Dear Slugger: I am VERY IMPRESSED with your historical knowledge and how you displayed it. I wish you could get your post to the Senate floor before the close of arguement just for SOMEONE to read it. I have a feeling we would be better off if our governing leaders could be REMINDED OF THEIR ROOTS. JDN

Even though you quote Thomas Jefferson:

"Thomas Jefferson: In "Report of the Commons" for the University of Virginia, August 4, 1818, morality is linked to "the supreme ruler of the universe, the author of all the relations of morality, and of the laws and obligations these
infer...." The moral obligations [are] those in which all sects agree...." said as I told you before"
:

Jefferson maintained:

Thomas Jefferson, who said in a letter that the First amendment was intended to erect
"a wall of separation between church and state."
