"Jefferson believed in God and regularly attended Church."

Quit digging! Jefferson believed Jesus was a man--NOT a God. He did NOT believe Jesus was Divine. If that is the Christianity you wish to claim for Jefferson-have at it! Jefferson does not anywhere support Christian ideas of supernaturalism or Holiness or MAGICAL THINKING! He was a rationalist.

Take a look at how Luther (the epitome of a Christian) viewed Reason, and you will remark the difference between Jefferson and every Christian you have ever known or dreamed about! Jefferson was a MAN OF REASON who grounded morality in REASON!
