Among the tangible gifts Thomas Jefferson gave to

America are -- The Declaration of Independence,

the University of Virginia, the Louisiana Purchase,

and -- an American Bible that gave substance and

Being to American's Promise -- without creating

another religion. And last, but certainly not least,

"the World's last best hope for global tranquility"
-- The United States of America, the host of

America's Promise.

You read the American Bible to find out what Thomas Jefferson and the Founding Fathers took from the King James Bible AV, et al., that they translated into the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. A topic of Church discussions.

 

1) When residing in a Red State, the American Bible is your only real connection to America and America's Heritage. Red State Christians made no contribution to America's growing-up processes. According to Adam Putnam, Florida's Commis- sioner of Agriculture and Consumer Protection and a multi-generation Floridian, Florida did not discover it was a part of the USA until WW ll. Floridians did not participate in the growth of the industrial-based American Middle Class from 1950-2000. During this period, Florida's Christians were dealing with the Constitutional mandate of "universal suffrage" to which they are opposed. The voting issue in Florida has yet to be resolved.
