Wow are you dense.

So in other words you HAVE NO direct link between the 1st Amendment written by Madison and the writings or speeches of Wilson. Madison himself cited Thomas Jefferson and the Virgina Religious Freedom Act he penned as the inspiration for the 1st Amendment.

Oh, but Jefferson had NOTHING to do with it, well other than being directly cited by the author as the inspiration and basis.

So apparently you need to dismiss and demean one of our most influential founding fathers, and completely ignore Madison citing him as a direct inspiration in order to buy into your revisionist history.

I just gave you one genius. Do you even know what the Committee of Detail was? Do you know what was involved with assuring the ratification of the Constitution? Wow... just wow.
