And the fact that Jefferson was inconsistent in what he practiced as opposed to what he believed proves....nothing!

That fact that he preached one thing, and in practice did the opposite, proves what he conveniently said was not what he believed.

Actions speak louder than words -- just like a stain on a blue dress.

Oh, did Clinton preach against adultery, I don't remember that sermon.

The word of the Declaration were words from Locke, who got them from the Bible.

Jefferson personal failures have nothing to do with the fact that the nation believed those words to be true.

The Confederacy did not-as Stephens himself said.
