they're likely more interested in the possibility that dinosaurs were trippy
and that's the way it is for the week of February 23rd 2015
I'm Thom Hartmann and science and green
its
them
done
good
welcome back down here would be a twenty-eight minutes before the hour
II wanna share some some
thoughts at thomas jefferson before a judge Roy Moore drops in
'em and
and the actually to and I'll do that
no actually we got talking to Brittany is committed only
okay here's this is the
personal Ben Franklin this is this is what the founders thought of
Christianity
Ben Franklin quote it's in his blood
autobiography toward the mystery is that I found Christian dogma
unintelligible early in life I absented myself from Christian assemblies
thomas jefferson in his personal diary February for $17.99
he says when the clergy address general washington his departure from the
government was observed in their consultation that he had never
on any occasion said a word to the public which showed a belief in the
Christian religion
and they thought they should soap and their address as 24cm
at link to publicly declare whether he was a Christian or not
they did so however Jefferson wrote in his diary
the old Fox was to come in for them he answered every article at the dress
particularly except that which he passed over without notice
I in any added is washington never did say word on the subject in any his
public papers accepted his valedictory
valedictory the letter to the governor's the states when he resigned his
commission in the army
when he speaks at the benign influence in the Christian religion
I know the governor Morris who pretended to be in his secrets in washington
confidence
and believes himself to be so has often told me the George Washington
believes no more in that Christian system then he himself did
the treaty with Tripoli 1797 John Adams's
was president starts out as the government up the United States is not
in any sense founded on the Christian religion
his the Virginia statute for literally just freedom
the Thomas Jefferson authored this is when he was a member of the house a
Burgess is in Virginia as a young man in his twenties was won his first major
pieces of legislation
any row where the preamble to the Virginia statute for religious freedom
declares the coercion
is a departure from the plan of the Holy author of our religion
and met an amendment was part proposed by a nurse
inserting the words Jesus Christ so it should read a departure of the plan
Jesus Christ all the author of our religion insertion was rejected by the
great majority in proof that they meant to comprehend within the man to love its
protection
maybe the Virginia statute for religious freedom within the metal bits protection
the Juno and the Gentile
the Christian and the Mohalla TN the Hindu
and infidel every denomination and then he talks about how the ten commandments
are not
part a British common law therefore not part of American English lies is finally
an answer to protest cue
I this is a February 10 18:14 later doctor Thomas Cooper
finally an answer to Fort sq Allans question why the tent mamet should not
now be a party the common law of England
we may say they are not because they never were christianity was not
introduced until the 7th century the conversion the first Christian king and
have turkey
have been taking place around the year 598 and that'll last around six
eighty-six
here then was a spacehab two hundred years during which the common law is in
existence in Christianity no part of it
we might as well say Thomas Jefferson wrote
but the new Tony in system of philosophy is part of the common laws the Christian
religion is
in truth the alliance between church and state in england has ever made their
judges
accomplices in the frauds the clergy
and even bolder than they are our judges to atlanta handy for these frauds
and have been willing to lay the yoke other their own opinions on the neck
some others to extend the coercion to municipal law
to the dog must have their religion by declaring the these make up part
of the law of the land he goes on I got a bunch more quotes here but
just f.y.i
okay all that said mana
