Jefferson didn't see it that way at all.
And there are no teachings as clear and demanding as the Sermon on the Mount or parables so sublime, in all of history. Which explains why many people do not become Christians. They well know their morals are not his morals, and their world-view would have to change drastically. So they make up their own stories about who Jesus was or was not, full of contradictions and logical fallacies, harder to believe than the Gospels.
And do explain how fishermen wrote such parables.
