"I HAVE SWORN UPON THE ALTAR OF GOD ETERNAL HOSTILITY TO EVERY FORM OF TYRANNY OVER THE MIND OF MAN" --The Virginia Act For Establishing Religious Freedom --Thomas Jefferson, 1786

What are we to infer from that quote? What did you intend we take from it?

preventing FALLIBLE AND UNINSPIRED MEN FROM ASSUMING DOMINION OVER THE FAITH OF OTHERS - like America's founders did.

Did America's Founders prevent or assume dominion over the faith of others?

That Thomas Jefferson wouldn’t have been an ISIS fan.

Did you read the quotes from the Virginia Act?
