George Washington and Deism

by Bob Johnson

Overview

The religious right has an active agenda to turn America into a theocracy. One tactic they use is to lie about America's founders. They twist facts and also blatantly lie about America's founders being Christians who intended the United States to be a Christian nation. One of the leaders of this practice is the pseudo-historian David Barton. Barton came out with a best selling book called The Jefferson Lies in which he gave false information as facts in order to make it appear that Jefferson was a Christian and wanted the US to be a Christian nation. Barton's book was so full of factual errors his Christian publisher had to pull it from book stores. The lies by the religious zealots also extend to George Washington. This informative and well documented eBooklet, George Washington and Deism, shines the light of reason on the reality of Washington's Deistic religious views which were shown more through his actions than his words. This is a great educational tool and a very interesting read!
