Its roots, its purpose, its identity?all have become shrouded behind a veil of political correctness bent on twisting the nation's founding, and its founders, to fit within a misshapen modern world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe time has come to remember again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn The Jefferson Lies, prominent historian David Barton sets out to correct the distorted image of a once-beloved founding father, Thomas Jefferson. To do so, Barton tackles seven myths head-on, including:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e * Did Thomas Jefferson really have a child by his young slave girl, Sally Hemings?\u003cbr\u003e * Did he write his own Bible, excluding the parts of Christianity with which he disagreed?\u003cbr\u003e * Was he a racist who opposed civil rights and equality for black Americans?\u003cbr\u003e * Did he, in his pursuit of separation of church and state, advocate the secularizing public life?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough Jefferson's own words and the eyewitness testimony of contemporaries, Barton repaints a portrait of the man from Monticello as a visionary, an innovator, a man who revered Jesus, a classical Renaissance man?and a man whose pioneering stand for liberty and God-given inalienable rights fostered a better world for this nation and its posterity. For America, the time to remember these truths again is now.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Skull \u0026 Books VR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54394127253797,"sku":"9781595554598","price":7.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0917\/7245\/3157\/files\/9781595554598.jpg?v=1793905349","url":"https:\/\/www.skullandbooksvr.com\/products\/the-jefferson-lies-exposing-the-myths-youve-always-believed-about-thomas-jefferson","provider":"Skull \u0026 Books VR","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
