    Thank you! I always like to inform xtianists about this. :)

    When they go on about how how this country “was founded on xtianity”, I ask them if anyone told Jefferson this “fact” of theirs. When they are like…huh? I tell them about his version of “the” bible, which without question would have been considered a “heresy” he could have been murdered over in other parts of the planet, and during his lifetime.

    I also like how these people like to try Thomas Paine erasure; probably because the likes of Teddy Roosevelt called him a “dirty little atheist” - it got even weirder when the likes of Glenn Beck - who is in the LDS - tried to appropriate Paine - I was totally confused by that one, but hey, these guys are great at rewriting history and trying to appropriate things…
