Religious group challenges 'traditional' history
Presidents’ Day is when many Americans honor the country’s past commanders-in-chief.

At the Christian Heritage Center in Fishersville, Thomas Jefferson was not on the list of honorees Monday....

...Each actor cited examples to suggest Jefferson was the enemy of Christians and that Washington was a model Christian, who walked the walk - even begging forgiveness from God when his prayers were not fervent enough.

“Jefferson came disguised as an angel of light by appealing to reason instead of faith - to works instead of the cross,” Humphries said.

“His purpose … was taught by Voltaire, Locke, Paine and Priestly. They become … wolves in sheep’s clothing,” he said.

Campbell finished the service by bringing the crowd to its feet and striking up “God Bless America.” He reminded the crowd that the current president, George W. Bush, has Jesus Christ as Lord and master and is a good example to today’s young people.
