Answer:

Both in religion and in politics, Thomas Jefferson believed that all men are created equal. Therefore, each man and woman have the right to choose their beliefs and have their own opinions.

In January 1777, Thomas Jefferson drafted the Bill for Establishing Religious Freedom which established the right of every man and woman to their own religious beliefs and opinions. Nine years later, this bill became the Virginia Statue  for Religious Freedom.  This statute was eventually incorporated into the Constitution as the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights.

As regards the Declaration of Independence, Jefferson wrote a statement of the colonists' right to rebel against the British government and establish their own based on the premise that all men are cretaed equal. In consequence, they have the rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. His ultimate goal was to express the unity of Americans against the tyranny of Britain.

Answer:

Thomas Jefferson's views on religion and government stem from the same ideals he believed in.

Explanation:

Jefferson was greatly influenced by French philosophers of the Age of Enlightenment, and the belief that men were born free and equal. This influence can be clearly seen in both the Declaration of Independence, of which he was the principal author, as well as Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom. Jefferson was an advocate of democracy, republicanism and individual rights, motivating American colonists to break away from the dominance of the Kingdom of Britain and form a new nation. He's the author of the quote "all men are created equal" which appears in the US Declaration of Independence, which has been called an "immortal declaration" and the phrase from the American Revolutionary period with most resonance and the greatest continuing importance, advocating that all men are born free and equal. The declaration provides clear and emphatic statements supporting self-government and individual rights, and it has become a model them for several hundred years.

Similarly, the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom, drafted by Jefferson, is a statement about both freedom of conscience and the principle of separation of church and state. The statue is rooted in Jefferson's philosophy, guaranteeing freedom of religion to people of all religious faiths. It was a notable precursor of the Establishment Clause and Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, which prevents the government from making any laws to regulate an establishment of religion, prohibit the free exercise of any religion or limit freedom of speech, freedom of the press, among others.
