Furthermore, how would our Declaration of Independence look without our ‘Creator’?

We hold no truths to be self-evident, that all (men) are evolved based on chance, that they are endowed by a mindless chemical process from a mindless universal algorithm with uncertain inalienable illusions that among these are a delusion of life, and the pursuit of happenstance.

I’m sorry but so what? The fact that the Founders paid lip service to bronze-age mythology is simply good politics. Jefferson certainly was no christian and the same is true for Franklin.
