Thomas Jefferson believed in God. He considered Jesus the "great reformer of the Jewish religion." He wrote that "Of all the systems of morality, ancient or modern, which have come under my observation, none appear to me so pure as that of Jesus." However Jefferson viewed Jesus and human, not divine.
