<p class="MsoNormal">I appreciate this discussion and an attempt
at trying to make things as accurate as possible. However,
using Snopes as proof of anything is dangerous since they are
very suspect of being biased in some of their publications.
Using alternatives such as <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.truthorfiction.com">www.truthorfiction.com</a>
might provide less biased information. In todays world it is
hard to find out what the real truth really is. I do want to
comment that many of this country’s founding principles are
based on Christian Principles. I sometimes think we confuse
the difference between “ Freedom of Religion” vs “Freedom from
Religion”.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">No problem Cecil, as this is generally
interesting and reasonably accurate although I would be
remiss if I did not point out that there are some
significant factual problems with this. Some are small (like
the layout of the cross) while the most serious is probably
Washington’s prayer. It was never prayer, is misquoted, and
was actually a circular or letter or some such.<br>
<br>
I mention this because I’ve seen it a number of times over
the last 20 years on the Internet every once in a while.
Historically it has been passed around to strengthen the
idea that we are a Christian political system rather than
“religion free” political system.<o:p></o:p></p>
