“It has pleased the Providence of the first Cause, the Universal Cause, that Abraham should give religion not only to Hebrews but to Christians and Mahomitans, the greatest part of the modern civilized world.”
— John Adams to M.M. Noah, July 31, 1818.

Sounds like one of them EVIL Deists to me.
Still, John Adams' real problem was he was obnoxious and disliked.
Yep, but you won't get Texas to believe that!

Ken, I don't want to bring this up, but I've heard that John Adams wasn't even born in the United States. I mean, where is his birth certificate?
