Jesus Without The Miracles: Thomas Jefferson's Bible and the Gospel of Thomas

This links to an article in Harper's magazine comparing the Deist faith of Thomas Jeffferson with the christology of the Gospel of Thomas.

Thought F/friends might find it interesting in light of recent discussions here.

I think it's interesting. I think this is Josh's favorite Bible :-). Jefferson was a Mason too - sort of a christian without Jesus.

More like he had Jesus without the Christ. Jesus as wise philosopher -- better folks than I have challenged that one -- for example -- CS Lewis.
