Why do you want to play this game?
The hero you quote was a great American patriot, but he spent his life defending Calvinism, and was not unbiased. That's ok by me. Calvinists evolved into the Unitarian Faith. Unitarians are Deists who go to church.

Bancroft was the son of the Reverend Aaron Bancroft who was the Calvinist minister of the Second Parish Church in Worcester. After returning to the US in 1783 he preached his Arminian doctrine and became president of the American Unitarian Association.

There is much good history in your sources, but there is also much bias. History is always biased by the author. That was true then and it is true today. I could quote from other 'celebrated' sources that give differant views, but I prefer not to play the copy and paste game.

Apples and oranges. I gave you the history. You just don't like it.
