"I have recently been examining all the known superstitions of the world, and do not find in our particular superstition (Christianity) one redeeming feature. They are all alike founded on fables and mythology."
- Thomas Jefferson
or perhaps:
"Christianity neither is, nor ever was a part of the common law."
Our founding fathers were Deists. They believed in God but also knew that there were many different ways of worshipping.
And while the Declaration of Independence mentions our "Creator", "Divine Providence" and "Nature's God", it is not 'law'. The Constitution, which is law, makes no mention of God.
