as a cover up to Washington’s mastermind plot to alleviate children from the burden of prayer in school , or kill them prior to birth, or Hugo Black’s great mythical wall. Unfortunately, death is often a tidy veneer exploited by the living to easily judge the dead. While Washington may not have been able to say, “Facta, non verba,” he certainly did say “Deeds, not words!” and petitioned Jesus Christ on many occasion for the strength needed to accomplish those deeds. Whether Washington’s personal Faith and political life elevated one religion over another, well, let’s just leave that in the Hands to whom he prayed.
