They were largely of a mind with Voltaire, a man none would seriously claim was a christian, yet he kept a priest on the payroll at his estates, had him at table, attended mass regularly and was buried in hallowed ground.

BTW He was a Catholic..a salvation by works guy..he probably thought he could live like hell and get into heaven on the basis of a few prayers and a mass

Thank God the framers believed in a sovereign God

No he wasn't. He was a Diest who pretended to Catholocism and published his Deist works anonymously.
