George Washington, instead, is toasted with accolades regarding his solid common sense and strength in battle.

God is angry with the church in our days! This is because many denominations have unknowingly drifted into Paganism, Idolatry and Satanism.

The history of the United States is, to a large extent, a history of armed conflict. The nation was first forged in war, a tough fight for independence against one of the world’s largest empires, and that fight would resume less than a generation later with the War of 1812. Then there were constant low-level conflicts with Native Americans as the nation expanded westwards, and occasionally the country engaged in full-scale war against the Sioux, Comanche, and Apache. The country also fought the Mexican-American War, starting in 1846, and the bloody Civil War starting in 1861.
