The vast majority of America's founders and framers were Bible-believing, God-fearing, Christian people. Their original intent for America was for its inhabitants to choose God; not to reject Him or remove Him from the public eye.

The Deism Myth

Atheists, agnostics, and deists like to claim that America's founders were deists.  Is this true, though?  There is an easy way to tell.  Are their quotes and words indicating an impersonal, unknowable god that has nothing to do with everyday affairs?

The god of deism is not the biblical God.  Certain quotes that are vague can seemingly refer to a deistic god, however the specific quotes that contradict the qualities of a deistic god must interpret the vague quotes.

When we look at the statements from the Founding Fathers above, we can see that they address Christianity, the biblical God, a personal God, a knowable God, a reigning God, etc.  These are not words that are conducive to deism.  They contradict deism and reveal a belief in the biblical God of Christianity.  Consequently, it is a myth that most of America's founders were deists.  In fact, atheists, agnostics, and deists will be hard-pressed to prove that even one of our founders was a deist.
