I wouldn't say so. It just goes to show that the church has collapsed into liberal BS.
Jefferson of course is a noted 'infidel'. He called himself a Christian but wrote his own Bible without the miracles and is often said by secularists to be a deist. Washington, to a lesser extent, is said to be apostate.
The idea the Founders were mostly non-Christian though is easily disproved garbage. Basically Franklin, Jefferson, Ethan Allen, and Thomas Paine were the 'deists'.
Basically the colonial establishment were all a bunch of rich Anglicans-Episcopalians. The revolutionary core were Puritans-Congregationalists but the Church of England types were such rich fucks that they outnumbered the Puritan offspawns even among revolutionaries.
-------------- Sir Edward Creasy, The Fifteen Decisive Battles of the World: From Marathon to Waterloo (1851):
"The five northern colonies of Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and Vermont, usually classed together as the New England colonies, were the strongholds of the insurrection against the mother country. The feeling of resistance was less vehement and general in the central settlement of New York, and still less so in Pennsylvania, Maryland, and the other colonies of the South, although everywhere it was formidably strong. But it was among the descendants of the stern Puritans that the spirit of Cromwell and Vane breathed in all its fervor. it was from the New Englanders that the first armed opposition to the British crown had been offered; and it was by them that the most stubborn determination to fight to the last, rather than waive a single right or privilege, had been displayed. In 1775 they had suceeded in forcing the British troops to evacuate Boston; and the events of 1776 had made New York (which the Royalists captured in that year) the principal basis of operations for the armies of the mother country."
