Lynn A. reviewed The Gospel according to Thomas Jefferson, third US president on 8/20/2008

Helpful Score: 2

In 1804 President Jefferson set out to edit the Gospels in order to uncover the essence of true religion in the simple story of Jesus. Jefferson was convinced that the authentic message of Jesus could be found only by extracting Jesus' message of absolute love and service from the more miraculous aspects of the story (annunciation, virgin birth or resurrection)This little book is the remarkable result of Jefferson's efforts.
