Jefferson was a Deist and a believer in the Natural Law, which he used to argue slavery issues. In other words, Jefferson assumed an order. My earlier comments were directed at the nihilist, like Nietzsche.
The Abrahamic religions do teach that men are inherently equal. I think this is what he meant by "democratic." I'm not aware of this idea translating into political democracy in the Muslim world.
If I were to read something from this philosopher, what would you recommend?
