So, in your view, George Washington and most of the founding fathers of the USA were godless idiots?
Folks here must think those old Founders were real stupid, too.
The Founding Fathers were mostly deists—which meant they believed in God.
However most key figures were also Masons—which at the upper levels is a very complex worldview far removed from the comfort zone of almost all Freepers.
It is obvious from this thread that most folks here have absolutely no idea what that worldview looked like.
Folks really need to read Manley Hall.
