The Founding Fathers were deists, not theists.  They believed in a
Creator, not the xian god.

I never suggested otherwise.  They acknowledged the existence of God without
necessarily endorsing a particular brand of religion's understanding of Him.

They didn't say "God."  The closest they got was "Creator."  I think
that's a big difference.

You are arguing semantics.
