Well now, let us review some statements made here by Jeff Higgins:
1) “I have not heard of this re-written Bible”
2) “Must be a pretty thin tome.”
3) “That's exactly what I thought; you are making it up as you go”
4) “Time to put up or shut up, buckwheat. Show us this "godless bible".”
5) “Post the link to your godless bible if you can. I suspect it does not exist. If, perchance it does, I suspect you are wildly off base with your interpretation of what it means, and its significance in the religious beginnings of our country.”
6) “Hmmm... Another troll bites the dust? Couldn't put up; wouldn't shut up, now conspicuous in his absence. Must still be looking for that godless bible.”
Now please notice how Jeff admits to his ignorance concerning the subject matter, then dismisses the evidence before he even sees it, does no research on his own, then declares that obviously I must have interpreted the evidence wrong (because it doesn’t fit in his narrow closed minded world) and finally deceives himself that somehow with his blustering ignorant stance he has “won” some kind of victory.
All typical responses from someone who “knows” and would not be bothered by anything that upsets his tiny little worldview. Jeff, you were even given a big hint when IROC posted: “Actually it is true. Read Thomas Jefferson's well published thoughts on the subject of the separation of church and state.
To quote:
"Because religious belief, or non-belief, is such an important part of every person's life, freedom of religion affects every individual. State churches that use government power to support themselves and force their views on persons of other faiths undermine all our civil rights. Moreover, state support of the church tends to make the clergy unresponsive to the people and leads to corruption within religion. Erecting the "wall of separation between church and state," therefore, is absolutely essential in a free society.
We have solved ... the great and interesting question whether freedom of religion is compatible with order in government and obedience to the laws. And we have experienced the quiet as well as the comfort which results from leaving every one to profess freely and openly those principles of religion which are the inductions of his own reason and the serious convictions of his own inquiries."
-- Thomas Jefferson"
But did you open your eyes and look? Of course not, you’re blinded by the “common knowledge” and “firm beliefs” that make you such a horse’s ass.
Well, here it is. I really was wishing that you had more gray cells connected than you really do and you would try some research on your own for once. But, alas, you must be true to your limitations. The bible I spoke about is called the “Jefferson Bible”, written by guess who and has all reference to Jesus’ divinity and miracles omitted (no divinity = no god or godless, for the slow ones out there).
So of course Jeff will spin his song and dance about misinterpretation (like he would know, not having studied any of this before) and insults, forgetting how Jeff himself provided evidence that they are accurate.
