Explain to me how 'wall of separation' Jefferson supported these ideals. After all, he supported a law, along with Madison (one wrote the law and the other introduced it) to punish Sabbath breakers in Virginia. This law ended up passing comfortably. Of course, we can't forget that Jefferson gave public money to Christian missionaries either. Oh, by the way, he also made students in Washington, D.C. read the Bible as the primary textbook.
