Andrew Sullivan Cites Jefferson

One of famous blogger Andrew Sullivan's email correspondents emailed him quoting what he referred to as "Jefferson's 1781 Essay 'Religion in Virginia'." Sullivan posts about it. I can't pass up a prominent Jefferson reference, of course. What the emailer calls "Religion in Virginia" is actually an excerpt from Query XVII of Notes on the State of Virginia, which is available online here.
