I didn’t watch all of it, but I think you may want to do a little more research regarding your statement “Jefferson was not a religious man.” Yeah, he was a Deist. But “not Christian” doesn’t necessarily equal “not religious.” Look into it.

I have. I assure you that I have. Jefferson’s views were philosophical—not religious.

Well, I guess it depends on how YOU want to define “religious.”

Jefferson certainly didn’t base his views on faith, but rather on reason—which is the main distinction I draw, and that Romney seems to draw (he speaks of “faith” as much as “religion”, and seems to conflate the two.)
