    George Washington Was a Master of Deception

    I thought this was interesting, particularly in light of the thread (I can't find it right now) where we were discussing if it's ever acceptable for a Christian to lie.

    I introduced the fact that we "lie" all the time in warfare - and referenced the thinking that "it's OK to lie to the enemy".

    Hence, the article George Washington Was a Master of Deception

    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

    Washington was referred to by his own secret code number (711)
    So that is where the stores came from! I bet they originally sold french bread too!

        Maybe he was just expanding a little on Mark 9:41
