I'd like to ignore Texas, but

Since TJ is a personal hero of mine, and, last I heard, the main author of the Declaration of Independence, I'm just a little taken aback. "Thomas Jefferson no longer included among writers influencing the nation’s intellectual origins. Jefferson, a deist who helped pioneer the legal theory of the separation of church and state, is not a model founder in the board’s judgment. Among the intellectual forerunners to be highlighted in Jefferson’s place: medieval Catholic philosopher St. Thomas Aquinas, Puritan theologian John Calvin and conservative British law scholar William Blackstone. Heavy emphasis is also to be placed on the founding fathers having been guided by strict Christian beliefs." WTF? Next up, dentists will start asking for George Washington to be removed from the founders because he had a bad set of false teeth.
