Spirited: Are you helpless? Are you incapable of seeking truth? No, you’re not. Titus Quinctius Cincinnatus even did your work for you, yet by the very fact that your chosen ‘tactics’ are to ignore Cincinnatus’s response and to fall back on uncouth quibbling reveals that truth is offensive to you.
You make wholly unsupported assertions, and the fault is mine for not researching them? The assertion is that "a majority of the founders turned on him". You'll need references to writings from a majority of the founders to support that. That's a long way from what TQC posted, and even that doesn't leave the impression that Franklin had "turned on him".
Your arguments seem to suggest that the Founders considered Paine no friend or ally because of his religious beliefs. If that's the case then what they did was cynically accept his support and the public support for the revolution that his writings invoked among the populace, and the "threw him under the bus" once the obejctive had been obtained.
