[The Urban Sombrero]

You could concur, but you won't. And even if you couch your protests in your best powdered wig par écrit du jour, you know my argument makes sense.

I do not question that what you are saying makes sense. Within the framework in which you seem to be operating, it makes perfect sense. But to argue that Jefferson saw the world as a fundamentalist Christian is flawed in my view. To suggest that the filter to use in interpreting our foundational documents is the Christian fundamentalist one is, to me, flawed.
