Question

Whereas, Almighty God hath created the mind free; That all attempts to influence it by temporal punishments or burthens, or by civil incapacitations tend only to beget habits of hypocrisy and meanness, and therefore are a departure from the plan of the holy author of our religion, who being Lord, both of body and mind yet chose not to propagate it by coercions on either, as was in his Almighty power to do, What can be inferred about Jefferson’s beliefs from this excerpt? Select all that apply. He believed that we have no way of knowing what God’s intentions are. He believed reason to be a more trustworthy guide than religious doctrine.
