Ignore. You contribute nothing.

Jefferson authored the declaration of independence stating that British law no longer applied to him nor his land.

In the same spirit he simply used only parts of the bible that he personally favored.

The Jefferson Bible, or The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth as it is formally titled, , was Thomas Jefferson's effort to extract the doctrine of Jesus by removing sections of the New Testament containing supernatural aspects as well as perceived misinterpretations he believed had been added by the Four Evangelists.

Using a razor, Jefferson cut and arranged selected verses from the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John in chronological order, mingling excerpts from one text to those of another in order to create a single narrative. Thus he begins with Luke 2 and Luke 3, then follows with Mark 1 and Matthew 3. He provides a record of which verses he selected and of the order in which he arranged them in his “Table of the Texts from the Evangelists employed in this Narrative and of the order of their arrangement.”
The Jefferson Bible begins with an account of Jesus’s birth without references to angels, genealogy, or prophecy. Miracles, references to the Trinity and the divinity of Jesus, and Jesus' resurrection are also absent from the Jefferson Bible.[5] The work ends with the words: “Now, in the place where he was crucified, there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid. There laid they Jesus. And rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.” These words correspond to the ending of John 19 in the Bible.

Jefferson supported the Constitution. Says it was the best ever written.

"I am persuaded no Constitution was ever before so well calculated as ours for extensive empire and self-government." --Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, 1809. ME 12:277

He didn't attend the big government convention.

Thomas Jefferson, who was Minister to France during the convention, characterized the delegates as an assembly of "demi-gods."
Link to philidelphia convention.


And he was obviously unhappy with it later on as he was a proponent of the Bill of Rights.

Jefferson didn't attend the Constitutional Convention because he was in France. After the Bill of Rights was added to the Constitution, Jefferson approved of it.

"I do not like [in the new Federal Constitution] the omission of a Bill of Rights providing clearly and without the aid of sophisms for... protection against standing armies." --Thomas Jefferson to James Madison, 1787. ME 6:387

Where's that provision?

 

[erowe1]

What does "marriage equality" mean? And where does he say anything about it?

I figured marriage equality meant I could marry my neighbors goat and all of his sisters .

Pence might not have a hidden agenda, but he has an agenda-to win the votes of the religious nut cases who dominate the Iowa caucuses. and it probably will work.
