Hmmm....John Locke died in 1704.
Unlike silly theists today his views may have morphed over time as indicated above. Nonetheless, he was long mouldered in his grave by the time Voltaire and Jefferson were demonstrating xtian beliefs to be the bullshit that they are.
Calling Locke a Deist is like calling Darwin a molecular biologist. Things moved along after both their deaths.
Unfortunately, xtian asswipes can't ever see things advancing. Comes from having your head buried in that stupid fucking bible of yours.
Quote:Some scholars have seen Locke's political convictions as deriving from his religious beliefs.[36][37][38] Locke's religious trajectory began in Calvinist trinitarianism, but by the time of the Reflections (1695) Locke was advocating not just Socinian views on tolerance but also Socinian Christology; with veiled denial of the pre-existence of Christ.
