No.... you're a bit off.
Washington said: "Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports."
Sheldon said: "[a]fusion of religion and morality and public policy has now come about."
These are not the same things. Sheldon is misinterpreting the words, twisting them for his needs. Washington said religion and morality are indespensible
supports, not that religion should guide public policy. There is a subtle but distinct difference.
