Let me refer you to the Jefferson Bible:

Jefferson went to great if sloppy efforts to remove, by blade and ink, all references he considered supernatural, and therefore unreasonable. He was a devotee of the Age of Reason, and a Humanist, and an atheist.

What about Thomas Jefferson and Ben Franklin, weren't they diests?  Many of the colonists, especially in the northern states came here to avoid being persecuted for NOT being Anglicans.  Quakers, Catholics, Baptists, etc.
