Sorry but most of them just weren't all that religious. Not Franklin, not Washington, and not Jefferson. They weren't anti-religion but they just weren't too religious for the most part.

I'd like to prove you wrong but I cleared my web cache which contained a wealth of links and facts which were nicely assembled by poster "Manny Festo". He's been banned I guess. Shame... another great resource and good conservative. There were 55 founding fathers. You got 2 of them right, but 2 is NOT a majority nor is it typical of the founding fathers. Washington was profoundly religious yet not vocal (private) about it. A lot of nothing has been made about Washington never publically given witness to Christ in church by contemporaneous sources. His writings and speeches, unlike Jefferson, contradict that.

I don't think Franklin or Adams were Fundamentalists either. Add to that Hamilton as well.
