[QUOTE="Purp, post: 2743585, member: 12852"] Jefferson's letter to the Danbury Baptists is another grossly misconstrued piece of language. The Danbury Baptists wanted a newly elected President Jefferson to intercede on their behalf and Jefferson stated that there was a wall of separation between church and state meaning, as an agent of the federal government, he could not and would not intervene. In other words, though he was sympathetic to their cause, he contended that the state of Connecticut had sole authority on the matter. In other words, Jefferson's letter in response to the Danbury Baptists was in direct contravention of the point most people make when they rely on his famous "wall of separation" phrase. [/QUOTE]
