[First Amendment]

Very interesting about Jefferson not believing (understanding) the fallen nature of man. If you have any links or book titles about that I'd be interested. Is that because he was a deist? Do you know what that even is? I would like to learn more... It seems that the belief that man is innately good but just has bad parents/government/upbringing is one of the worst lies. So much suffering has come from that. Long topic.

You might try the recent biography of Samuel Adams. There was a lot in there about Jefferson's love affair with the French, although Jefferson was not the subject of the book.

Shalom.
