"to honor Washington and all the other brave patriots who gave their lives for the idea of not only freedom of religion but also freedom from religion."

Im sorry Mike but if you want to enjoy your hate for anything religous America is not the place. Here we have the freedom to be as religious as we want and no fanactical facsist athiest is going to tell us otherwise.

It is amazing to me to see at what leights people will go to disbelieve what is commonly known. George Washington and many of the founding fathers all believed in God, a deliever, a Chistian belief. Now most scholars believe that he was Episcopalian example: http://millercenter.org/academic/americanpresident/washington
Diesm was a new way of thinking during the Enlightenment period of colonial America. It has been said that Thomas Jefferson and Thomas Pain were two that subscribed to that way of thinking. However, I dont think that reading of a Diesm web site will convince anyone that George Washington was a Dies, when their are more facts that prove that he was a believer in a Christian faith.

The accepted real name of the creator in the original Hebrew langauge used by the ancient Israelites is Yahweh; not the english translation of Jehovah. King James Version is a weak politically perverted translation of the original Hebrew and Greek Scriptures. Thomas Jefferson recognized Saul know later as Paul, as a heritic. Those books in the New Testament should not be read or followed. See also: http://www.jesusneverexisted.com, http://www.wyattmuseum.com and http://www.templeinstitute.com

Washington, like many people in colonial America, belonged to the Anglican church and was a vestryman in it. But in early America, particularly in pre-revolutionary America, you had to belong to the dominant church if you wanted to have influence in society, as is illustrated by the following taken from Old Chruches, Ministers and Families of Virginia, by Bishop William Meade, I, p 191. "Even Mr. Jefferson, and George Wythe, who did not conceal their disbelief in Christianity, took their parts in the duties of vestrymen, the one at Williamsburg, the other at Albermarle; for they wished to be men of influence."

To speak of the founders of America as wanting "not only freedom of religion but also freedom from religion" is so far from the truth that the one promoting the idea should be ashamed to post it on a historical web site. Consider the following quote from James Madison:
“It is the duty of every man to render to the Creator such homage and such only as he believes to be acceptable to him. This duty is precedent, both in order of time and in degree of obligation, to the claims of Civil Society. BEFORE ANY MAN CAN BE CONSIDERED AS A MEMBER OF CIVIL SOCIETY, HE MUST BE CONSIDERED AS A SUBJECT OF THE GOVERNOUR OF THE UNIVERSE: And if a member of Civil Society, do it with a saving of his allegiance to the Universal Sovereign…" (emphasis added)

To me this surely sounds a lot more "religiously zealous" than anything I've ever heard out of Washington DC in my lifetime!

If we can only get the religious zealots out of the government and from trying to impose their will on others we would really be doing something to honor Washington and all the other brave patriots who gave their lives for the idea of not only freedom of religion but also freedom from religion.

IT IS GOOD TO SEE THAT WASHINGTON RECOGNIZED A
HIGHER POWER. YAHWEH IS THE JEWISH PRONUN-
CIATION OF JEHOVAH FOUND IN THE KING JAMES
VERSION BIBLE AT PSALM 83:18 AND THREE OTHER
PLACES.
