Our fifth president, James Monroe, gave his name to a doctrine, but it had nothing to do with faith; in fact, Monroe may have been the least religious of all our early presidents.

That was an interesting read. Just fyi--for what it's worth which isn't much, James Monroe was my fifth-great-uncle. But the real truth, since we're among friends, the blood relation was the woman to whom he was married. I can remember his name without a problem, but have a heck of a time remembering hers.
