What Thomas Jefferson. one of the Founding Fathers. talked about. what he believed in. was multiplicity. What he wanted was for every American citizen to be able to decide what his or her religious beliefs were without those beliefs being tampered with or imposed upon in any way by the Government of the United States or any government. Immigrants to our Nation came out of many traditions where governments stuck their noses into peoples beliefs. In one way or another. they stuck more than their noses. they dictated what the official religion would be. In other cases. they persecuted directly. overtly. and convertly. those who did not particularly agree with the majority beliefs.
