Where do you left-wing patriots get off making shit up and attempting to pass it off as "fact"? Who do you think you are to just make up reality for others? Thomas Jefferson was a devout christian. He revered Jesus Christ - and fawned over Him in all of his writings.Jefferson was a deist.
“My views of [the Christian religion] … are the result of a life of inquiry and reflection, and very different from that anti-Christian system imputed to me by those who know nothing of my opinions. To the corruptions of Christianity I am, indeed, opposed; but not to the genuine precepts of Jesus himself. I am a Christian, in the only sense in which he wished anyone to be–sincerely attached to his doctrines, in preference to all others; ascribing to himself every human excellence, and believing he never claimed any other". – Thomas Jefferson in a letter to Dr. Benjamin Rush (April 21, 1803)

“I hold the precepts of Jesus, as delivered by Himself, to be the most pure, benevolent, and sublime which have ever been preached to man.” - Thomas Jefferson in a letter to Jared Sparks (November 4, 1820)

In short - you are a moron Political Junky and you should be ashamed of yourself for blatantly lying to people. You are everything that Jesus preached against.
