RELIGION OF THE FOUNDING FATHERS OF THE USA Were most of the signers of the American Constitution irreligious? Here are the facts? “The signers of the Declaration of Independence were a profoundly intelligent, religious and ethically-minded group. Four of the signers of the Declaration of Independence were current or former full-time preachers, and many more were the sons of clergymen. Other professions held by signers include lawyers, merchants, doctors and educators.”
The above quote and stats have been taken from the very enlightening site, “Religion of the Founding Fathers,” which I highly recommend. See URL below. http://www.adherents.com/gov/Founding_Fathers_Religion.html (Viewed May 19, 2008)
