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.
