I agree with you. I have looked for religious reference in Madison's notes on the Constitutional Convention. There is almost nothing there -- certainly nothing that suggests Christianity. There are a few sentences about "religious tests never being required" and "oath of the president (a godless oath)." I could hardly imagine that most of these people were Christians.
As to Jefferson, he didn't deny the divinity of Jesus, he simply said he had some doubts about it.
