Infidels is an unreliable source of information.

The primary leaders of the so-called founding fathers of our nation were not Bible-believing Christians; they were deists.

Where have you been - I've posted about the religious affiliations of the FF's - one and only one was a Deist.

Three were Unitarians either officially or in fact. There was however a big difference between Unitarians of that day and Deists. Two of the known Unitarians clearly did not agree with the tenets of Deism you listed.

Other important founding fathers who espoused Deism were George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Ethan Allen, James Madison, and James Monroe."

Franklin was the only Deist in this list. There's no evidence Washington, Madison, or Monroe were. I don't know about Ethan Allen, but I consider him irrelevant as he had nothing to do with our founding documents. As Pain did not either.
