"You implied that the framers were dishonest."

I implied no such thing. They were pragmatic.

Yes you did, you insultingly claimed that the explicit inclusion of the Creator God as the foundation of equality among men and of universal rights and freedoms was an insincere and unnecessary "bribe". Maybe in your world where the sky is a different color, bribes are honest, but most people consider them to be a sign of dishonesty. The fact is Atheism cannot provide a transcendent, objective basis for universal human rights.
