George Washington’s Thanksgiving Proclamation

Many of you probably heard the Founding Fathers were not religious, this is whole notion that this nation is a nation of Judeo-Christian, that’s a crock. Our Founding Fathers were a bunch of atheists, they were a bunch of agnostics. You’ve heard this.

Well, I want you to listen to George Washington, the father of our country, the man who made it all possible, his morality is why there is a United States. They wanted him to be king. They offered him despite everything they knew, they thought he was the one man who could be king and not become a tyrant, and he turned ’em down. He said, no way. Goes against everything we fought for. He stood for election, the first president.
