Right, only a few of them were Deists. Almost all of them were affiliated with a Christian church.

I don't know. But I do know Jefferson's beliefs about Jesus Christ were of him being a *man* divinely inspired.

Jefferson's main criticism of Christianity was of the "tricks" he believed had been played with the gospels over the centuries.

On this point, I believe he was right.

He means three of members who signed the DOI were deists. That's what the revisionists mean by most.
