Wow! Shorten the quote and change a few things and you can make anyone believe it's true.
The real quote:

“The government of the United States is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religion” GW


In the chain of human events, the birthday of the nation is indissolubly linked with the birthday of the Savior. The Declaration of Independence laid the cornerstone of human government upon the first precepts of Christianity.
John Quincy Adams


Having undertaken, for the Glory of God, and advancements of the Christian faith and honor of our King and Country, a voyage to plant the first colony in the Northern parts of Virginia.  mayflower compact

A GW Quote for you, “It is better to offer no excuse than a bad one.”

I have big white gaps in mine. What am I missing above?

By the way thanks for all the birthday greetings. That was my third birthday in China.  I had a great day and having found a great new apartment we paid  the deposit signed the initial contracts and will be moving in after 1st August.

Strange system, we move in then we get another 28 days to pay the balance.

All things are going well in the bright New World.
