To the corruptions of Christianity I am indeed opposed; but not to the genuine precepts of Jesus himself. I am a Christian, in the only sense he wished any one to be; sincerely attached to his doctrines, in preference to all others; ascribing to himself every human excellence; & believing he never claimed any other. ✨ Thomas Jefferson, Joyce Appleby, Terence Ball (1999). Jefferson: Political Writings, p.267, Cambridge University Press
