My favorite quotes out of this:
Jefferson wrote, "by bringing the sects together, and mixing them with the mass of other students, we shall soften their asperities, liberalize and neutralize their prejudices, and make the general religions a religion of peace, reason and morality."
Immediately Madison jumped on him, and said, "Don't do that! Who does not see that the same authority which can establish Christianity in exclusion to all other religions, may establish with the same ease any particular sect of Christians in exclusion to all the other sects? The bill violates the equality which ought to be the basis of every law."<
