We’ll have to ask God after we die.

This reminds me of the three “surprises” you will get when you go to heaven:
1. You don’t see people there that you expected to see there.
2. You see people there that you did not expect to see there.
3. You’re there.

“George Washington sacrificed a lot to win us our freedoms.”

An understatement if I ever saw one.

[Fiddlstix]

YES!

[Ouderkirk]

It was painted by a communist

[Little Ray]

Yes.
Next question?

What does an atheist pray for on their deathbed?

Nothing. Their fervent prayer is that nothing is on the other side.

What does it matter? He was a damn good President and the founding father of our country. If there is a heaven he’ll be there.

Was George Washington Really a Christian?

Matthew 7:16-20*

16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

Which is even more relevant considering the paradoxical situation involving the Cherry Tree Myth.

*7/16-20:

Next week, one of Washington, D.C.’s most iconic landmarks will be transformed into a launching pad for the 363-foot rocket that first brought man to the moon.

As the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum announced in a press release, a full-sized projection of Saturn V—the rocket that sent Apollo 11 into orbit on July 16, 1969—will grace the east face of the Washington Monument from 9:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. on July 16, 17 and 18.

The “once-in-a-lifetime celebration” will continue over the next two nights, July 19 and 20, with a series of 17-minute shows combining full-motion projection-mapping artwork and archival footage to share the story of the Apollo 11 launch and subsequent moon landing.

According to the museum, the free performance, dubbed “Apollo 50: Go for the Moon,” is set to take place at 9:30 p.m., 10:30 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. both Friday and Saturday. The immersive experience will feature full sound, projection screens and a 40-foot-wide recreation of the Kennedy Space Center countdown clock.

Was George Washington Really a Christian?

by their fruits ye shall know them:

[CommerceComet]

Years ago during a Christmas Break, my wife and I took the kids to the homes of Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Jackson, and Washington. Once we completed that trip, the only ex-President whose reputation was enhanced in my opinion was Washington. There is a lot to like about George and it did sound as if he was a pretty faithful Episcopalian.

[metmom]

This is akin to wasting time like trying to figure out how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

There is no answer.

We have bigger fish to fry than wasting time on idle speculations that don’t change anything.

[ontap]

That damn mural was meant to disparage Geo. Washington when it was painted....don't expect these dumb bastards to know that!!!!

[ontap]

Patriotism is the only thing they despise more than Jesus!!!!

[Salvation]

**Was George Washington Really a Christian?**

Some people even say he became a Catholic!

[trebb]

Does it really matter at this juncture what his religion was? We know he believed in an almighty God and acted on those principles.

[elpadre]

George Washington was a devout and faithful Christian, an active member of an Episcopal Church near his home outside of WDC. Many years ago I wrote a college research paper on Washington and there were unusually few faults anyone could find about this man. His humbleness is best explained when you realize the Continental Congress wanted to make him King of the new nation- and he refused.
