Did you know, an evangelical minister once said of Jefferson that he preferred a liberal atheist--referring to  Jefferson--to govern than a bigoted saint. Considering the political upheaval of the last few years, I found this fascinating.

Yes, happy birthday to RO. It seems strange about Jefferson, but what could be stranger than your last four years.

Birgit said...

I love that saying and agree with it. Besides, how can a bigot be a saint? Happy Birthday Ro!

Sandra Cox said...

Innit the truth? And unfortunately, the strangeness continues.

Happy birthday to my dear friend, RO! She's so special, she always gets an exclamation point after her name.

I had to think about that statement for a minute because I've lived through these last four years in the states (state of misinformation and lies, that is).

Sandra Cox said...

Who'd a thought, right?

Christine said...

Happy Birthday Ro. Bigoted saint doesn't sit well with me.

It's probably why the forefathers decided on a separation of church and state.

Sandra Cox said...

Sounds like an oxymoron doesn't it, Birgit?

Sandra Cox said...

I hear ya on that.

Sandra Cox said...

You are still a sweet young thing:)
Enjoy your special day. May it bring much happiness.

Sandra Cox said...

And isn't it sad, it's still going on? It's got me nervous.
Ro certainly deserves an exclamation point or two:)
YOU take special care.

Sandra Cox said...

Thank goodness for that.

Was Jefferson an atheist? That's something I don't remember about him.

Love,

Great quote. I so agree.

Sandra Cox said...

No reason you should know that one:)
Thanks for Ro's well wishes.
Sending you a hug:)

Sandra Cox said...

My understanding is he was more of a deist.

I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
