Midwest Book Review
Thomas Jefferson's Freethought Legacy: A Saying Per Day By The Sage Of Monticello is a delightful collection of quotes from Jefferson which establishes beyond dispute his enormous contributions to rationalism, freethought and science. Jefferson was unwavering in his dedication to the separation of church and state. Yet more often than not, historians (and especially politicians) have done is to select those quotes that reflect conventional religiosity and beliefs. Here Roger Greeley mines the rich ideas of Jefferson and extracts some of his most compelling gems. Readers are invited to meander through these pages enjoying the diverse and wide-ranging views of one of America's early intellectuals. Or, savor one quote each day and delight in Jefferson's well-reasoned thoughts for 365 days, and for years to come. In these turbulent days when our society is pushed and pulled by the excesses of the Religious Right, allow Jefferson's sober thoughts to "restore your confidence in freethought, rationalism, humanism, and the importance of reason, science, and education". Roger E. Greeley (Kalamazoo, MI) is a consultant to the North American Committee for Humanism, and a retired Unitarian Minister.
