More Memorial Day Lies

Some of the lies on Memorial Day weekend are not about the troops defending our freedoms. In making the case that most of the Founding Fathers were real Christians and not just deists (like it really matters), I was referred today to Washington’s Farewell Address of 1796. I decided to check it out and here is what I found.

The address contains 6,087 words. The words Father, God, Jesus, Christ, Lord, and Creator do not even appear one time. Now, this does not mean that Washington was not a real Christian. However, it does mean that churches lie on Memorial Day about all kinds of things besides the troops defending our freedoms.
