That’s why David Barton and his ilk would rather marginalize Jefferson and pretend he wasn’t as important to American History as someone like John Calvin.

It’s hilarious to see the AFA trying to use Jefferson to make a religious point when others on the right want to pretend he had next to no influence at all.

David Barton Is Not A Historian


As Fea notes, some who knew Washington believed him to be a “truly devout man,” while others said they knew nothing about his personal faith at all, leading Fea to conclude that Washington’s “religious life was just too ambiguous.”

But acknowledging any ambiguity would only undermine David Barton’s entire professional enterprise, so he instead asserts that there is overwhelming eyewitness testimony to Washington’s deep and public Christian faith … which only goes to demonstrate, once again, that Barton has no interest in teaching, or even recognizing, history that does not promote his political agenda.
