Here's another one from Jefferson:

But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods or no God. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.
-Thomas Jefferson, Notes on Virginia, 1782.

You need to spend a little longer studying the writings of the founders. They had a very clear understanding of what they meant when they talked about the need for a moral Christian people for the freedoms of this country to remain.

They were sure at some point as in most societies we would loose our Christianity and our freedoms. Looks like they were very far seeing.
