  1. 1. As you undoubtedly know, some Anglicans would not agree that they're members of a Protestant church. 2. Washington's Anglicanism sounds pretty standard for the 18th century upper class; what Methodists and revivalists were reacting against. 3. "Usable past": yeah, sure, everyone gets to have their own interpretations, but they shouldn't try to have their own facts. All societies live by myths, but the US sounds at times as though it's creating its own version of the Great Soviet Encyclopedia. I mourn.
