I know little of Freemasonry and, as such, you may have placed yourself (assuming you are a Mason) where I have no personal foothold for debate. In my digital research, however, I have bookmarked
this site for further reading. In this article Allen E. Roberts, FPS, exposes myths regarding the Masons that have been advanced by Masons and non-Masons alike. Some of the very statements you've made here as fact are exposed as deception by this highly respected
member of the Masonic Research Society.
I do not post this to attack you or the Masonic organization, but only to point out that truth and deception are everywhere. Only through careful study and setting aside preconceptions can we hope to set them apart. Statements like:
"HOW do I know that? I do." are road-blocks to discerning the truth.
The Jefferson Bible you speak of was titled by Jefferson as
"The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth, Extracted Textually from the Gospels in Greek, Latin, French and English." As I understand, it is akin to a set of Cliff Notes focusing not on the divinity of Jesus but on the moral lessons He taught. As a Christian I believe it was an error for Jefferson to abridge the Gospel in this fashion. However, a blanket statement like he
"rewrote [the Bible] to his image and likeness" is misleading and quite untrue. You may investigate further
here.
I also agree with you that only a theocracy established, headed, and blessed by God Himself has a chance at succeeding in this world. I have no desire to see mankind attempt a theocracy in the United States and would oppose it myself. It is, in my opinion, doomed to corruption and failure. I also oppose, however, this politically-correct sense of anti-Christian tolerance groomed into the United States over these last fifty years.
The historic evidence is that this nation was Founded by God-fearing men, predominantly Christians, who absolutely desired to protect the religious practices of all other God-fearing men despite the differences thereof (which Washington considered
"slight") without instituting a theocracy which they feared above all.
Put aside for a moment what you know or think you know of Masonry; forget the allegations as to who subscribed and did not subscribe to it. Re-read historic literature written by the Founders themselves with a clear eye. I think a whole new picture will emerge for you as to the intents the Founders had with regard to religion. You might even like, or at least respect, what you see.
P.S. Don't be intransingent unless you are guaranteed 100% accurate the first time around :-)
