Jefferson himself didn't agree with that himself. Baloney.

John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. The words of the Lord. So Jefferson did have a problem with objective truth when he dissected his own Bible despite this piece to the contrary.

Jefferson's faith evolved throughout his life.

And, despite protestations of some fallible and uninspired dominionists to the contrary - the ideas articulated in the Virginia Act are further codified in the 1st Amendment -- with the intent cast in stone for all to see with their own eyes and free mind.

"EDUCATE THE COMMON PEOPLE"
--Thomas Jefferson

Deal with it.
