Speaker 1: Brought to you by the reinvented two thousand twelve Camray.
Speaker 1: It's ready. Are you welcome to Stuff you Should Know
Speaker 1: from House Stuff Works dot Com. Hey, and welcome to
Speaker 1: the podcast. I'm Josh Clark. With me is always as
Speaker 1: Charles W. Chuckers Bryant, and that makes this stuff you
Speaker 1: should know. I'm always here for you. Josh. Yeah, Hey,
Speaker 1: don't whatever. I'm glad you are. Chuck. Sure. This is
Speaker 1: UM Day two, Episode two in the new Studio. Yes,
Speaker 1: the walls are closing in on us. I'm kind of
Speaker 1: looking in here now. I'm already used to it, Chuck, Josh. Um,
Speaker 1: So the Bible has been popping up in my life
Speaker 1: a lot lately. Really, Yeah, um, you mean? And I
Speaker 1: just started subscribing to Harper's Monthly Weekly, one of those two.
Speaker 1: It's like this magazine from like eight nine, okay. Um.
Speaker 1: And in the first article of the first issue that
Speaker 1: we got, it's um there's a there's I guess notes
Speaker 1: section by a guy who says that the Old Testament
Speaker 1: is an allegory for the Neolithic revolution. Remember we went
Speaker 1: from hunting and gathering to agriculture. And he made some
Speaker 1: really cool points, Um, like for example, Kane and Abel.
Speaker 1: Abel was a herdsman, Kane was a farmer. Kane murdered Abel, right,
Speaker 1: so he slew him, uh first murder. Ever, as far
Speaker 1: as we know, yes, um, I can't remember what he
Speaker 1: said about Adam and Eve. But basically like that's the
Speaker 1: beginning where we It was actually kind of a cautionary tale. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like like be careful, there's all this other stuff associated
Speaker 1: with agriculture that you're not seeing. Um So, I found
Speaker 1: that intensely interesting. Then you suggest we do one on
Speaker 1: the Jefferson Bible, and I'm like, what's going on here?
Speaker 1: Right right? Third one, number three? This elderly woman by
Speaker 1: all right, she's in her eighties, nineties, spitfire ladies still though, sure,
Speaker 1: I didn't like to use a blinker When she stopped
Speaker 1: suddenly in parking lots when I'm right behind her, the
Speaker 1: um so I went around her. I was a little irritated,
Speaker 1: and I wanted her to know it. She lays on
Speaker 1: her horn and I let's stick my head out, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, be quiet, and like you did not, I
Speaker 1: go in park and I go into the into the um,
Speaker 1: into public spe quiet. This woman comes and finds me
Speaker 1: and it's like, are you the sir, You the gentleman
Speaker 1: who went around me and traffic blah blah blah, and
Speaker 1: she's like berating me loudly in the middle of public.
Speaker 1: He said, I'm no gentleman. So finally she ends it
Speaker 1: with you need to get to church. And I was like,
Speaker 1: I swear to God, I'm not kidding you. My friend
Speaker 1: tom My bff Tom was on the phone with me.
Speaker 1: He can verify this, and he said, Betty White is
Speaker 1: coming after me in a public I wish this was
Speaker 1: Betty White. This woman was terrifying. She was wearing like
Speaker 1: clam diggers with um white sox, pulled up black s
Speaker 1: a S shoes um. Her skin hung loose, and she
Speaker 1: had fire in her She wanted to kill me. What
Speaker 1: did you say? Did you reply anything? Or did you
Speaker 1: just sheepish sleep? Rather, I wasn't sheepish. You're not gonna
Speaker 1: say what you said? You can tell me afterwards there, right, okay?
Speaker 1: But I was. I wasn't cheapish. I wasn't like entirely mean,
Speaker 1: but I didn't I didn't frankly, as you know, I
Speaker 1: quit the boy Scouts because I think that it's a
Speaker 1: bad idea to just give blanket respect to the old
Speaker 1: people because they're old. I've met some old jerks in
Speaker 1: my time, and this was actually one of them. So yeah,
Speaker 1: but this this week, man three, it's an exciting week.
Speaker 1: I never talked about the Bible. It never comes up,
Speaker 1: Church never comes up. But here we are, all right, Chuck.
Speaker 1: Did Thomas Jefferson right or rewrite the Bible? Fact or fiction? Hey,
Speaker 1: that's old school, Josh. That is faction because he um,
Speaker 1: he did not rewrite the Bible, but he did cobble
Speaker 1: together his own version of the Bible that he thought
Speaker 1: was um valid and and should be read. I'll just
Speaker 1: say that, which is actually, if you think about it,
Speaker 1: really a pretty pretentious and arrogant thing to do. This
Speaker 1: wouldn't go over well in today's president If someone said Obama, UM,
Speaker 1: put together, you know, different parts of the Bible and
Speaker 1: said that this was what I think the Bible should be,
Speaker 1: he wouldn't last too long. No, I don't think it
Speaker 1: would have ever gone over If Taft had done it,
Speaker 1: he would have been like run out of town on
Speaker 1: a rail, Like, you can't do that. It's early day,
Speaker 1: so you away with anything. Back then, I suspect that
Speaker 1: Thomas Jefferson had um Asperger's from some of his uh,
Speaker 1: some of his um. His demeanor, the way carrying himself
Speaker 1: is incredibly high level of intellect. Um. I suspect that
Speaker 1: he had some something along those lines. Right, he might have.
Speaker 1: You can also say that he could not have cared
Speaker 1: less what people thought of him. He did his own thing.
Speaker 1: Highly intelligent guy. Um. And like you said, if it
Speaker 1: had come out that the president had done that, a
Speaker 1: lot of people are unaware of this, that it wouldn't
Speaker 1: go over very well, which is why he didn't let
Speaker 1: it out. I don't know that that's why he didn't
Speaker 1: let it out. I think he just was doing it
Speaker 1: for himself, genuinely. I don't think he was trying to
Speaker 1: be secretive about it. But you were saying, like it
Speaker 1: wouldn't go over well. Today, there's kind of it's kind
Speaker 1: of um fashionable in certain quarters to point out that
Speaker 1: the founding fathers were bent on founding a Christian nation.
Speaker 1: It's a very contentious thing to say, although a lot
Speaker 1: of people that's how they see the United States, right.
Speaker 1: I think Thomas Jefferson cutting up the Bible and cutting
Speaker 1: out all the miracles and what he considered gobbledygook kind
Speaker 1: of undermines that argument a little bit. Don't you think, well,
Speaker 1: he was a deist. It's a good time to bring
Speaker 1: that up. George Washington was a deist. Benjamin Franklin and
Speaker 1: what we call founders, they are they differ from traditional
Speaker 1: Christians because they reject miracles, basically a lot of the prophecies,
Speaker 1: and they says here they embraced the notion of a
Speaker 1: well ordered universe created by God, but God then withdrew
Speaker 1: into detached transcendence. They believe like a lot of things
Speaker 1: Christians believe, but a lot a lot of people at
Speaker 1: the time said this was a way for you to
Speaker 1: reconcile your Christianity with all these amazing new scientific findings
Speaker 1: that we're finding that kind of fly in the face
Speaker 1: of Christianity. Right in Deism was the Enlightenment religion, right um.
Speaker 1: And basically the way it looked at God is there's
Speaker 1: a creator God, but he's kind of like a clockmaker,
Speaker 1: and he created this clock of a universe wounded up
Speaker 1: and just stood back to to watch it go. It's
Speaker 1: a great way to say. And do you remember, like
Speaker 1: in the really uber paranoid late nineties, right before the millennium.
Speaker 1: There's like kind of a concept that the universe is
Speaker 1: a u the result of an alien experiment. That's kind
Speaker 1: of like in the same vein. Actually there's some higher
Speaker 1: power that doesn't have a hand in our individual lives,
Speaker 1: but start created all this. Yeah, pretty interesting, it is.
Speaker 1: So that was That was T J m BF and
Speaker 1: g W T Jeff. That's what his nickname today would
Speaker 1: be T Jeff. His nickname today is T Jeff as
Speaker 1: of now. So um. He also was the he pinned
Speaker 1: the Declaration of Independence, we should say, which most people know.
Speaker 1: He was also the one who co first elucidated the
Speaker 1: wall of separation between church and state. Yeah, not did
Speaker 1: not come from the Constitution. No, but he So there's
Speaker 1: this Baptist Convention of dan Berry, Yes, the Connecticut Committee
Speaker 1: of the dan Berry Baptist Association, and they wrote to
Speaker 1: Jefferson saying, is this a Christian nation or not? Basically
Speaker 1: he basically pointed to know he said, he said, he said, no,
Speaker 1: I I I'm sure you agree with me that religion
Speaker 1: is between a man and his God and really eloquently
Speaker 1: said no, there's a First Amendment. There's a there's a
Speaker 1: clause in the First Amendment that says that that UM
Speaker 1: Congress won't um establish a religion, and so I Thomas
Speaker 1: Jefferson as president and one of the guys who wrote that,
Speaker 1: see it as a wall of separation between church and state.
Speaker 1: He thought it was a very very personal thing. Religion
Speaker 1: was spirituality was a very personal thing. No one should
Speaker 1: step in and tell you what to think about it, right,
Speaker 1: It's so personal that he decided to craft his own Bible. Yes.
Speaker 1: And one of the reasons he did us because Um,
Speaker 1: like we said, he was a deist deist or deist daist.
Speaker 1: I think you can go either way. Now he's a Deist.
Speaker 1: And he was also very skeptical of who wrote the Bible,
Speaker 1: the Gospels in particular. He thought they were quote unlettered
Speaker 1: and ignorant. Yeah, basically how he saw the Bible writers. Um,
Speaker 1: that's where the name comes from. Yeah, those were the
Speaker 1: Gospel writers. But they were also um Platonics. They followed
Speaker 1: Plato and wrote around the time of Plato. Um. And
Speaker 1: they remember when we were talking about like Halloween, Christmas, Easterday. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're all pagan holidays that we've adopted and christianized in
Speaker 1: in an effort Um eastern together. Yeah, it wasn't. Yes,
Speaker 1: spring harvest, spring um equinox, vernal equinox. I think it's
Speaker 1: what it's called right, vernal and autumnal. Yes, vernal equinox,
Speaker 1: and s Tera was a pagan goddess. Anyway, Um, this
Speaker 1: is this, This is how he viewed the the Bible
Speaker 1: being written like like there was a there was a
Speaker 1: person named Jesus of Nazareth. He walked awesome guy, philosopher,
Speaker 1: incredible philosopher, had this amazing moral code what right? Um?
Speaker 1: And then uh and espoused it to people who remembered it,
Speaker 1: passed it down orally, and then somebody finally wrote it down.
Speaker 1: But when they were trying to write it down, they
Speaker 1: were also trying to establish a church. And Um, so
Speaker 1: they added some magic so that they could they could
Speaker 1: bring the pagans into the fold a miracles. Yes. And
Speaker 1: he also believed and this is where he really wouldn't
Speaker 1: jibe with today's UH system as a politician. He did
Speaker 1: not believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ. He did
Speaker 1: not believe that he was the son of God. He
Speaker 1: thought that he was like Plato, essentially like a spot
Speaker 1: on philosopher. But he thought a lot of them, he said. Um.
Speaker 1: He wrote a letter to John Adams in eighteen thirteen
Speaker 1: and said that the book that he ended up putting together,
Speaker 1: which we'll get into the nuts and bolts of that,
Speaker 1: but he said he called it the most sublime and
Speaker 1: benevolent code of morals which has ever been offered demand. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Jesus's philosophy. Yeah, so he clearly thought a lot of
Speaker 1: of Jesus's philosophy, and he thought a lot of the
Speaker 1: Greek um philosophers and I imagine other religious philosophers as well.
Speaker 1: But what he was saying was that what Jesus had
Speaker 1: come up with was as good as it gets. He
Speaker 1: kind of bashed Plato though, did you see that? Yeah?
Speaker 1: He read Plato in the original Greek and was like
Speaker 1: many exactly he found it lackluster. Yeah. Yeah, well, I
Speaker 1: guess he's hard to please. He read the Bible and
Speaker 1: he cut it down to forty six pages. He did.
Speaker 1: Christopher Hitchins put it like this, You know, Hits, he's
Speaker 1: not he's not a big guy on religion. No, he
Speaker 1: kind of actively combats it. But yeah, um on, there's
Speaker 1: a forty six second clip on YouTube of Christopher Higgins
Speaker 1: debating somebody, and he describes the Jefferson Bible as what
Speaker 1: was left after Jefferson took a pair of scissors and
Speaker 1: cut out anything that could not buy any intelligent person
Speaker 1: be believed. It makes for a slender, convenient ready. And yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, if you take Christopher Hitchins, this is no
Speaker 1: surprise to you. If you love Christopher Hitchins, this is
Speaker 1: no surprise. Yes, But he got one thing wrong. He
Speaker 1: apparently is a razor and not scissors. Small detail. He
Speaker 1: literally he went through and was was scratching stuff out,
Speaker 1: and then I think he went back and started cutting
Speaker 1: stuff out. Well, he probably that he found himself scratching
Speaker 1: so much out he got tiresome, and he's like, I
Speaker 1: should just see cut out what I do like instead
Speaker 1: of scratching out what I don't like. Because all told,
Speaker 1: there are thirty one thousand, a hundred three Bible verses
Speaker 1: numbered Bible verses, right, but he was just doing the
Speaker 1: New Testament, so we're talking seven thousand and seven, right,
Speaker 1: and specifically the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, which there
Speaker 1: well there was more than that, but he he used
Speaker 1: a lot for Matthew and Luke two thousand, two hundred
Speaker 1: twenty two and Matthew and Luke and all told, he
Speaker 1: only had the Jefferson Bible only had nine versus. So
Speaker 1: he definitely paired down quite a bit big time. He Um,
Speaker 1: he took out everything about he and he took he
Speaker 1: took out everything about um Christ's birth, the virgin birth
Speaker 1: that was gone. He left in the crucifixion, but it
Speaker 1: ends at the burial. There's no resurrection. Yeah. Basically the
Speaker 1: last verse was um John nineteen and they ended it.
Speaker 1: His book ends with they rolled the stone in front
Speaker 1: of the sepulcher and the the end. Uh. He he
Speaker 1: left a lot of the Last Supper ing but kept
Speaker 1: the part of the Eucharist out. This is my body,
Speaker 1: my blood. Yeah. Um. So basically he just kept in
Speaker 1: basically the life and times of Jesus of Nazareth and
Speaker 1: his philosophy. Yeah. They in the article that he left
Speaker 1: what they called what he considered genuine events like the
Speaker 1: Sermon on the Mount, certain parables, the way to live
Speaker 1: your life. And see, that's always been my deal. I
Speaker 1: don't want to get too personal, but you know I
Speaker 1: was right after the last two hundred episodes that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was raised Southern Baptist and it wasn't the best
Speaker 1: experience for me. But I still say, I still maintain
Speaker 1: that the Bible has is a great moral code, and
Speaker 1: there's lots of great parables that teach you how you
Speaker 1: should act as a human. And apparently I'm in Jefferson's camp,
Speaker 1: because that's what he ended up using as Uh. He
Speaker 1: ended up calling it initially the Philosophy of Jesus of
Speaker 1: Nazareth and then change that title later to the Life
Speaker 1: and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth, right, and then uh
Speaker 1: in the edition there was a subtitle or how to
Speaker 1: get Buying Queens on a dime of day. I'll long
Speaker 1: have you been working on that one? Just now? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Shut up? So, Um, it clearly wasn't called how to
Speaker 1: Win Friends and Influence People, because he he this probably
Speaker 1: wasn't a very popular thing to do even back then.
Speaker 1: I'm sure it would have the same effect as how
Speaker 1: to Win friends and Influence people? Though. Yeah, but he
Speaker 1: did keep it quiet it Um, he said it was
Speaker 1: for himself. Again, I don't think he kept it quiet.
Speaker 1: I think he he was just keeping it for himself.
Speaker 1: I disagree with part A of the sentence you just said,
Speaker 1: but agree with part B. Thank you. Yea. I have
Speaker 1: a quote from him if you want to hear from
Speaker 1: the man himself. Uh, Josh is wrong. No, sorry, he said,
Speaker 1: I performed the operation for my own use by cutting
Speaker 1: verse by verse out of the printed book and arranging
Speaker 1: the matter, which is evidently his, and which is as
Speaker 1: easily distinguished as diamonds and a dunghill. That's kind of harsh,
Speaker 1: but he's saying that the stuff that really came from
Speaker 1: Jesus mouth is the gold, the diamonds in the dunghill.
Speaker 1: So he extracted all that and that was what he
Speaker 1: believed in. Well, yeah, he thought the Platonics were sellouts
Speaker 1: that they should have just you know, maybe not added
Speaker 1: quite so much. So what happened to it, Josh? What
Speaker 1: happened to it? Was it? Basically again, he did it
Speaker 1: for himself. Um. I think I read a reference that
Speaker 1: he did it kind of on a whim or in um. Uh.
Speaker 1: In response to a question from a friend to his
Speaker 1: Dr Benjamin Rush, he said, like, how would you characterize
Speaker 1: your view of Christianity? So he went about doing that.
Speaker 1: I think it's the idea exactly got a razor um
Speaker 1: and it was in his private library, which apparently somebody inherited,
Speaker 1: and a Smithsonian librarian came across it. What I Cerrus Adler.
Speaker 1: What I found funny was Cyrus Adler is a government employee,
Speaker 1: came across this and was like, I'm going to sell
Speaker 1: list to the Library of Congress. You know though. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they did, and they started putting it in print. Congress
Speaker 1: ordered it in print. Um. Thomas Jefferson is considered the
Speaker 1: father of the Senate. Uh. He was the first vice president. Um.
Speaker 1: So he and he wrote the rules of the Senate
Speaker 1: that are still in use today. Uh. He just did
Speaker 1: it because it was bored. One day, asked Berger's same
Speaker 1: regin he cut up the Bible yeah, um, and so
Speaker 1: Congress Um. Congress started publishing. I think it published like
Speaker 1: nine thousand copies and even still today it's um a
Speaker 1: customary welcome gift to new members of Congress. I find
Speaker 1: that interesting, like the same Congress who are like, this
Speaker 1: is a Christian nation. Yeah, but I mean it's still
Speaker 1: in there. That's that's the diamond. But it is very
Speaker 1: interesting that they would give an altered version of the
Speaker 1: Bible as a gift. Yeah, I mean it's it's not
Speaker 1: as odd as if they were to give like Alistair
Speaker 1: Crowley's memoirs, but it was definitely a little odd. When
Speaker 1: I read that, I was slightly shocked. Yeah, well it
Speaker 1: kind of comes it kind of reveals a certain disingenuousness.
Speaker 1: Done that, Yeah, a little bit possibly makes you think
Speaker 1: at least well, and then lets you know what was
Speaker 1: in Thomas Jefferson's mind, and he's easily one of the
Speaker 1: most fascinating historical figures we have. You got anything else? No,
Speaker 1: if you want to know more about the Jefferson Bible,
Speaker 1: you can read this pretty cool article by McGrath. You
Speaker 1: can find it online the whole Bible. You can do both.
Speaker 1: How about let's get some people this site first, that's true. Uh.
Speaker 1: You just type in Jefferson Bible and the handy search
Speaker 1: bart how stuff works dot com. Uh, and then after
Speaker 1: that you might as well just go read the Jefferson Bible, right, yes, yes,
Speaker 1: which leads us to listener questions. So yeah, we we
Speaker 1: put out a call on Facebook a couple of weeks
Speaker 1: ago for questions and we got bombarded. So we're actually
Speaker 1: having to do this in installments, because there are a
Speaker 1: lot of good questions. These are the really we need
Speaker 1: new questions, man, No, no, no, no, old no. These
Speaker 1: are brand new. You're lying every two weeks ago. But
Speaker 1: there's still new because we haven't used them. So we're
Speaker 1: gonna bust a lot of these pretty quickly. Chuck says,
Speaker 1: who's taller between Josh Chuckers and Jerry. Josh is the tallest,
Speaker 1: at a robust six ft or so. I'm about on
Speaker 1: the nun about five tin, Jerry, how tall are you
Speaker 1: behind the curtain? Go ahead, I've got one from Colin.
Speaker 1: Who would win in a fist fight? Ire a Glass
Speaker 1: or Josh? I think it would be a um we
Speaker 1: can actually size we sized him up physically in person now.
Speaker 1: I think it would be like a um, humiliating slap
Speaker 1: fight for both guys. I don't know that there would
Speaker 1: be a fight. Would be more like, um, do you
Speaker 1: remember Adam Goldberg in Daisy Confused? Yes? Do you remember
Speaker 1: when he's being pulled off or when when um Nikki
Speaker 1: Kat's being pulled off at him? Yeah? I think it
Speaker 1: would be like that, but both of us, both of
Speaker 1: us is Adam Goldberg? Yeah? Uh? Tripp says can you
Speaker 1: finally reveal the name of the big box appliance store
Speaker 1: that UM did not do? Chuck right with his extended warty.
Speaker 1: I don't think that that would be very smart. Do
Speaker 1: you know that? Even I don't know what it is.
Speaker 1: I don't think that would be very brand smart to do, Josh.
Speaker 1: So I'm not going to thank you trip for the question, Chuck.
Speaker 1: I'm not reading this one. So here's another one from Natalie.
Speaker 1: Would you consider doing a six degrees of separation from
Speaker 1: your listeners? I go first. My sister Kathleen went to
Speaker 1: ride Dan High School with Chuck. Kathleen egan awesome, So
Speaker 1: that's not a question. Even ends in an exclamation point.
Speaker 1: Tom says, what's it like being so old? Chuck? Tom?
Speaker 1: It is awesome? Go ahead. Okay, there's one from Hannah.
