I entreat you in the most earnest manner to believe in Jesus Christ, for there is no salvation in any other [Acts 4:12]. . . . [i]f you are not reconciled to God through Jesus Christ, if you are not clothed with the spotless robe of His righteousness, you must forever perish.
John Witherspoon, The Works of John Witherspoon (Edinburgh: J. Ogle, 1815), Vol. V, pp. 276, 278, The Absolute Necessity of Salvation Through Christ, January 2, 1758.

Anything written regarding the Founders belief in Christ must be a fraud.

You all are either full of so much hate you can't see straight.

Or you went to publik school and never learned reaing comprehension skills.
I went to PUBLIC schools, Not publik schools and I think I got the better education. I know How to spell, and my READING, not "reaing" comprehension is great. Thank you. You might want to do a little proof reading before you post negative things and misspell the things you put people down for. It's a little Moronic to do so. So many unhappy people out there that really need to look within themselves first. But Hey!, that might be a bit scary for you to do right? I Like Glenn Beck, and It is kinda scary how he makes so much sense too. GO GLENN Go!!!

The only thing the author himself said that was at all related to the book was that promoting it on Glenn's show moved it way up the charts.
Well, obviously, you haven't watched any of his shows, becaause he absolutely has discusse the books in detail, and had the author of "The Real George Washington" on the show, in which they discussed the sources (Wahsington's own writings, and the writings of people who knew him).

The other book also (The title of which slips me at the moment).

You can't watch five minutes and expect to learn anything (if you watched at all — doubtfull).

Please link us the quotes of all those other generals saying these same things.
It has nothing to do with George Washington's personal Christian faith, quotes re which I asked you to supply.

other generals -- Gott mit uns, for one.

I dont watch these things on TV, I read the transcripts. On the show Im referring to, the transcript of which I read and posted a link to in this thread, a Dr Lillebeck was hawking his book The Sacred Fire. Not The Real George Washington. This is from last week. The book you're talking about must be from some other time. And Im sure you're not accusing me of lying, so I'll ask you to read the transcript and see for yourself: they said nothing remotely about the book other than what a great promoter Glenn Beck is.

Doesn't "Anno Domini" mean in the year of our Lord (Jesus Christ)?

So the act of inscribing the year, followed with A.D., be a tacit declaration of Christianity?

Also, it is sometimes specified more fully as Anno Domini Nostri Iesu (Jesu) Christi ("In the Year of Our Lord Jesus Christ").
Is that more than enough proof that a writer who uses A.D. was a Christian?

Beck and his kind should all move to Texas where the schools are rewriting the text books more to their liking anyway.
Our founding fathers must be roll-in over in their graves.
