As to Jefferson, though he was unorthodox in his beliefs (was a unitarian in fact, though not a member of that denomination), he was seems to have been devout in his own way.

After his retirement to Monticello, Jefferson continued to attend church services, riding into town on horseback carrying a small folding chair of his own invention. He described these services in a letter to Thomas Cooper: "The court house is our common temple.
