Thomas Jefferson was anti-shyster, not anti-Christian.
You know, I get really tired of all this crap about certain "enlightened" historical personages being atheists, when in fact they weren't.
On the 50th anniversary of the death of Albert Einstein back in 2006, National Public Radio had a program featuring interviews with some who'd been students of his (I read the transcript).
Albert Einstein, ostensibly the smartest human being who ever existed, so naturally the left claims he was an atheist; didn't believe in silly notions such as God.
All those interviewed, to a man (they were all male students and graduate assistants, and pretty old by 2006), agreed that Albert Einstein in fact acknowledged God, and publicly so, many times. They'd seen and heard it, with their own eyes and ears.
One supposes that because he was a non-observant Jew, the God-haters stretched this into that he was an atheist, and did a pretty good job of it.
