Pantheon, today, is a church in Rome. It was formerly a Roman temple of gods. Marcus Agrippa was the one who commissioned the building during the reign of Augustus between the year 27 before Christ(BC) and 14 After death of Christ(AD).
The building is one of the best and most preserved tourist attraction today. In the seventh century, the building was dedicated to St. Mary and the Martyrs as a church. The dome of Pantheon was constructed with precisely cut marble bricks.
Vittorio Emanuele II and Umberto I are the two Kings buried in the Pantheon. Also, Umberto's Queen.

Thomas Jefferson wanted to separate the institution of the church and the state. Religious people did not agree with him and accused him of being atheist. When Jefferson won the election the Congregationalists hid their Bibles because they were afraid to practise their religion and ruine their reputation. This fear was influenced by the political mudslinging during this time.
