So basically, you don't like Jefferson, Madison, or the founding fathers, and you're angry that they felt a wall of separation between church and state was essential?

Are you seriously, and against all reason and facts, asserting that Jefferson did not believe in a separation of church and state? Jefferson once rewrote the entire bible omitting all of the miracles (such as the virgin birth and resurrection) and attempted to get people to follow his new form of christianity, sans the supernatural.

As much as you hate the fact that Jefferson was not a religious man and did not believe in a Personal God, it does nothing to change the fact that our most revered founding father was, at most, a vague spinozian sort of deist who strongly believed that religion has no place in government.

The entire argument against separation of church and state is monumental intellectual dishonesty and you should all be ashamed of yourselves for such medieval barbarity that all reasonable human beings have long since abandoned
