To: CHRISTIAN DIARIST

Jefferson was not an atheist, but neither was he a Christian believer.

That’s not true. The idea that he was a “deist” is incorrect. His now infamous “seperation of church and state” letter was written to someone of a certain denomination who was afraid that Jefferson was going to impose his own (Christian) denomination on the nation at the expense of others.

I love how the left uses Jefferson’s above mentioned letter against us while ignoring his 17,000 some odd other letters.
