Great American secular humanists — Thomas Jefferson

Third in a series:
"Can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are the gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath? I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just.
- Thomas Jefferson, Drafted the Declaration of Independence, third president of the United States.
Earlier: James Madison, Harry S. Truman

If Thomas Jefferson trembles when he reflects that God is just, the Commonwealth of Virginia should brace for an earthquake.
