   This is a must read in its entirety for those that need to understand   
   how America came to being. Especially after May of 1707. Also to   
   understand that England was not part of Great Britain at that time. No   
   Scottish Kings were involved at all. Also King George was Anti-Catholic   
   due to being of the Masonic Order. The tennates of the Masonic Order   
   were delineated by the Magna Carta, Antislavery and a   
   Democratic-somewhat Republican personal freedoms. Washington DC seems to   
   be the very proof of that today.
