Here's another good quote from Jefferson: "The priests of the different religious sects... dread the advance of science as witches do the approach of daylight, and scowl on the fatal harbinger announcing the subdivision of the duperies on which they live."

True also Philo, but remember tht there was no true church upon the face of the earth during Jefferson's time. The church's then taught many ridiculous unscientific and illogical doctrines, of which I have mentioned many on this site.
