Our President mangles a quote from a founding father to hide it's anti-religious sentiment

He somewhat quote Jefferson; I bolded the part he seemed to have forgotten...

 

May it be to the world, what I believe it will be, (to some parts sooner, to others later, but finally to all,) the signal of arousing men to burst the chains under which monkish ignorance and superstition had persuaded them to bind themselves, and to assume the blessings and security of self-government.

 

Isn't it odd that he forgot just that one line?  Then again, in one of his many discussions with God he might have been told to leave it out, because that's probably not really what Jefferson meant anyways.
