Yeah well, at least I had the courtesy to extract what I felt were relevant points of an otherwise long piece. I waded through about half of it before realizing I could be chasing my tail. I have no intention of translating the Latin(?), nor following links til I can find the part you thought relevant. Tacky Luis.

Funny.
You are responding to my post #236, and that's exactly what I did.
"I waded through about half of it before realizing I could be chasing my tail."
In other words, you were not willing to read something that challenged your claim.
"I have no intention of translating the Latin..."
Had you taken the time to actually glance over Jefferson's letter, you would have seen that he had translated the Latin.
"...nor following links ‘til I can find the part you thought relevant."
There were no "links" to follow, and the relevant part was already highlighted on my #236.
Your quote from the Avalon Project was in answer to my claim that Christianity was not around during the enactment of British Common Law, nor the Magna Carta, and that there was at least a two hundred year gap between the introduction of Christianity, and the aforementioned events. In response, and in a way of challenging Thomas Jefferson's research, you also provided the approximate dates of travel for some Christian missionaries into what would eventually become Great Britain.
A couple of things:
Kings wrote laws, and contact between Christians and common folk could not possibly impact the decisions of the rulers, and two, the Charter OF Canute was dated several hundred years after what Jefferson identified as the conversion between English law, and Christianity. In other words, your post helped prove my point.
"Tacky Luis."
I'll tell you what's truly tacky.
Tacky is a person using the word "God" as an identity, then behaving as you behaved here. Arrogant, proud, and close-minded.
Try this, for God's sake, read John 8:32.
