The Statement of "Natures God " , the "Creator" who endows us with inalienable rights , was not referring to the God of Abraham singly , Mr. Hodgkin.
If you want to believe that , it's OK , but you do not understand the intent of the author of the text in this instance , or his depth and scope...
Jefferson was thinking in much wider fields of freedom of religion , in this vast new experiment called America, and in his own words mentions that the "Creator" was also meant to include what is concieved of as well by :
" the Hindoo , the Moslem , or the Chinese ... "
you do not .,...or do understand who your founding father Jefferson truely was and was aiming for, don't you ?
I have heard that Truth is what you seek , so there you are .
He was a very rare fellow...
