I've noticed before that you have a manic tendency to erupt out of nowhere with this kind of over the top flame bait. In this specific case you're going so far as to outright call me a liar over what amounts to a quibble over wording. When I put Jefferson wrote his own Bible into Google the AI says "yes".
AI Overview
Yes, Thomas Jefferson compiled his own version of the Bible, which became known as the "Jefferson Bible" or "The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth". He extracted passages from various Gospels in English, French, Latin, and Greek, removing sections he didn't believe were historically accurate or were later embellishments. The result was a book that presented a more ethical and rationalized version of Jesus' life and teachings, focusing on his moral teachings and excluding supernatural elements like the resurrection and miracles.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Purpose:
Jefferson's goal was to create a text that presented a version of Jesus' life and teachings based on his own understanding and interpretation of the Gospels, focusing on the ethical and moral aspects.
Compilation:
He meticulously cut and pasted passages from multiple Bibles in various languages, including English, French, Greek, and Latin, into a single volume.
Content:
The Jefferson Bible excluded sections he considered later embellishments or contradictory to his understanding of reason and history, such as the virgin birth, miracles, and the resurrection.
Significance:
The Jefferson Bible highlights Jefferson's intellectual curiosity and his attempt to synthesize historical and religious knowledge in a way that aligned with his Enlightenment ideals.
History:
While he never published it, the Jefferson Bible was passed down through his family and eventually acquired by the Smithsonian Institution. It is now displayed at the National Museum of American History.

Now, we both know you're not a serious person. One, because you'd never call me a liar face to face. Second, because you safely insult me at a distance where I can't beat you up. I'd like to kick your ass. Meet me. Where I come from you can get killed for less. I don't take you seriously. You don't even take yourself seriously. But I do take blatant disrespect, slander, and affronts to honor seriously. I wanna hurt you.
